designation
(2641) Lipschutz was named after Michael E. Lipschutz , who was a professor of chemistry at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana . He has authored or co-authored more than 100 scientific articles on meteorites , radiochemistry , cosmochemistry , the Antarctic, and extraterrestrial materials processing. In 1962 he received the annual Nininger Prize which - like the asteroid (2421) Nininger - is named after the American meteorite researcher Harvey Harlow Nininger . He received three NASA achievement awards and was awarded a Certificate of Appreciation from the National Commission on Space in 1986 .
