Why Is Erich Karkoschka Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Erich Karkoschka is a planetary researcher at the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory of the University of Arizona. He discovered a satellite of Uranus, S/1986 U 10 on photographs taken by the Voyager 2 spacecraft. He has assembled a number of movies including: the Huygens landing on the moon Titan, the seasonal patterns on Uranus, and a rare triple eclipse on Jupiter. The Jupiter and Uranus images were released as US postage stamps in 2016.
