Jean-Claude Pecker
Jean-Claude Pecker
(10 May 1923 – 20 February 2020) was a French astronomer,
astrophysicist
and author, member of the
French Academy of Sciences
and director of the
Nice Observatory
. He served as the secretary-general of the
International Astronomical Union
from 1964 to 1967. Pecker was the President of the
Société astronomique de France (SAF)
, the French amateur astronomical society, from 1973–1976. He was awarded the
Prix Jules Janssen
by the
French Astronomical Society
in 1967. A minor planet (
1629 Pecker
) is named after him. Pecker was a vocal opponent of
astrology
and
pseudo-science
and was the president of the
Association française pour l'information scientifique (AFIS)
, a
skeptical organisation
which promotes scientific enquiry in the face of
quackery
and
obscurantism
.
