Kenneth Linn Franklin (March 25, 1923 – June 18, 2007) was an American astronomer and educator. Franklin was the chief scientist at the Hayden Planetarium from 1956 to 1984 and was co-credited with discovering radio waves originating on Jupiter, the first detection of signals from another planet.〔(Kenneth L. Franklin, Ph.D. ) at the Carnegie Institution of Washington Department of Terrestrial Magnetism web site.〕〔(Kenneth Franklin, Astronomer, Dies at 84 ) — Obituary from ''The New York Times'' by Douglas Martin, June 21, 2007.〕 He was often a local and national media figure including during Apollo 11, the first manned mission to the moon, when Franklin was an on-camera astronomy expert for NBC.〔 ==Early life and discovery== Franklin was born in Alameda, California to Myles Arthur and Ruth Linn (Houston) Franklin. He received an A.A. degree from the University of California, Berkeley in 1944 and bachelor's degree in 1948.〔〔(Kenneth L. Franklin ) — Obituary from the Times Online, June 28, 2007.〕 He married Beverly Mattson on November 29, 1949. He earned a Ph.D. from Berkeley in 1953 and a research fellowship at the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism at the Carnegie Institution of Washington from 1954 to 1956.〔 In 1955, Franklin and Dr. Bernard F. Burke were scanning for space signals when they heard a hissing noise. Originally thinking the noise was a passing vehicle's spark plug, they soon traced it to Jupiter, the first noise ever traced to a specific planet. They presented their findings to the American Astronomical Society on April 6, 1955.〔 In March 1956, Franklin's wife, with whom he had two daughters, died.〔 Franklin began working at the Hayden Planetarium the same year. On May 18, 1958, he married Charlotte Walton and later legally adopted a daughter from her previous marriage.〔〔The specifics of Dr. Franklin legally adopting his second wife's daughter is from a personal note left by another daughter, Christine Franklin Redding, (on the talk page here ).〕
