The Water Problem." vol. 75 (June 1895): 749-758; "Mars. III. Canals." vol. 76 (July 1895): 106-119; "Mars. IV. Oases." vol. 76 (August 1895): 223-235 I. ATMOSPHERE. AMID the seemingly countless stars that on a clear night spangle the vast dome overhead, there appeared last autumn to be a new-comer, a very large and ruddy one, that rose at sunset through the haze about the eastern horizon. That star was the planet Mars, so conspicuous when in such position as often to be taken for a portent. Large as he then looked, however, he is in truth but a secondary planet traveling round a secondary sun; but his interest for us is out of all proportion to his actual size or his relative importance in the cosmos. For that sun is our own; and that planet is, with the exception of the moon, our next to nearest neighbor in space, Venus alone ever approaching us closer. From him, therefore, of all the heavenly bodies, may we expect first to learn something beyond celestial mechanics, beyond even celestial chemistry; something in answer to the mute query that man instinctively makes as he gazes at the stars, whether there be life in worlds other than his own. Hitherto the question has received no affirmative reply, although the trend of all latter-day investigation has been to such affirmation; for science has been demonstrating more and more clearly the essential oneness of the universe. Matter proves to be common property. We have learnt that the very same substances with which we are familiar on this our earth, iron, magnesium, calcium, and the rest, are present in the far-off stars that strew the depths of space. Nothing new under the sun! Indeed, there is nothing new above it but ever-varying detail.

Extractions: Percival Lowell Observatory By Bill Jamieson A family wedding in Arizona gave me the opportunity to visit this observatory known to most of us as the place where Percival Lowell thought he saw canals on Mars. Strangely though, the tourist publicity handouts made no mention of his Mars observations and his much-publicised theories on ancient Martian civilisations and their desperate efforts to irrigate their dying planet. This information could only be had in booklets in the excellent observatory bookshop and by talking to the volunteers who manned the public tours It transpires that Lowell was a member of a wealthy East Coast family, and graduated with an honours degree in mathematics from Harvard University in 1876. After spending ten years in Japan and Korea as a travel writer and diplomat he was looking for a new interest to occupy his many talents, when he was inspired by the Italian astronomer Schiaparellis study of the surface markings on Mars. Schiaparelli had described these lines by the Italian word canali , which was mis-translated by Lowell and others as canals, leading to one of the most blatant misinterpretations of observational data in the history of astronomy.

Extractions: Astrónomo Autodidacta. Percival Lowell (1855 - 1916). se graduó con distinción en Matemáticas en Harvard en 1876, viajo por varios años por todo el lejano oriente antes de comenzar sus estudios en astronomía. Se intereso principalmente por Marte y sus canales, como había sido descritos por el astrónomo italiano Schiaparelli. En 1894 fundó el Observatorio Lowell en Flagstaff, Arizona. Su localización geográfica a mas de 1500 metros de altura en un clima desértico lo hicieron un sitio excelente para la observación de Marte . Durante 15 años de intenso estudio del planeta rojo, cuya superficie el estudio y dibujó detalladamente, Lowell estaba convencido y presionó para que se aceptase la presencia de una red de finos canales en su superficie. Concluyó que las zona brillantes observadas eran desiertos y que las zonas oscuras correspondían a zonas de vegetación y que el agua proveniente de sus capas de hielo polar fluían a través de los canales hacia las regiones ecuatoriales del globo marciano. El hipotetizó que los canales habían sido construidos por seres inteligentes que alguna vez habitaron al planeta. Sus publicaciones: Mars Mars and Its Canals (1906), y
