Paul Saffo says:
"Here is the tale of how an Air Force radar operator (Charles Schisler) detected the existence of Pulsars in 1964, years before their discovery by scientists in 1967. I especially like Mr. Schisler's recounting of how, when he brought it to his superiors' attention, they told him "it was not in their mission…" If they had even a modicum of curiosity, Mr. Schisler might have gotten a trip to Stockholm much as Arno Penzias once did when he heard a strange hiss on his receiver…
If management couldn't be bothered to listen to Mr. Schisler, then what other wonders have been overlooked in the vast flows of sensor data collected over the last few decades.
