ACROSS THE DIVIDE
1.
Crossing the divide (Abyss) we encounter other systems of about
25,000,000,000, or the first magnitude. Our most powerful glass
reaches the 16th.
Magnitude is very uneven and irregular, and beyond this there is no
end.
2.
Many constellations have more than one sun, while others are double,
quadruple, and multiple. It is estimated a brilliant star, and can be
seen; of these over a million have been catalogued and only about 25
whose distance have been measured.
