Additional Information
Nomenclature
- Named for Joseph Albert Walker (1921-1966), an American test pilot.
- Perhaps it's interesting to know that there was also Arthur B. C. Walker, Jr. (1936-2001, American solar physicist).
- 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!).
