In a recent paper Rogers [13] has discussed packings of equal spheres in n-dimensional space and has shown that the density of such a packing cannot exceed a certain ratio σn. In this paper, we discuss coverings of space with equal spheres and, by using a method which is in some respects dual to that used by Rogers, we show that the density of such a covering must always be at least
