  Karl Ludwig Harding - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
Karl Ludwig Harding (September 29 1765 – August 31 1834) was a German astronomer, notable for having discovered the asteroid 3 Juno.
He was hired in 1796 by Johann Hieronymus Schröter as a tutor for the latter's son, and discovered Juno at Schröter's observatory.
A crater on the Moon is named after him, and so is the asteroid 2003 Harding.

  Harding (crater) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Harding is a small lunar impact crater that lies in the Sinus Roris, a bay in the northwest part of the Oceanus Procellarum.
To the northeast of Harding is the smaller Dechen crater.
The rim of Harding crater has a sharp edge, and is not quite circular, with slight outward bulges to the north and west, and a somewhat angular corner in the southeast.

 AAVSO: R Aquarii, Summer 2003 Variable Star Of The Season
Harding, an assistant at the Johann Schoter's Observatory in Lilienthal, Germany, was originally looking for a "missing" planet between Mars and Jupiter as part of the "Celestial Police" project at the observatory.
In addition to the minor planet finding, Harding's observations lead to the discovery of four variable stars, all of Mira-related type: R Virginis in 1809, R Aquarii in 1810, R Serpentis in 1826, and S Serpentis in 1828.
All of Harding's variables are in the AAVSO observing program and all are favorites amongst many observers, but what makes R Aqr so interesting is the assorted components that make up R Aqr system and the light curve that follows.

At the 2nd of September 1804, Karl Ludwig Harding (1765-1834) discovered a moving star at the private observatory of Johann Hieronymus Schröter (1745-1816) at Lilienthal near Bremen.
Harding sent his data to Heinrich Wilhelm Matthias Olbers (1758-1840), who found the second ever discovered planetoid in March 1802 and who practiced as a physicist in Bremen.
Olbers handed these data to the mathematician Karl Friedrich Gauß (1777-1855), who was his mail-pal and who made it possible to re-discover the very first planetoid (1) Ceres through the recorded data and by a method for the calculation of ellyptical planetary orbits.

Juno (sister and wife of the Roman god Jupiter) was found in 1804 by Karl Ludwig Harding (1765-1834), and Olbers spotted his second asteroid, Vesta (Roman goddess of the hearth), in 1807.
The asteroids' small size made them challenging objects to find, and the next one, Astraea (Greek goddess of justice), was not discovered until 1845, by Karl Ludwig Hencke (1793-1866).
