		Among his numerous honors, Alcock was elected a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 2001, received the American Astronomical Society's Beatrice M. Tinsley Prize in 2000, and was honored with the U.S. Department of Energy's E.O. Lawrence Award for Physics in 1996.
		The Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics combines the resources, research facilities, and scientific staff of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) and the Harvard College Observatory (HCO) under a single director to pursue studies of the basic physical processes that determine the nature and evolution of the universe.
		The long relationship between the two organizations, which began when the SAO moved its headquarters to Cambridge in 1955, was formalized by the establishment of a joint center in 1973.

	MIT Physics Faculty: Jacqueline N. Hewitt
		In particular, with the Haystack Observatory interferometry group she is part of a U. (MIT and the Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics) and Australian (University of Melbourne, Australia National University, Curtin University of Technology, and Australia Telescope National Facility) collaboration developing the Mileura Widefield Array, a low-frequency antenna array under construction in Western Australia.
		Appointed Director of MIT's Kavli Center for Astrophysics and Space Research in January 2002, Professor Hewitt began her career at MIT in 1986 as a postdoctoral associate in the Very Long Baseline Interferometry group at the MIT Haystack Observatory.
		After a one-year sojourn as a research staff member in the Department of Astrophysical Sciences at Princeton University, she returned to MIT in 1989 as an Assistant Professor of physics.

	Center for Astrophysics with HST (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		We have proposed the foundation of a small `center without walls' to boost the Danish astronomical community's use of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) for astrophysical research.
		The center will have as the main objectives to carry out independent research on HST data, quite possibly in collaboration with members of the project group.
		Members of the project group have worked on HST data in several areas, however, there is a strong focus on extragalactic work and cosmological issues in which elliptical galaxies play a central role: Surface-brightness fluctuations, gravitational lensing, the fundamental plane, and far-infrared emissions.
