Ľubor Kresák

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ľubor Kresák (1927 – 1994) was a Slovak astronomer.

He discovered two comets: the periodic comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak and the non-periodic C/1954 M2 (Kresak-Peltier). He also suggested in 1978 that the Tunguska event was a fragment of the periodic comet Encke.
