A discussion is given of recent observations relevant to the decaying neutrino theory. The HST spectrum of the halo star HD 93521 obtained and analysed by Spitzer and Fitzpatrick supports our predictions that warm opaque clouds in the Galaxy should possess substantial partial ionisation, and that the electron density in such clouds near the sun should be constant.
