Excerpt from Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Vol. 23: From May, 1887, to May, 1888Prof. John Christopher Draper published a paper in the Ameri can Journal of Science for 1878, in which he stated his conviction that oxygen exists in the sun, but his line of argument was just the reverse of that of Dr. H. Draper. While the latter apparently proved the existence of oxygen in the sun by the coincidence of its bright lines with bright spaces in the solar spectrum, the former was led to believe that the bright oxygen lines coincided with dark lines in the sun.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
