Question: Who has the highest scope of profession in  Dirk Frimout or André Kuipers
Context: The Orchard Hill Observatory is an astronomical observatory located at the highest point on the University of Massachusetts Amherst campus.  Constructed in 1965, the observatory is a red brick building with a 16 inch Cassegrain reflector optical telescope.  It is used for several community events and is regularly open for public viewing on Thursday nights.  Originally the observatory was home to a 20” telescope, given to the department by an avid amateur who lived in central Massachusetts.  It was a 1/10 scale model (loosely) of a larger 200” scope.  Eventually, a crack was spotted during one of the re-aluminizings of the 20” mirror and the scope was no more.  In the meantime, the department had been granted money associated with its move from Hasbrouck to the Grad Research Tower to buy a small telescope and put in on top of the GRC.  The GRC had a small "isolation" pad built on its roof, which was supposed to be a mount for the scope, which could be accessed via a small open elevator.  However, the GRC had terrible noise and gross vibration problems.  The isolation pad never worked and there were too many safety concerns about using the roof of the building for observing.  A 16" telescope was later bought from Competition Associates (a racing car company).  That scope arrived in1976 but because of the problems with using the top of the GRC, the scope was never mounted there.  In fact, it sat in the basement of Hasbrouck for perhaps 10 years, becoming known as the "Subterranean Telescope.”  This situation finally led to the 20" being dissembled and the 16" scope being moved to Orchard Hill and installed in the dome there.  The 16" was a major improvement in usability.  As to what happened to the 20", the mirror may have been stored in the Astronomy Research Facility but the drive was most likely not kept. Optometry is a health care profession which involves examining the eyes and applicable visual systems for defects or abnormalities as well as the medical diagnosis and management of eye disease.  Traditionally, the field of optometry began with the primary focus of correcting refractive error through the use of spectacles.  Modern day optometry, however, has evolved through time so that the education curriculum additionally includes intensive medical training in the diagnosis and management of ocular disease in countries where the profession is established and regulated.  Optometrists (also known as Doctors of Optometry in the US and Canada for those holding the O.D. degree or Ophthalmic Opticians in the UK) are medical professionals who provide primary eyecare through comprehensive eye examinations to detect and treat various visual abnormalities and eye diseases.  Being a regulated profession, an optometrist's scope of practice may differ depending on the location.  Thus, disorders or diseases detected outside the treatment scope of optometry are referred out to relevant medical professionals for proper care, more commonly to ophthalmologists who are physicians that specialize in tertiary medical and surgical care of the eye.  Optometrists typically work closely together with other eye care professionals such as ophthalmologists and opticians to deliver quality and efficient eyecare to the general public. The National Association for Chiropractic Medicine (NACM) was a minority chiropractic association founded in 1984 that described itself as a "consumer advocacy association of chiropractors".  It openly rejected some of the more controversial aspects of chiropractic, including a basic concept of chiropractic, vertebral subluxations as the cause of all diseases.  It also sought to "reform the chiropractic profession away from a philosophical scope of practice and towards an applied science scope of practice."  It stated that it was "dedicated to bringing the scientific based practice of chiropractic into mainstream medicine" and that its members "confine their scope of practice to scientific parameters and seek to make legitimate the utilization of professional manipulative procedures in mainstream health care delivery."  "While the NACM is focused on furthering the profession, its primary focus is on the rights and safety of the consumers."  The NACM was the object of much controversy and criticism from the rest of the profession.  It quietly dropped out of sight and its demise apparently occurred sometime between May 30, 2008 and March 6, 2010. Frank, Viscount De Winne (born 25 April 1961, in Ledeberg, Belgium) is a Belgian Air Component officer and an ESA astronaut.  He is Belgium's second person in space (after Dirk Frimout).  He was the first ESA astronaut to command a space mission when he served as commander of ISS Expedition 21.  ESA astronaut de Winne serves currently as Head of the European Astronaut Centre of the European Space Agency in Cologne/Germany (Köln). The Arges project was a research project in the field of metal-halide lamps, a form of electric lighting.  The aim was to achieve a higher degree of energy efficiency in comparison to lamps used at the time.  The project was commissioned by Eindhoven University of Technology and Philips Electronics.  One of the problems which had to be solved was to let the experimental lamps burn reliably and constantly.  Scientists believed that this problem was related to gravity, and to ascertain this experiments had to be performed in zero gravity.  Therefore, part of the research took place aboard the International Space Station ISS during the Delta Mission in 2004.  Dutch astronaut André Kuipers operated the apparatus transported to the ISS aboard the Soyuz TMA-4. Dirk Dries David Damiaan, Viscount Frimout (born 21 March 1941 in Poperinge, Belgium) is an astrophysicist for the European Space Agency.  He flew aboard NASA Space Shuttle mision STS-45 as a payload specialist , making him the first Belgian in space . Soyuz TMA-4 was a Soyuz mission to the International Space Station (ISS) launched by a Soyuz FG launch vehicle.  It was launched on April 19, 2004 (UTC) from Baikonur Cosmodrome.  Gennady Padalka from Russia, Michael Fincke from the USA and André Kuipers from the Netherlands were flown to the International Space Station.  Kuipers returned to Earth 9 days later together with ISS crew 8 with the re-entry module of the Soyuz TMA-3, the other two stayed as ISS crew 9.  The craft landed October 24, 2004 with Padalka, Fincke and Yuri Shargin aboard. Expedition 31 was the 31st long-duration expedition to the International Space Station (ISS).  It began on 27 April 2012 with the departure from the ISS of the Soyuz TMA-22 spacecraft, which returned the Expedition 30 crew to Earth.  The expedition ended on 1 July 2012, when crew members Oleg Kononenko, André Kuipers and Don Pettit departed from the ISS aboard Soyuz TMA-03M, marking the beginning of Expedition 32. André Kuipers (] ; born 5 October 1958) is a Dutch physician and ESA astronaut.  He became the second Dutch citizen, third Dutch-born and fifth Dutch-speaking astronaut upon launch of Soyuz TMA-4 on 19 April 2004.  Kuipers returned to Earth aboard Soyuz TMA-3 11 days later. The Canadian Institute of Actuaries (CIA) is the national organization of the actuarial profession in Canada.  It was incorporated on March 18, 1965.  The FCIA designation stands for Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries.  As the national organization of the Canadian actuarial profession, the CIA means to serve the public through the provision by the profession of actuarial services and advice of the highest quality by: representing the Canadian actuarial profession in the formulation of public policy; promoting the advancement of actuarial science and sponsoring programs for the education and qualification of CIA members and prospective members; ensuring that actuarial services provided by its members meet accepted professional standards; and assisting actuaries in Canada in the discharge of their professional responsibilities.
Answer: André Kuipers
