YOUR AND A HALF MILLION

STARS.

Addressing the members of the Royal Socisty recently on co-operation among soi- entiste, Professor Schuster mentioned that as a result of the international survey uti the hearone 4,500,000 stars have been recorded by photography, exagainst 342,000 catalogued belete this stupalous work was! undertaken. It is hardly likely, however, that all theen stars with tw catalogued, as the delegates at the Paris Conference 19 years ago decided only to catalogue down To the eleventh guitude, though the pistes pho

show stars threo magnitudes fainter. Seventeen different nationalities have been co-operating in the production of this astrographic catalogue, each separato obe- ervatory being allotted a definite zone of the heavens, and being responsible for the reproduction of its own photographic plates and the compilation of the companion extalogue.
