Russell Alan Hulse is an American astrophysicist. He shared the 1993 Nobel Prize in Physics with Joseph Hooton Taylor "for the discovery of a new type of pulsar, a discovery that has opened up new possibilities for the study of gravitation". This was the first indirect detection of gravitational waves, later directly detected by Kip Thorne, Barry Barish and Rainer Weiss.

We are willing to worship a God only if God makes us safe. Thus you get the silly question, How does a good God let bad things happen to good people? Of course, it was a rabbi who raised that question, but Christians took it up as their own. Have you read the Psalms lately? We're seeing a much more complex God than that question gives credit for.
Awarded Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (2003).
