Kenneth Irwin Kellermann (born July 1, 1937)[1] is an American astronomer at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory.[2][3] He is best known for his work on quasars. He won the Helen B. Warner Prize for Astronomy of the American Astronomical Society in 1971,[4] and the Bruce Medal of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific in 2014.
Kellerman was a member of the National Academy of Sciences,[5] the American Academy of Arts and Sciences,[6] and the American Philosophical Society.[7]
Kellermann was born in New York City to Alexander Kellermann and Rae Kellermann (née Goodstein). His paternal grandparents emigrated from Hungary and his maternal grandparents from Romania.[8][9][10]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
