Biography

Tucker was raised in Memphis, Tennessee. In 1966, he became a member of Memphis Astronomical Society and received a master's degree in Scientific Instrumentation from the University of California, Santa Barbara.[5] He worked as a senior engineer in the Imaging Technology Laboratory of the University of Arizona and as an instrumentalist at Kitt Peak National Observatory.[2] He observed and discovered minor planets at his private Goodricke-Pigott Observatory in southern Arizona.[2][6]

Death

Tucker passed away on March 5, 2021, due to pancreatic cancer.[7][8]
