Abstract

WHITING from Ocean Island, Central Pacific, a correspondent, whose name we regret to be unable to decipher, suggests that the white spot recently observed on the planet Saturn might consist of water which has been raised from lower levels into a region where it would solidify into ice-floes or snow-fields. He adds, “The white spot may represent the result of a widespread heating of the lower Saturnian atmosphere and consist of a continent of ice floating in air, buoyed up above its normal level by rising air beneath it.”
