ON April 26, 1955, the moon's position was favourable for the observation from England of the passage of the moon across the large-diameter radio source in the constellation of Gemini. This radio source, No. 2C.537 of the Cambridge survey1, having R.A. 06h. 13m. 37s. and Dec. 22° 38' (1950.0), has been identified by Baldwin and Dewhirst2 as the galactic nebulosity IC.443, photographs of which, taken with the 48-in. Schmidt camera, at Palomar, reveal a filamentary structure contained within a circular region of 24.5' radius.
