Elderly Mr. Guggenheim found the Baroness charming, her collection of non- objective paintings stimulating. Quickly he was brought to see the error of his previous collecting, began to assemble red triangles, green circles, pink and lavender blobs by such non-objectivists as Vasily Kandinsky, Rudolf Bauer, Ladislaus Moholy-Nagy.

Wilson Observatory have come to quite a different conclusion as to the size of the particles in the vast dust cloud of the Orion Nebula. In this case the particles scatter the blue and yellow-green components of the light of stars in the cloud, letting only long infra-red rays filter through. Hence the stars appear much redder than normal. The wave lengths Baade & Minkowski recorded convinced them that the dust grains in the nebula were about .000004 inch in diameter...
