VISIBLE SPACE TO GROW 30-FOLD

Telescopic power 10 times as great as that given by the 100-inch reflecting telescope of the Mt. Wilson Observatory, now the largest in the world, will be at the disposal of astronomers when the 200-inch reflector of the California Institute of Technology is completed. It will penetrate three times as far into space as the 100-inch, and bring into view a globular region of space 30 times the volume of that reached by present-day telescopes.
