Charles Husband
[edit]
Lovell radio telescope
- ... that Charles Husband was the engineer behind what was, on completion, the world's largest fully-steerable radio telescope (pictured)? Source: "The Sir Bernard Lovell Telescope (formerly known as Mark I) was the largest fully steerable radio telescope in the world of its time." [1] & "With Charles Husband, a consulting engineer based in Sheffield, Bernard Lovell planned a 250ft (76m) telescope that could be pointed to any part of the sky - a fully steerable telescope." [2]
5x expanded by Espresso Addict (talk). Self-nominated at 18:11, 19 October 2016 (UTC).
New enough (5x now, expansion began 34 edits ago on 15 October 2016), long enough (7,187 characters "readable prose size"), fully referenced. Hook fine, verified against online sources. QPQ done. Image on Commons with appropriate licence, looks good. Good to go. Hawkeye7 (talk) 20:55, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
