Women in radio science: Coffee, cake and comet crumbs

摘要

I learned to know the name Hajduková a long time ago, when I started to read papers in meteor astronomy about the Halley comet, and what existed in interplanetary space. At my first Meteoroids conference, in Tatranská Lomnica in the Tatra Mountains in Slovakia in 1998, for the first time, I met the famous meteor family, Anton Hajduk, Mariá Hajduková, and Mariá Hajduková Jr. Father Anton was a professor at the Astronomical Institute of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, Department of Interplanetary Matter. Mother Maria was at the Faculty of Mathematics Physics and Informatics, Department of Astronomy, Physics of the Earth, and Meteorology, Comenius University, Bratislava.
