"Discoveries" by Fred Lawrence Whipple is a memoir that details the author's life and his significant contributions to the field of astronomy, particularly his work in the study of comets and the solar system. Whipple, a prominent astronomer and the director of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, is perhaps best known for proposing the "dirty snowball" model of comets, suggesting that they are composed of ice and dust.
