Eclipse

A whole page taken with a new discovery in physics.

Eclipse observations confirm Einstein's theory of relativity.

Anything about it in your paper? The author.

Yes, here's a cartoon on it by McCutcheon.

This apparent displacement of the stars is known as the aberration of light, was explained by Fresnel in 1818, to everybody's satisfaction until recently, on the assumption that all space is filled with an immovable medium, the aether, which transmits the rays of light in straight lines in the form of wave motion, and that the earth moves through the aether without displacing it.

somewhat as an airplane moves through still air but the aviator knows how fast he is moving by the current of air streaming back in his face why then since the ether is in perfect repose could we not determine the absolute motion of the earth through space by measuring the drift of the ether as it streams through the pores of the earth light appears to afford us a means of measuring such a drift of the ether through matter if there be such since light is conveyed by the ether we should naturally expect it to take less time to travel a certain distance if the receiving instrument is carried toward the source of the light by the earth motion than if it is being carried away from it this question was put to the crucial test by two american physicists michelson and morley who devised an instrument so delicate that it could detect differences of one twenty five million of an inch in the path of a light-ray but although this delicacy was ten times greater than was necessary to detect the ther drift if there were any no evidence of such drift could be discovered END OF SECTION 7

The Eclipse Observations In the history of science, the year 1919 is likely to be known, not as the year of the overthrow of the German Empire, but as the year of the overflow of Newton's law of gravitation.

The British astronomers who went to Africa to observe the eclipse of the sun, May 29, 1919, came back with the proof that a ray of light passing close by the Sun is bent out of its straight course.

And we hosted a few festivals.

The Eclipse came through during that time.

And so we had a big Eclipse festival.

We had lots of campers

and

stuff around here.

And we cloud busted the Eclipse.

It was so cool.

38.

Right? 38, huh? We got Eclipse coming.

We got Eclipse 38 of Saurus 136 coming up next year, which looks to be the singularity supernova.

And then death.

The word death equals 38.
