Biography:
Jeffrey Wilson has been looking at crop circles in the USA since 1996, and has visited well over 100 in the last eight years. He received a Master's Degree in General Science from Eastern Michigan University located in Ypsilanti, Michigan, where he was teaching Physics and Astronomy, and helping run Sherzer Observatory on a volunteer basis. He has also taught Astronomy at Schoolcraft College in Livonia, Michigan. He is a six time certified Skywarn weather spotter for the county where he lives.
Wilson wanted to write his Master's thesis on crop circles but couldn't get any academics to sponsor it. Instead he received a grant from NASA to analyze and map geologic reflectivity data from the Lunar Prospector Mission.
