Szomorú hír, de köszönöm az értesítést.

Nem lenne kedved írni Ceplecháról a Meteorba

>> Dear colleagues and friends,
>>
>> it is sad to inform you that well-known Czech meteor astronomer
>> Zdenek Ceplecha passed away on December 4, 2009, at the age
>> of 80 years and 10 months.
>>
>> Zdenek was famous for the observation and analysis of the Pribram
>> meteorite fall in 1959 - the first photographed meteorite fall
>> and the first meteorite with known orbit. He, nevertheless,
>> contributed to many fields of meteor astronomy, e.g. classification
>> of fireballs and meteors, atmospheric fragmentation of meteoroids,
>> fireball spectroscopy, dark flight of meteorites, influx
>> of meteoritic material on Earth, and others. The European fireball
>> network, which he founded in 1963, is still working today
>> and the methods he invented are in use. His review article
>> Meteor Phenomena and Bodies, which he published with several
>> co-authors in 1998, is among the most cited papers in the field.
>>
>> Many of you have seen Zdenek at the conference Bolides and Meteorite
>> Falls this May. He enjoyed the conference and was happy to
>> see many friends. Unfortunately, his health started to deteriorate
>> in September .....
>>
>>
>> Jiri Borovicka
>> also on behalf of Pavel Spurny (currently on field trip in Australia)
