Show n NY PLANET IS NEW MEMBER Latest Discovery Is But Fifteen Miles In Diameter Buenos Aires. Dr. Hartmann, director direc-tor of the La Plata observatory, says that the orbit of the little planet he discovered on November 4, the constellation constel-lation of Cetus, lies between the orbits f the planets Jupiter and Mars.- The orbit Is eliptlcal and is covered in five fears and Beven months. It has the considerable eccentricity of 0.272. As the plane of the orbtt Is very inclined in-clined in regard to the earth's equator, equa-tor, the new planet can approach the poles closer than most of the other planets. The little world may be observed from the end of this year until the fall of 1923 in a very northern position, most favorable for observations from the northern hemisphere. |
