Astronomy Notes
By OLAF HALVERSON
The New Year findiTus close to
the time of the winter solstices,
when tiie sun describes its lowest'
arc across the sky. It is approxi
mately 23Vfe* south of the equator.
The shadows of all objects are
now the longest -and soon after
midday the sun sends out a beau
tiful reddish glow across the Ber
ing Sea.
Sometimes when atmospheric
conditions are favorable, there are
mirages on the horizon. The gold
en-reddish rays of the sun illum
inating the mirage must remind
one of the Eternal City of Para
dise.
Looking northward upon the
range of mountains, we will no
tice they are clothed in beautiful
rich colors of red and purple.
Thus while the days are cold and
short we,do fin'd a sunset grand
eur all about us. The willows
along the creeks are highly dec
orated with sparkling frost crys
tals.
The New Year in the southern
hemisphere \ has an entirely dif
ferent aspect. The people there
have recently celebrated the long
est day of the year in midsummer
picnics and are now experiencing
their warmest days.
