Jan Hendrik Oort

Jan Hendrik Oort [1] ( /ˈɔːrt/ ili /ˈʊərt/ ;[2] 28. april 1900. - 5. novembar 1992.) jeste bio holandski astronom koji je napravio značajan doprinos razumijevanju Mliječnog puta, i koji je bio pionir u oblasti radio astronomije .[3] U njegovoj osmrtnici koju je je objavio New York Times, nazivaju ga je "jednim od najistaknutijih istraživača univerzuma";[4] Internet stranica Evropske svemirske agencije opisuje ga kao "jednog od najvećih astronoma 20. vijeka" i kaže da je "revolucionizirao astronomiju kroz svoja revolucionarna otkrića".[5] Godine 1955, Oortovo ime se pojavilo u Life magazinovoj listi 100 najpoznatijih živih ljudi.[6] Opisan je kao osoba koja "stavlja Holandiju u prvi plan poslijeratne astronomije".[4]
