Abstract
AT the present moment—7 p.m. February 16—the zodiacal light is more distinct than L ever remember to have seen it in England. The middle of the base is about 2° to the northward of the point where the sunset, and the axis is directed towards the Pleiades, and can be traced as far as the middle of Aries. The afternoon has been remarkably clear, and it is now a brilliant starlight evening.
