Abstract
I HAVE been very much interested in Mr. Lockyer's lecture at the Royal Institution on the late eclipse. I am especially glad that he is at length able to acknowledge the existence of comparatively cool hydrogen, because in my Eclipse Report of 1868 (vol. xxxvii. Part 1, R.A.S. Memoirs), I stated that I believed from the evidence of the photographs that hydrogen was dispersed from the prominences in visible streams in some cases, and in others invisibly.
