Nomenclature

Carl Otto Lampland (December 29, 1873 – December 14, 1951) was an American astronomer. He went to Lowell Observatory in 1902. He designed cameras used for astronomy and also designed and maintained telescopes, including resilvering the mirror of the 40-inch telescope. He also constructed thermocouples and used them to measure temperatures of planets. Together with William Coblentz, he measured large differences between the day and night temperatures on Mars.
