Abstract

I THINK a few notes relating to the recent sunsets may still have an interest for some readers of NATURE. Notwithstanding the length of time these remarkable phenomena have been apparent, the sunsets of January 11 and 12 were as brilliant as regards the second after-glow as any that have preceded them, the final glow having lasted on the 12th till 5.55; while the sun set that evening at 4.12.
