Note

There is no indication either here or at the JPL data base of who this one is named for. Could it be for Wallace J. Eckert, a deceased Columbia University professor of astronomy well known for contributions in the 1950s to the computer field? (source: I was slightly acquainted with him, although never had him as a professor)Tham153 (talk) 18:37, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
