30840 Jackalice           Discovered 1991 Apr. 15 by C. S. Shoemaker and D. H. Levy at Palomar.
Jack Newton (b. 1942) is a Canadian astrophotographer credited with some of the most famous ground-based photographs ever taken. His work, from the sun to a gravitational lens, has appeared in major news magazines. His wife Alice has long assisted him in every one of his outreach efforts, in both Canada and the U.S.
