I think you might find that the reason why this isn't
promoted anymore than Dick's bio (freely available),
and I might add the suggestions for the Pioneer and,
ergo, the Viking ID plates, is that this is a _footnote_.

Carl Sagan did a piece of speculation on life on Jupiter,
but was convieniently forgotten in the conspiracy theories
that followed the Galileo drop.  Then there's Lowells
canals, Jan Oort (anyone remember him?), Oppenheimer's
black holes (That a young indian came up with 20 years
earlier), Lise Meitner, etc, etc, etc.  Very few of them
have their name in lights.

Now, if Europa does yield life, expect a different
treatment, and an unbearable Dick Hoagland.
