He also observed the aftermath of the Deep Impact probe's collision with comet Tempel 1. Currently, he is the deputy PI of the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer mission. His analysis of the images of comet Hartley 2 taken by the WISE spacecraft revealed that the object was shedding mass. The asteroid 16232 Chijagerbs is named after him and his wife, Chija Bauer. They have one daughter and one son. == References == *http://scitechdaily.com/astronomers-reveal-the-true-identity-of-mysterious-centaurs/ *http://www.space.com/18364-comet-breakup-inner-solar-system.html *http://scaapt.org/meetings/2013mtg1spr/report.pdf 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Bauer (astronomer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
