Named in honor of Albert Esquibel, who has for 19 years been active in project management and electronic maintenance. For the last 13 years he has been with the GEODSS project at the four U.S. Air Force sites. He has worked closely with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory as they first tested the NEAT instrument with the GEODSS telescope system in Maui. Through his diligence on site, the NEAT/GEODSS program has enjoyed unparalleled success with its autonomous NEO discovery program. (M 29672) _ _.
