Emigration[edit]

Is it correct that Baade emigrated? I understand that he lived and worked over two decades in the states, but went back to Germany in 1951 and died there in 1960. He never assumed american citizenship as far as I understood.--CWitte (talk) 15:47, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Controversy[edit]

From Fritz Zwicky wiki: "German colleague Walter Baade claims to have been accused by Zwicky of being a Nazi, and falsely staged complaints that he "feared" Zwicky. Unknown to the public was that Baade was fearful, because he had named a galaxy after himself that was discovered by Zwicky. Edwin Hubble corrected this injustice and the galaxy was catalogued as a Zwicky galaxy."

Shouldn't this be mentioned? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:58C:C580:8230:E8EE:B629:1AA1:793D (talk) 02:39, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bad link[edit]

Reference [5] is expired and now points to a business. Found the reference in an archive but W does not let me link to it. How does one fix that? http://archive.is/20130126093835/http://www.institute-of-brilliant-failures.com/section2.htm Acmejia (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:33, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
