Show New Giant Stars Detected By Use Of Infra-Red Ray Huge stars, invisible to the human eye, are reported to have been lined up along the outer edge of the Milky Way, according accord-ing to reports received by the American Astronomical Society. The invisible stars were detected de-tected by heat rays a few months ago, but prior to that time their presence was unknown and un suspected. Astronomers J. J. Nassau and G; B. Van Albada, of Cleveland, said that the stars were discovered by using infrared infra-red rays in the same way that American troops detected Japanese Jap-anese soldiers by the heat of their enemies' bodies. The astronomers report that the stars are gigantic and so large that if the sun were placed in the center of one of them, there would be ample room for the earth to continue its revolutions revolu-tions around the sun, 93,000,000 miles away and still be well inside in-side the border of the star, whose diameter is estimated to be 200,-000,000 200,-000,000 miles. |
