=T: The author gives the most probable values of the light constant of
ti,he Sun (134,000 lux) and of the Moon 0.342 lux), obtained after a critical re-
vLew of all the determinations that have been published. The high random error
in tne cuoted numbers (up to �10%) is pointed out by the author; tl~is error is
due to the insufficient precision,of the extra-atmospheric values of illumination,
obtained by extrapolation with the aid of the Bouguer "long" method. In this
connection, the author considers that a further accumulation of data obtained by
the old methods cannot lead to any substantial progress; therefore, measurements
of solar and lunar light must be made outside of the atmosphere.

TEXT: Some directions of future research onnoctilucent clouds are
considered on the basis of the work carried out during the IGY and
IGC period. The visual registration of noctilucent-cloud appearan-
ces, in pursuit of the problem of studying these formations from
the climatologic point of view, is foreseen. The next aim consists
of the fact that the preliminary processing of the results of the
observations for 1957, 1958, and 1959 has to be completed. Such pro-
-essing consists of calculating for all stations the number of
nights and the number of separate observational periods during which
noctilucent clouds were visible. After this the problem arises of

changing from the apparent to the true distribution of the clouds,
i,e. of establishing the frequency of the appearance of these ob-
jects. Since the work fulfilled along the lines of the IGY and IGO
is part of the international research program, theresults obtained
should be placed at the disposal of the scientists of all. countrie
on an exchange basis, Such an exchange of material is being made
1hrough International Data Centers (IDC) which accomplish the col.--
lection, storage and propagation of the results of all kinds of
observations. The results of noctilucent-cloud observations are
being transmitted to the IDC in two forms. The former, denoted as
"form IGY-1-s", contains the information for every station about
the number of observational periods in which the degree of the
dawn see~tor's enclosure by clouds of the underlying layers was ex-
pressed in a definite system. The presented material can be used
lor various statistical and climatologic investigations of the
conditions of noctilucent-cloud appearances. The latter, denoted
as "form IGY-2-s",, is a catalog of all instances of visibility,

TITLE: Three questions - twenty-four answers
PERIODICAL: Nauka i zhiznl, no. 3, 1961, 25
TEXT: For the author the comparison of the macroscopic
structure of the surface on both lunar hemispheres seems to be a
most interesting study. Following Galileo's views, he believes,
on the basis of photometric studies that the Moon's structure is
rough, with steep walls and sharp, serrated edges. Photos of the
reverse side indicate that this side is just as pitted and serrat-
ed as the visible one. Since dust could not maintain the physical
shapes recorded on the Moon's surface, and any material would slide X,
down the slopes beyond a certain angle, the Moon's surface is con- V
sidered to be composedof solid material and not of a thick layer
of dust, as had been previously believed. Furthermore, the time

rockets will take live pictures upon impact and will haul samples
of lunar surface material back to Earth.

.TEXT: The author proposes a scheme for observations of noctilucent clouds.
1) Observations should be carried out only during clear or almost clear weather;
2) Duration of time, expressed in days, hours or terms of records in which the.
number of occurrence of noctilucent clouds was' observed, should be explicitly
noted. The observational program should be somewhat different for individual Iob-
servers and amateur teams, but the method of processing of observations should
secure, at least approximately, the frequency value of appearance of noctilucent
clouds. Attention of observer teams should be concentrated on observations with
instruments and on photographing noctilucent clouds. Photographs should provide

TITLE, A Lithological Interpretation of the Photometric and
Colorimetric Studies of Mars
PERIODICALz Astronomicheskiy zhurnal, 1961, Vol-38,No.2, pp.267-272
,rEXT, The albedo of isolated parts of the Martian surface was
measnred using a visual polarizing astrophotometer.
The method employed was similar to that described earlier by the
present author (Ref.1) and N, N. Sytinskaya (Ref.2). The method
consists in the comparison of the brightness of details on the
Martian disc with the brightness of a white scattering screen
having a knoim brightness coefficient and illuminated by direct
solar radiation only, The screen was placed at a sufficiently
large distance from the telescope. Such observations were carried
out in 1956 using the visual tube of the normal astrograph of the
Tashkentskaya astronomicheskaya observatoriya (Tashkent Astronomical
Observatory). The colour of the details was measured with the
same instrument using a blue wedge. In 1958 the observations were
repeated at Leningrad, Since the climatic conditions precluded

