  While amateur Víctor Buso is given credit for the discovery, it seems rather interesting how these UC astronomers now are trumpeting their follow up to his disovery, there is not even an image of Mr. Buso provided.

  The writer maybe didn't notice, but in the Nature article Victor Buso's affiliation is listed as Observatorio Astronómico Busoniano, Entre Ríos 2974 (2000), this is, the attic of his own house: https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/624/cpsprodpb/7BA5/production/_100135613_casa_cerrajero.gif https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/624/cpsprodpb/7BA5/production/...
