Luboš born 29 January 1935) is a Czech astronomer and a discoverer of minor Kohoutek which

was visible to the naked eye in 1973.

 Kohoutek was born in 1935 to Hynek and Jarmila

Kohoutek. His brother is the Czech composer Ctirad Kohoutek. Kohoutek has been interested in astronomy

since high school. He studied physics and astronomy at universities in Brno and Prague (finished 1958). Then he started to work in the

Astronomical Institute of Czechoslovak Academy of

Sciences, where he published a well-cited catalogue (Catalogue of

Galactic Planetary Nebulae, 1967). Kohoutek obtained a long term position

at the Bergedorf Observatory in

Hamburg. After the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia (1968) he decided to

stay in West Germany (1970). His discoveries in the 1970s made him well-known

in the media. In later years Kohoutek worked in observatories in Spain and

Chile, working with planetary nebulae. He officially retired in 2001, yet he is

still researching at the Hamburg-Bergedorf Observatory.

Kohoutek has published 162 scientific works.

Kohoutek

is most famous for his discovery of numerous comets,

including periodic well as the famously disappointing "Comet Kohoutek" (C/1973 E1). He

has also discovered numerous asteroids, including the Apollo asteroid 1865 Cerberus. The main-belt asteroid 1850 Kohoutek was named after him.
