Caroline Moore
Caroline Moore (born 1994) is an American amateur astronomer. On November 7, 2008, at the age of 14, Moore discovered supernova 2008ha in the galaxy UGC 12682 in the constellation Pegasus. At that time, Moore was the youngest person to discover a supernova. This record was broken on December 31, 2010, by the 10 years old amateur astronomer Kathryn Aurora Gray who discovered supernova SN 2010lt.
==Early discoveries==
Moore started her astronomical observations at the age of ten, when her father Robert, an avid astronomer and the co-chair of the NorthEast Astro-Imaging Conference, bought her a telescope. Since then, they built a home observatory in the backyard of their home at Warwick, 60 miles northwest of New York City. The observatory has a retractable roof and three "advanced amateur" level telescopes, such as a 10-inch Newtonian reflector. However, her serious observations were made not with her home telescopes, but at the computer screen. The motivation came at a dinner with family friends in early 2008 where she learned that an 18-year-old astronomer had found a supernova. She then said "I could beat her".〔〔
