Great Astronomers - Undervalued...another Tesla?

When you use this link...

....you will come across one of the people who inspired
Edwin Hubble and his red-shift work. Very much like
Nikola Tesla, Vesto Slipher comes to us without the
many trappings of greatness. To many, this probably
seems a very great injustice. I happen to think that men
like Slipher and Tesla are extremely fortunate.

Greatness may be, and probably is, highly overrated!
Or maybe it's just the public recognition of greatness?
In any case, i personally feel that both Tesla and Slipher
are two of the greatest people who ever lived.

And here is the very interesting back-up to the domain
