Last October 28 a German astronomer, Dr. Karl Reinmuth of Heidelberg, noticed a faint white streak against the dark background of an astronomical photograph. A similar streak was discovered on a plate exposed at Johannesburg in South Africa.

Most British and many U. S. universities sorrowfully refused.
