New Cometary Insights from the Close Approach of 46P/Wirtanen: A Symposium in Celebration of Mike A'Hearn



Memories of Mike

We are collecting pictures of Mike that we'd like to display and distribute at the Symposium. If you have some that you'd like to share, we request that you upload digital versions to our memories Google Drive [link: https://ter.ps/AHearn] (and if possible, include a text file that identifies people in the picture).

If you have only hardcopy photographs, please bring them. We will have a scanner available and will make digital copies on-site.

Some helpful hints:

  • Image (or video) files should have unique names! Perhaps include the date of the image, event name or identifier, and end with _LAST (your last name) so we know who shared the image.
  • For individual images, please use the file description box (right side option in Google Drive) to add details (who, what, where, when).
  • If uploading multiple images, you may consolidate details and captions into a list in one document.
  • Have a hardcopy image but no way to scan? We will have a limited capability of scanning images on site at the symposium. (Let know ahead of time if you are interested in this!)

Thanks to Dr McFadden and others for compiling and sharing this: AAS Obituary.
