  1. Lyman Spitzer
    Arthur Compton
    Edwin Hubble
    Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar
    NASA’s Great observatories are named after them.

  2. The people in the pics are Lyman Spitzer, Arthur Compton, Edwin Hubble and Subramaniyam Chandrashekar, after whom NASA has named its space telescopes.

  3. “All these scientists have been the inspiration for the naming of the NASA space telescopes under the Great Observatories program.” This what the Great Thomas Masun Observed

  4. physicists after whom the 4 great NASA observatories are named:
    a. Lyman Spitzer Jr.
    b. Arthur Holly Compton
    c. Edwin Hubble
    d. Prof Subramiam Chandrasekhar.

  5. NASAs telescopes and observatories

    Spitzer Space Telescope
    Hubble Space Telescope
    Compton Gamma Ray Observatory
    Chandra X-ray Observatory

  6. Connect – Great Observatories

    Clockwise from from 1st row left picture

    1. Lyman Strong Spitzer, Jr – Spitzer Space Telescope of Great Observatories is named after him.
    2. Arthur Compton – Compton Gamma Ray Observatory of Great Observatories is named after him.
    3. Edwin Hubble – Hubble Space Telescope is named after him
    4. Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar – Chandra X-ray Observatory is named after him.

  7. The four great observatories

    The Hubble Space Telescope mission
    The Compton Gamma Ray Observatory
    The Chandra X-ray Observatory
    The Spitzer Space Telescope

  8. NASA’s series of Great Observatories satellites

    The Hubble Space Telescope (HST),
    Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO), Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) &
    Spitzer Space Telescope (SST)

  9. NASA Great Observatories named after them.

    In order – Spitzer, Compton, Hubble and Chandrashekar.

  10. NASA’s series of Great Observatories satellites are four large, powerful space-based telescopes. They are named after the four astro-physicist’s shown in the question.

    Hubble Space Telescope, named after Edwin Hubble.
    Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, named after Arthur Holly Compton.
    Chandra X-ray Observatory, named after Subramanya Chandrashakar.
    Spitzer Space Telescope, named after Lyman Spitzer, Jr.

  11. Second pic is Arthur Hally Compton who was buried in a place called Wooster….. Third is PGW whose(of course) famous character is Wooster… first and fourth don’t know..

  12. Arthur compton after a lunar crater,lyman spitzer after a telescope&chandrasekhar after a space observatory/asteroid
