With Wallace Sargent he developed a model to calculate the hydrogen-to-helium composition of galaxies.〔 As director of the Carnegie Observatories, he was also central to the construction of the Las Campanas Observatory in Chile, considered the best natural imaging telescopes in the world.〔 Searle married Eleanor Millard, whom he met at Princeton, in 1952.
