ANIMAL SECRETS (NBC, 7-7:30 p.m.). Is there "Life on Other Planets"? Until we can see for ourselves, we can only look at the evidence - such as meteorites from outer space that are remarkably earthlike in composition - and speculate, as does Anthropologist Dr. Loren Eiseley, that there are millions of planets as well suited to life as our own.

...time Lunar Orbiter 5 finishes snapping its 426 pictures this week, space experts should have even more to crow about. The last of the Orbiters is taking detailed pictures of lunar features such as the Aristarchus crater, a thermally anomalous "hot spot" that has long provoked scientific interest and speculation. Lunar Orbiter 5 has also sent back photographs indicating a likely future landing site near a permanently shaded area in a region adjacent to the Lunar North Pole. "In such shaded areas," says Harold Masursky, of the U.S. Geological Survey at Menlo Park, Calif., "we can find out what...

Hopper adds that Parchman is hardly progressive in any other way; as a prison farm, it simply has more space for informality than conventional prisons with centralized cell blocks...
...York, with some 50,000 working artists, can lay claim to being the art center of the world. But almost to a man, artists are plagued by a common problem: lack of light and space big enough to serve as studios. The fact that the art community continues to swell and that works these days grow ever larger only exacerbates the problem. To get a space big enough to work in, Painter Mark Rothko, for instance, once took over the gymnasium of a no longer used Bowery high school. Helen Frankenthaler, who ordinarily works out of an East Side brownstone...
