- And also... Arthur Geoffrey Walker (1909-2001, English cosmologist).
- And... Sears Cook Walker (1805-1853, American astronomer).
- And... Edward Craven Walker (1918-2000, inventor of the Lava Lamp) (was, or still is, a handy tool for those who want to illustrate a possible mechanism during the creation of the solar system's semi-fluid bodies!).
