"In 1993 he (Charles Robert O'Dell) used the Hubble Space Telescope to discover in the Orion Nebula a new class of objects, the proplyds, providing clear-cut proof that ordinary star formation includes disks from which planets can form. Since then, his research has concentrated on how these objects are created and interact with their natal material. An avid aviator, he participated as a pilot on the USA team in the FAI World Glider Aerobatic Championships in 1985, 1987, 1989, and 1993.
