Steve Preston - 2009 Award Recipient

 

The 2009 Homer F. DaBoll award recipient is Steve Preston from Seattle, Washington for his dedicated contributions in the prediction of asteroidal occultations worldwide. Preston’s webpage, www.asteroidoccultation.com is the standard source for prediction of asteroid occultations used by nearly all occultation observers worldwide. David Dunham called Steve on his cell phone at the time of the announcement and Steve offered a hearty "Thank You" for the award.
