Graham Bell
Northeast Kansas Amateur Astronomers’
League
(comet co-discoverer)
Graham Bell was educated at the University of Wyoming, where he majored in
physics. He has also received graduate credits in mathematics and
operations research from Florida State University and Colorado State
University. He has been a life-long amateur astronomer, if reading with
only occasional viewing qualifies one as an amateur astronomer. In 1997
he became a frequent observer when he received an 8 inch SCT as a
birthday present. He has, since that time, become involved heavily in
minor planet research, where his efforts have been devoted to improving
orbital elements for Near-Earth asteroids and the discovery of a number
of main belt asteroids. In 2000, he received the Edgar Wilson award for
him shared discovery of comet P/1999X1 (Hug-Bell). Graham has given
numerous talks on minor planets, and has been an organizer and regular
participant in the annual international Minor Planet Amateur/Profesional
Workshop.
