Scientific paper
Canadian meteor science, encompassing visual, photographic, spectrographic and radar studies of meteors, along with research on impact structures and the retrieval of meteorites, was widely respected during the second half of the twentieth century. There is no question that the leadership of Peter M. Millman made the research field possible. Yet a combination of changes to government institutions, budgetary constrictions, university department priorities and shifting research interests led to the field's near demise in Canada not long after Millman's death.
