1795. 4f). Nich. I. 8. Ph. M. V. 



Thinks the sun an opaque body, possibly inhabited, 

 covered with an atmosphere in which clouds of a luminous 

 matter are floating, and the spots interruptions of these 

 clouds ; of these clouds he thinks there are two strata, of 

 which the upper only is luminous, and the under stratum 

 he supposes to protect the body of the sun from their heat. 



Herschel on the nature of the sun. Ph. tr. 



1801. 265, 354. 



Endeavours to show that the variation of heat of diflerent 

 years is owing to the more or less copious supply of fuel in 

 the sun, which constitutes his spots.

 is 243° 52' so", and the north polar distance 40° 22', 1805.

 a beginning, and must have an end.
