IN your issue of June 16, Prof. Schuster calls attention to the fact that the wave-length of the aurora line nearly coincides with the wave-length of the bright green line in the spectrum of krypton. Prof. Ramsay and Dr. Travers give the wave-length of this line as 5566.3. I find it to be 5570.40 (Rowland's scale), which brings the line close to the mean of the best determinations of the aurora line. According to Scheiner (``Die Spectralanalyse der Gestirne'') the best measures, when reduced to Rowland's scale, are:-
