A Dutch-born engineer graced with an uncanny feel for optics, - TopicsExpress

A Dutch-born engineer graced with an uncanny feel for optics, Bottema belonged to the old school: in weeks his back-of-the-envelope scribbles showed how to arrange COSTARs 10 coin-size silver mirrors on a telescoping boom so they would snap into the path of Hubbles fuzzy light beams. (Bottema died last year; COSTAR carries a plaque honoring him.) Does anyone know where there is a picture of this plaque? I was excited to see COSTAR at the NASM last week, but I could not get close enough to see the plaque. Im interested in this because Murk Bottemas son, Frank Bottema, was my high school math teacher (19 years ago), and he once told us the story of the day his father figured out the calculations to fix Hubble.
