Totally inspirational figure in my life. I read many of his books as a kid and watched the Sky At Night every month. He wasn't a figure without controversy, his views on women in science were firmly rooted in the 1920s but overall he was a giant figure in Astronomy. Few people will ever contribute so much for so little personal gain.
