Becently, however Professor Ed- dington, of Cambridge, subjected the tail of the Moorhouse comet to mathematical analysis, and came toj the conclusion that the hypothetical repellent force of the sun would have to be so zemerdons that the theory must be abandoned.

An alternative theory is that the matter of the tail comes from the sun, : and is similar to what produces the solar corona and the Zodiacal Light.
