Jean Picard

Jean Picard (La Flèche, 21 de julio de 1620-París, 12 de julio de 1682) fue un astrónomo, geodesta y sacerdote francés. Estudió en el colegio jesuita Henry Le Grand. Se le considera fundador de la geodesia moderna: fue el primero en medir un arco de un grado del meridiano terrestre mediante triangulación con instrumentos provistos de lentes astronómicas con retícula. Dedujo el radio de la Tierra, supuestamente esférica, con una precisión hasta entonces inigualada (obtuvo 6328,9 km, siendo actualmente de 6357 km, es decir, un error del 0,44%).
