Goddard Scientist Receives Prestigious Award
Dr. Charles L. Bennett, senior scientist at Goddard is the latest recipient of the prestigious John C. Lindsay Memorial Award for Space Science. The award is bestowed upon space scientists who have made significant contributions in their field. "I am both delighted and humbled by being chosen to receive the John C. Lindsay Memorial Award. It is wonderful to be honored," said Bennett. "Even more importantly, this award recognizes the efforts of the many wonderful people I am privileged to work with." In 2002, Bennett was assigned the position of Senior Scientist for Experimental Cosmology at Goddard. He is also the Principal Investigator for the wildly successful Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). WMAP recently specified the age, content, history and other key properties of the universe with unprecedented accuracy and precision. In this position, he led the proposal efforts and mission design and development. In addition, he is responsible for ongoing mission operations, data analysis, and scientific results.
