Scientific paper

IN NATURE of January 26, 1929, p. 127, a communication appeared dealing with the variation of latitude with the moon's position. Attention was directed to small variations of less than a tenth of a second of arc, determined from Gaithersburg observations, which appeared to be correlated with the hour angle and altitude of the moon. While in this preliminary note a marked dependence was exhibited of the magnitude of the latitude residuals upon the moon's position with respect to the observer at the time the zenith telescope observations were made, no direct attempt was made to separate the dependence of the moon's hour angle from that of the moon's declination.
