Wilhelm Julius Foerster

Wilhelm Julius Foerster (December 16, 1832 – January 18, 1921) was a German astronomer. His name can also be written Förster, but is usually written "Foerster" even in most German sources where 'ö' is otherwise used in the text.
==Biography==
A native of Grünberg, Silesia, he studied at University of Berlin and Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, and worked as Johann Franz Encke's assistant. In 1860, he co-discovered asteroid 62 Erato with Oskar Lesser, the first co-discovery on record. He became professor of astronomy at the University of Berlin in 1863.〔 After Encke's death in 1865, he became director of the Berlin Observatory, until 1903.
In 1868 he was appointed director of the commission established by the North German Confederation, and continued from 1871 by the German Empire, for the determination of standards of measurement. In this capacity, he superintended the reorganization of the German system of weights and measures on the metric basis. He was elected president of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in 1891.〔
In 1892, he assisted in the founding of the German Society for Ethical Culture (GSEC; (ドイツ語:Deutsche Gesellschaft für ethische Kultur)),〔 in which Albert Einstein also participated). He was also a member of the German Peace Society ((ドイツ語:Deutsche Friedensgesellschaft)), and resisted the rise in nationalism brought about by the outbreak of World War I. When 93 German intellectuals signed the ''Aufruf an die Kulturwelt'' manifesto in support of the war, Foerster was one of only four intellectuals to sign the ''Aufruf an die Europäer'' counter-manifesto (the others were Albert Einstein, the philosopher Otto Buek, and its author, the physiologist Georg Friedrich Nicolai).
