As two books trumpet Fred Hoyle's legacy, Tim Radford assesses a
visionary scientist who went too far
Thursday June 16, 2005
The Guardian
Fred Hoyle was the man who worked out just how stars in a galaxy far
away and long ago forged the carbon, oxygen, iron, silicon and other
elements that became the molecules that became the organisms that
ultimately turned into astronomers and accountants, authors and
automatons.
Fred Hoyle was also a wartime backroom radar scientist, a successful
science fiction novelist, a colossal academic fighter and - in later
life - a grade one batty boffin who argued that diseases were forged in
space and delivered to Earth by comets and that the archaeopteryx
specimen in London's Natural History Museum was a fake.
