...daily photography of the sun's surface. The measurement of the sun spots, which are regions of electrical disturbances or storms on the surface of the sun, is being carried out in cooperation with the Mt. Wilson Observatory, the Yerkes Observatory, and the United States Naval Observatory," Professor Stetson said...
...best. For the measurement of radio reception we have made use of a superhetrodyne receiver with multiple stage amplification together with a self-recording galvanometer. A local oscillator with controlled output makes possible the exact calibration of the entire receiving circuit prior to each night's observations," Professor Stetson continued...

...which may be due to a combination of causes. Theoretically a small tide must take place in the earth's crust as the moon revolves about the earth. But from other considerations it is not thought that this can be sufficiently large to account for the observed effect. Professor Stetson is now considering the possible effect of a tidal wave in the earth's atmosphere caused by the moon which may alter the apparent direction of the ray of light from a star and produce the effect noted. The most direct interpretation is that of a shift in the earth...
