(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Charles Pollard Olivier was an American astronomer, notable for his contributions to the study of meteors, double stars and variable stars. Biography Charles grew up in Charlottesville, Virginia, and he lived close to the University of Virginia. In 1901 he became an assistant at the nearby Leander McCormick Observatory, and in 1905 he was Vanderbilt fellow at the observatory. He completed his Ph.D. in astronomy by 1911, with a dissertation disproving the existence of stationary meteor radiants.
