Jeremi Wasiutyński
Jeremi Maria Franciszek Wasiutyński (born 5 October 1907 in Warsaw, died 8 April 2005 in Oslo) was a Polish-Norwegian astrophysicist, philosopher and depth-psychologist. Life and work 
Wasiutyński studied mathematics, physics and astronomy at the University of Warsaw, then worked some years at a factory for optical instruments, while writing a text-book in two volumes of general astronomy with professor M. Kamieński. In 1938, after the publication of his prize-winning book about Copernicus (Kopernik, twórca nowego nieba, 1937), Wasiutyński moved to Norway, where he completed his degree in astrophysics at the University of Oslo 1948. His interdisciplinary doctoral dissertation, Studies in hydrodynamics and structure of stars and planets (Oslo 1946), offers a detailed study of the mechanical and thermal effects of turbulence in rotating stars. Wasiutynski declined offers of positions at universities (in Norway and Poland), working for several years as an independent scholar; from 1964 he held the Norwegian State Scholarship. Wasiutyński's two main works, almost 40 years in the making, were published in 2002 and 2003; The Speech of God and The Solar Mystery. The Speech of God (2002) explains his cosmological synthesis, while The Solar Mystery (2003) offers an in-depth re-evaluation of the influences that drove Copernicus to formulate his heliocentric model. In 2007, a revised edition of his biography of Copernicus was published in Poland; in 2017 this book was published in Norwegian, translated by Gunnar Arneson. Wasiutyński left several unpublished manuscripts in English and Norwegian. The literary rights of dr. Wasiutyński are now held by Ms. Sissel Klokkhammer, Norway. Homepage for dr.
