Excerpt from On the Conservation of Solar Energy: A Collection of Papers and Discussions
Statement of M. Faye's objections, p. 71. By means of a hypothetical bent tube extending from the Sun in the polar and equatorial directions, it is shown how, if the equatorial branch is supposed to revolve, the matter within it must become lighter and cause a continuous flow into the polar tube, p. 72, the power necessary to maintain the current being derived from solar rotation, p. 73.
Analogous but inverse conditions on the earth to the solar spots, in the form of an equatorial or trade-wind current giving rise in our latitudes to cyclones, p. 74 cause of the deviation of the Sun-spots in latitude is the less resistance in the polar direction, p. 75.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the idea that the Sun's energy is maintained by a cycle of interaction with its surrounding space. The author proposes that gases like hydrogen and oxygen, which exist in space in a very thin state, are drawn towards the Sun's polar regions by its rotation. These gases then heat up and combust, releasing energy in the form of heat. The products of combustion, such as water vapor and carbon dioxide, are pushed towards the Sun's equator and then out into space. In this way, the Sun's energy is constantly being renewed by the combustion of gases drawn in from space. The book challenges the traditional view that the Sun's energy comes from its own internal heat, and it presents a new theory that could change our understanding of how stars work.
