| Introduction | Dutch, 54, Lecturer in optical Space Situational Awareness at Delft Technical University, the Netherlands. Former stone age archaeologist (PhD). Also a meteoriticist and asteroid discoverer. As an invited expert I advised members of Dutch Parliament about military satellite systems and their locations during a 2016 foreign affairs committee hearing about the MH17 disaster. Asteroid (183294) Langbroek was named after me. In 2012, I received the Dr. J. van der Bilt Prize of the Royal Dutch Astronomy Association (KNVWS) for my work on meteors, asteroids and satellites.
