Arthur Edward Lilley, professor of astronomy, has made a career of seeing what the rest of the world can't. As an expert in radio astronomy, he has measured cosmic radio waves emitted by atoms and molecules in planetary atmospheres and in the interstellar medium, frequently invisible to the most powerful optical telescopes.
Lilley's work with the cutting-edge radio telescopes of the '50s and '60s shed significant light on the evolution of galaxies and the birth of stars -- discoveries that cleared the path for more recent astronomical advances.
