Vote for the most influential astronomer of all time!

[Pete Presland]

went for Kepler like what has been said before what a tough life,

Kepler's mother, Katharina was accused of witchcraft she was imprisoned for fourteen months among other things.

on a personal level it has to be Sir Patrick Moore,an ever present on TV ect.. for my whole life amazing BBC TV 26 April 1957, at 10:30 pm, and still going strong

I wonder if Sir Patrick has any idea of how much love for him there is on this forum? Someone should get Starman to print it all off and show it to him.

I can't imagine there's a single British Amateur who doesn't hold him in extremely high regard.

Well it looks like Galileo wins head and shoulders above the rest! Well done, Galileo, and thanks for voting people. Now, time for my next poll.....
