Oh yes - my bad. I shall edit. I think its cos I was just about to post the 4th clue when she replied lol.

 

She has an asteroid named after her?

 

Apparently!

Very cool!

I think this person is Ole Rømer because he was the first to provide a proof that light has a finite and hence quantifiable speed.

I think this person is Einstein because of special relativity and I have no other guess

Oh wow - Kay gets mine on the first clue.

I think this is Charles Messier cause he was a French Astronomer whom the picture is named after.

I'm sorry WF, that's not correct. I will put up another clue soon.

I'm guessing it's Edwin Hubble, as he was the first person to describe a spiral galaxy.

Another great guess, but still incorrect. This next clue is really going to confuse you Athena lol

 

You guys have some great guesses!

 

Im at work but checking in! Hope you are all having fun with this game.

I think it is Robert H. Goddard cause he invented the first liquid fuel rocket and talked about space travel.

Still not correct I'm afraid. Here is another clue ...

 

My guess is Lyman Spitzer Jr. cause he wrote a paper on a space observatory.

Sorry WF, another great guess though. Here is my last clue.

 

My guess is Sir Patrick Alfred Caldwell-Moore cause he is a british amatuer astronomer who helped raise awareness of astronomy to general public in UK.

Correct WF!

 

1 point for you

 

New round starting soon.

Wow, these are challenging! =D

Ok - I will post my last round.

 

My guess is Robert Frost cause he was a poet. Just guessing here.

My guess is Poe, because I always picture him with a feather quill. Annnnnd, his stories are fantastic.

Key: I was thinking of that also but picked frost cause I really like his poem, "stopped by the woods on a snowy eve." Plus I had to do a paper on him in junior high.

Good guesses again, but I'm afraid not correct. Here is my second clue.
