Biography
Franz Heinrich Kaiser (25 April 1891 – 13 March 1962) was a German astronomer.
He worked at the Heidelberg-Königstuhl Observatory from 1911 to 1914 while working on his Ph.D. there, which he obtained in 1915. During this time Heidelberg was a center of asteroid discovery, and Kaiser discovered 21 of asteroids during his time there.
The outer main-belt asteroid 3183 Franzkaiser, discovered by his college astronomer Karl Reinmuth in 1949, was named in his memory on 1 September 1993 (M.P.C. 22497).
