Ľubor Kresák Life story
Ľubor Kresák was a Slovak astronomer. He discovered two comets: the periodic comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak and the non-periodic C/1954 M2. He also suggested in 1978 that the Tunguska event was a fragment of the periodic comet Encke. The asteroid 1849 Kresák was named in his honor.
