Erstausgabe
In: Proceedings of the National Academy of Science of the United States of America, Vol. 23, No. 3, March 1937. Washington, D.C.:: National Academy of Sciences, 1937., 1937. 8vo. 177-181 pp. [Entire issue: (133)-187 pp.] Original printed wrappers. Very good. FIRST EDITION of Whipple and Greenstein's theory of interstellar radio disturbances. Fred Whipple worked for many years at the Harvard College Observatory and became the director of the Smithsonian Institution Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge in 1955. Whipple introduced the "dirty-snowbank-comet model of the structure of comets which became axiomatic in the field of cometary research. Jesse Greenstein pioneered in opening a variety of new subjects in astrophysics, and was a leader in the development of radio astronomy in the United States, as well as the discovery and interpretation of the quasi-stellar radio sources. Greenstein graduated with a Ph.D. from Harvard in 1937, and turned his attention to radio astronomy. His most important contribution in the field came in 1964, with the discovery of the quasi-stellar radio sources, the most luminous - and enigmatic - objects in our universe.
