It is now seen more clearly than at any earlier period, that most of the planets possess special characteristics which distinguish them from one another, and that such an origin as Laplace suggested the slow cooling and contraction of one vast sun-mist or nebula, besides presenting inherent difficulties many think them impossibilities in itself does not afford an adequate explanation of these peculiarities.
