Go Maroons!
UChicago, my alma mater, is doing alright for itself in the spacecraft naming business.
First there was Edwin Hubble (S.B. 1910, Ph.D. 1917).
Then came Arthur Compton (the “MetLab”).
Followed by Subramanya Chandrasekhar (Morton D. Hull Distinguished Service Professor of Theoretical Astrophysics).
And now, Enrico Fermi.
