- Named for John August Anderson (August 7, 1876 - December 2, 1959), an American astronomer. In 1916 he went to work at the Mt. Wilson observatory. His most notable contribution was his adaptation of the Michelson's interferometer technique for measuring close double stars. He used a rotating mask at the focus to measure the separation of Capella.
- Not to be confused with Andersson or M. Anderson!
- Anderson was printed as Andersen on the farside map of Hallwag.- DannyCaes DannyCaes Dec 2, 2011
- Anderson Finger (Anderson L).

Note:
Page 275 (also in Burnham's Celestial handbook) has a certain T. D. Anderson from Edinburgh, Scotland (an amateur astronomer who discovered Nova Aurigae 1891, also known as T Aurigae, and Nova Persei 1901). - DannyCaes DannyCaes May 3, 2015
