	Hoyle, Fred (1915-2001)
		Hoyle successfully predicted the existence of a resonance in carbon-12 that was essential to helium burning in stars.
		Hoyle provided a mathematical theory of the model consistent with the general theory of relativity and served as the leading spokesman for the new theory, coining the term “Big Bang” for the competing model during a radio lecture.
		Hoyle was an early supporter of the modern view that extrasolar planets and life are ubiquitous.

	Cardiff Centre for Astrobiology; Fred Hoyle; researching panspermia and the origins of life
		Fred Hoyle had no respect for the boundaries between scientific disciplines which were artificial social constructs that often stood in the way of a proper comprehension of the cosmos.
		It was Fred Hoyle's original prediction of the presence of an excited state of the nucleus of the atom Carbon via his studies of the structure and evolution of stars that heralded a long and profitable collaboration with Caltech nuclear physicist Willy Fowler.
		Hoyle together myself and Jayant Narlikar did not accept this data to be a defeat for the Steady State, and have indicated many reasonable ways in which the background radiation can be produced without a Big Bang.

	Fred Hoyle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hoyle, unlike Gold and Bondi, offered an explanation for the appearance of new matter by postulating the existence of what he dubbed the "creation field", or just the "C-field", which had negative pressure in order to be consistent with the conservation of energy and drive the expansion of the universe.
		Hoyle played an important role in determining the nature of the pulsing radio signals (from the pulsar), but was also excluded from the prize.

	Fred Hoyle and Haldane's Dilemma (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Hoyle's mistake was not in the math, nor was it in the population genetics (both of which he knew thoroughly).
		Hoyle defined genetic death in a given generation as the actual reduction of the old-type individuals, in other words, the difference in the actual number of old-type individuals between the beginning and end of the generation.
		Hoyle correctly mentions, "the fraction of juveniles that must die to maintain the integrity of the species." (Hoyle, p 112) These losses are non-random, and are related to the "Cost of Mutation".

	Fred Hoyle Biography \| Encyclopedia of World Biography
		In 1976, Hoyle and Chandra Wickramasinghe, a fellow professor at the University of Cardiff with whom Hoyle often collaborated, speculated that microorganisms or biochemical compounds from outer space are responsible for originating life on Earth and possibly other parts of the universe.
		Hoyle urged that a major international effort was needed to carry out "a rigorous and continuous microbiological surveillance of rainwater and of groundwater on a worldwide scale.
		Hoyle and Wickramasinghe were among the first to argue against the theory that life on Earth originated in a so-called "prebiotic soup." The theory is based on a famous experiment by Stanley Miller in 1953.

	Physics Today November 2001
		From 1945, Hoyle was based in Cambridge, first as lecturer in mathematics, and subsequently, from 1958, as the Plumian Professor of Astronomy.
		Hoyle was supportive to us all, even when our researches were orthogonal (or even contradictory) to his own.
		Hoyle's enduring insights into stars, nucleosynthesis, and the large-scale universe rank among the greatest achievements of 20th-century astrophysics.

	Hoyle biography
		Hoyle's performance was good in physics and chemistry but, as he expected, his preparation for mathematics had been weak and the mathematics paper dragged him down.
		Although Hoyle had completed the work for a Ph.D. by then he was persuaded by Pryce not to submit (the Ph.D. was new to Cambridge and Pryce did not approve of it).
		Hoyle continued to publish up to the end of his life with Mathematics of evolution appearing in 1999 and A Different Approach to Cosmology: From a Static Universe through the Big Bang towards Reality (written jointly with G Burbidge and Narlikar) being published in 2000.

	Fred Hoyle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Hoyle’s biggest contribution to orthodox cosmology was nucleosynthesis — the process by which elements heavier than hydrogen are created within both stars and exploding stars, or supernovas.
		Hoyle’s biggest mistake, so far as orthodox science is concerned, was his conception of the Steady State Universe, first proposed in 1948.
		Hoyle never ceased to tinker with his theory, eventually accounting for background radiation within its parameters, but it was too late; barely anyone takes it seriously today.

	The Bruce Medalists: Fred Hoyle
		Fred Hoyle was born in Yorkshire in northern England and educated in mathematics and theoretical physics at the University of Cambridge, where he worked under Rudolph Peierls and Paul A.M. Dirac.
		Hoyle provided a mathematical theory of the model which was an extension of the general theory of relativity and featured continuous creation of matter.
		Hoyle was also the proponent of the equally unpopular idea that life came to earth from elsewhere.

	The Intelligent Universe. (Fred Hoyle).
		Hoyle concludes that it is easy to find a formula that fits the data, but difficult to invent one that predicts future events.
		Hoyle replies that a layer of Carbon of 0.0001 cm thick is sufficient to shield organisms against ultraviolet light.
		As the inventor of the Steady State theory Hoyle is a critic and part of the minority in astronomy.

	SPACE.com -- British 'Steady-State' Astronomer Fred Hoyle Dies
		Hoyle, a Cambridge University academic and science fiction writer, objected to many conventional cosmological theories and became known for his efforts to popularize science.
		Instead of the ``Big Bang,'' Hoyle advocated the ``steady state'' theory that the cosmos had no beginning but that new galaxies were formed as others moved apart, and in collaboration with Chandra Wickramasinghe he has pioneered the modern theory of panspermia.
		In 1968 Hoyle was awarded the UN Kalinga Prize, he also received the Royal Medal of the Royal Society and the Gold Medal of the Royal Astronomical Society.

	Big bang critic dies (Fred Hoyle)
		Hoyle favored and popularized a view called panspermia, the notion that life originated somewhere else in the universe and was driven to earth by electromagnetic radiation pressure.
		Hoyle explained this in his typically lucid manner, and as with the ‘big bang,’ his turns of phrase have found their way into popular culture.
		Hoyle also compared the chance of obtaining even a single functioning protein by chance combination of amino acids to a solar system full of blind men solving the Rubik’s Cube simultaneously—see Rubik’s Cube and Blind Men.

	Amazon.com: 'Mathematics of Evolution': Books: Fred Hoyle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Armed with a clear mathematical analysis, Hoyle enters the contentious issue of sexual reproduction, to argue, with compelling strength, that asexual populations have difficulty evolving because they are overwhelmed by harmful mutation.
		Hoyle, one of the most brilliant people to go through Cambridge, may have the delightful range of English character that reaches toward eccentricity in its freedom of thought, but he has never failed to be interesting and deep.
		Hoyle's bold statements in the "laypersons" summaries are certainly not supported by either his analysis or the last 100 years of work in genetics, mathematical biology, and evolution.

	Mathematics of Evolution. (Fred Hoyle).
		Hoyle did not claim that all genes of the higher organisms, were present in the very first life forms.
		Hoyle's problem that extraterrestrial genes would at first not 'feel at home' on the Earth, is really an insignificant and small problem compared with the genetic code matching problem.
		Hoyle's claims about the evolutionary benefits of sex are also confirmed by remarks of Crow: "But such a process can only work in sexual species, where mutations are shuffled each generation by genetic recombination".
