	People Spotlight: Timothy Brown, Spying the secrets of planets beyond our solar system
		Tim Brown has been interested in stars ever since he was a child reading about the launch of Sputnik and other satellites in the 1950s.
		Tim realized the spectrograph, which "sees" motion as changes in the wave shapes of light-absorbing particles, could also be used for an exciting new scientific field: planet hunting.
		Tim and his colleagues used spectroscopy to confirm the existence of a planet that another team of scientists had found in 1995, and they went on to discover a few planets of their own.

	Player Bio: Tim Brown :: Football

		Brown was a first-round pick of the Los Angeles Raiders (sixth player chosen overall) in the '88 NFL draft.

	Tim Brown shares frustrations and inspirations along the trail to newfound planets
		Tim's subject was the pursuit of planets of other stars and "how I didn't really get here intentionally." Tim wondered about the seemingly unplanned nature of his journey, interweaving explanations of the methods behind his work with reflections on influences, mentors, setbacks, and serendipity.
		Tim's planet-finding work began in 1992, when he, with colleagues at NCAR and the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO), mounted a spectrograph they'd designed and built on a 60-inch (1.5- meter) telescope at the Whipple Observatory, operated by SAO on Mt. Hopkins in Arizona.
		Tim's team, which had also been investigating the star, was one of the first to confirm the ground- breaking observations.
