When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Question, while there is a link to one of his primary developments; the interferometer, there is no mention of this topic in the biography section of the page. So, when did he make this development and why? Should probably be added to his biography, since its a pretty big part of his timeline.

Also some of the references need to be looked at for broken links, as a few are broken. The aerec (talk) 21:42, 21 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
