# Jupiter Now Prominent

A total lunar eclipse and Jupiter's shining appearance in southern skies, studded with an unusual number of bright stars, highlight December evenings.

By JAMES STOKLEY

SHINING MORE BRIGHTLY than any other planet—or any star—visible on evenings of December, the planet Jupiter is now very prominent in the southern sky. It adds to the splendor of a region containing an unusually large number of bright stars.

The accompanying maps show the appearance of the heavens in December about 10:00 p.m., your own kind of stand

blue waves are scattered, which make the daytime sky look blue. Thus the light that passes through and shines on the moon has a higher proportion of red than normally, giving the eclipsed moon its characteristic color.

If there are thick layers of high clouds in the part of the atmosphere through which the sunlight passes, much of it may be cut off, and the eclipsed moon will be darker than usual. Occasionally the moon may disappear completely, as it did at a total eclipse of the moon a year ago. This one, however, will probably not be as dark.

Scientifically a total lunar eclipse is of rela

November 16, 1964--Buenos Aires, Argentina--Argentina Astronomers at San Miguel Observatory were puzzled because of an elongated, flattened and red UFO that crossed the observatory's telescope range in four minutes, whereas normal artificial satellites take roughly 18 minutes. This UFO moved at 4½ times the speed of an ordinary man-made satellite.

# Bright Globe Over Wisconsin

A radio announcer, a housewife and a streetsweeper operator at Marshfield, Wisconsin, apparently viewed the same UFO over that town in the early morning hours of 17 November 1964.

A housewife described a "round, bright object", "3 or 4 feet in diameter", of a yellowish hue, which she observed at 1:30 a. m. and again at 4:30 a. m. She said it moved from southeast to north, then retraced its path.

Radio announcer Jack Thornton said he also observed it at 1:30 a. m. and h
