(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Francis Eugene Nipher was a United States physicist. Biography Francis Eugene Nipher was born in Port Byron, New York on December 10, 1847. He graduated in 1870 from Iowa State University, where he became assistant in physical science. In 1874, he was appointed professor of physics at Washington University in St. Louis. He organized the second state weather service, that of Missouri, in 1877, and for ten years it was maintained without official support. From 1878 until 1883, he conducted a magnetic survey of Missouri, doing the work under private auspices, and publishing the annual reports in the Transactions of the St. Louis Academy of Sciences. Nipher was a member of scientific societies, and in 1885 became president of the St. Louis Academy of Sciences.
