I satisfied my curiosity, and found out that Gale Crater is named
after an Australian banker, Walter Frederick Gale, who was also an avid amateur astronomer, and the discoverer of two comets. He did observe Mars, and mapped some canals there. Perhaps someday there will be a yellow brick canal built in his honor on Mars... John Savard |

I know you're probably just copying and pasting the title, but PLEASE don't use all caps for the subject. I filter posts to reject those that do this, as it gets rid of all that Ed Conrad crap. |
