Recent Top 10 People I Would Like to Meet and/or Have Dinner With Here is a list of the top 10 astronomy and space people I would like to meet and/or have dinner with. Unfortunately, it probably will not happen. Several names on my list are now dead and the odds are against my meeting the living members as well. African-Americans in Astronomy and Space - African-American (Black) History Month African-Americans have played a major role in the history of the United States of America and have much to be proud of. Here, we would like to celebrate just a few of the achievements of African-Americans in the fields of astronomy and space. The week was chosen to coincide with International Women's Day, March 8. Three years later, congress finally established a National Women's History Week, which finally became Women's History Month in 1987.

Radio Astronomy History in a Nutshell
Radio astronomy began with Karl Jansky's discovery, in 1932, of a strong source of radio static which originated from the central region of our galaxy, the Milky Way. Jansky was using a rotating antenna and a receiver operating at 20.7 Mhz. Jansky's work was largely ignored except by a young engineer in Wheaton, Illinois named Grote Reber. Karl Jansky and his rotating 20.7 Mhz antenna. Reber, using his own funds and enormous personal effort constructed a fully steerable parabolic dish antenna. He built and used numerous receivers operating at a number of wavelengths and slowly was able to construct a sky map based on the strength of the radio signals emanating from the regions of the sky covered by his antenna. Not much else happened in the field until after World War II, when many scientists found themselves free of military concerns and armed with a wealth of new technology which sprung from the conflict. Radar had pushed the ability to receive signals to shorter and shorter wavelengths where antennas of reasonable size could be built to examine smaller regions of the sky (narrow beam widths). Grote Reber's original dish today at the NRAO in West Virginia.
