Recently while watching PBS's Nova program I was stunned to see Don Lamb
being interviewed on an episode dealing with, I believe, something called
neutron
stars. I had met Don before the Streator meet and knew that he was an
astronomer at the University of Chicago but it was still a shock to see him on
television. The program primarily dealt with trying to figure out what these
stars
were and the building and launching of a satellite to do specific research on
them.