direct comparison with solar light, the bright 13mb of the Moon was
used as the comparison object. The results obtained are practic-
ally identical with those obtained in 1956 in Tashkent (V.V.Sbaronov,
Ref.6). Specimens of minerals and rocks were then examined in
the laboratory using the same instrument in conjunction with a
short-focus objective, The specimens were illuminated by a
special lamp, whose output was similar to solar radiation. The
results of the photometric and colorimetric observations of the
Martian surface made during 1956 and 1958 were then compared with
the results obtained for these specimens. It was found that the
albedo and the colour excess of sand and other materials in the
top layers of terrestrial deserts and also red coloured rocks of
the Permian formation and the dense varieties of limonite are not
similar to the Martian continents, since the red colour of the
latter is more saturated. Only ocher, i.e. a variety of limonite,
was found to be approximately similar in colour to the Martian
disc. It is suggested that the Martian continents are covered by
a layer of loose, soft silt, consisting either of particles of pure
limonite or some other particles containing large amounts of this

mineral, The latter when convected in the atmosphere produce the
orange haze, the development of which was characteristic of the
1956 opposition. Limonite dust particles are very small and
their sedimentation rate is low. It follows that the orange haze
which may be due to them should be very persistent and this is in
agreement with the 1956 observations, There are 1 table and
13 references, 10 Soviet and 3 ncn-Soviet.

stantsiya (Kamchatka Volcanic Station) at Klyuchi. The work was
initially centered on the Avachinskiy and Koryakskiy volcanos.
Photometric reflection studies by N. S. Orlova's method were
limited by wet weather. Samples were therefore sent back to be
tested at the AOLGU. In thd.second region studied, on the slope
of the Klyuchevskiy volcan6j'at the KarpinskiyZavaritskiy,

were again collected for laboratory tests. Themain object of
these tests was to discover whqther the samples possess correspord-.1

TfUN-3LATION: To compare the reflectivity of terrestrial surfaces with those of
the Moon, studies were carried out in July-August 1962 pn the slopes of the
Avachinskiy and Klyuchevskiy volcanos. The tri3atment of the photometric measure-
ments has not yet been completed. The following conclusions may now be drawn,
however: 1), the areatest resemblance to the lunar surface is offered by volcanic
slag which has a very low albedo (0.03-0.1), as well as a similar reflection
indicatrix; 2) volcanic ash is sharply distinct from the lunar surface, since it,:-.
is of light color (albedo 0-25-0-35)- In addition, the ash smooths out the

,relief and alters the character of reflection; 3) the results of observations are
an argument against the existence of crushed materials on :the Moon, and thereby
against Gold's dust hypothesis. L. R.

ABSTRACT: The author considers .,statistical reduction of regular. observations'of
noctilucent clouds mado'at the SSSR meteorological network of stations during the
International GeoplWslcal Year. Visibility conditions are a source of difficulty
since the clouds of this type may be observed only*during a cer,6aiin twilight
in U~ erval, only when the sky is suf f iciently clear,- and only at stations far s outh
of the lowest points of the clouds. This means. that the stations record only a
small part of the actual number of noctilucent clouds. And the same cloud may be -
observed at several stations. In maeing calculations on appearance frequency of
Card 1/2
ACCESSION NR: AT3012191
iioctilucent clouds, it is therefor'e necessary to consider visib-ility conditions
for such clouds. Only, the geometric aspect of visibility of noctilucent clouds,
which are in that zone above the earth's surface such that they are above the
horizon of a given station and are illuminated by the sun, can be easily solved.
A nwnber of different types of-diagrammatic maps-have been drawn to indicate
position of the zone of possible visibility of noctilucent cloude in the celestial
sphere at a given point, to show zones on the earth's. surface occupied by stations
that may see the cloud, and to,show zones characterized by the fact that the noc-
tilucent clouds are visible from a given station. Application of the general
theory of visibility to noctilucent clouds requires a caldulation of brightness
contrasts made by cloud brightness together with brightness of the twilight sky
and an application of different parameters from the field of physiological optics
(particularly the contrast sensitivity threshold of ey~ vision). A complete arA
exact solution of this Droblem is rather difficult at thepresent time. Orig. art.
