Moon's main motion by the circular refraction of the sun's
gravitation waves, as they are propagated through the solid body
of our earth at the time of lunar eclipses.'

" 'I found also from dealings with capillary forces that
quicksilver is indeed very resistant to the waves which produce
molecular action, and this developed a new theory of the
depression of the mercury in capillary tubes. This would tend
to confirm Maiorana's claim that a basin of mercury beneath a
suspended mass of lead may decrease the gravitation of the lead
by a small amount. My researches on ether show conclusively
that gravitation is due to waves in the ether, and certain very
resistant bodies in the line of action may thus introduce a
slight screening effect.'

"This reasoning opens up new avenues of thought of what may be
accomplished in the future when we have found a perfect screen
against gravitation."

Another subject of importance, that takes no little time to
understand by the Martian student is the part played by the
planet's satellites in the generation of Electro-Magnetic
energy. The sun together with its circulating family of planets
is a huge Electric motor, so a planet and its satellites are
minor generators of Electric energy. Satellites have a higher
importance and necessity than the mere creation of moonshine.

All the planets have their satellites, although your astronomers
have not yet discovered any in the case of Mercury and Venus.
The latter planet has a satellite whose distance is so close to
