In 1968 (10 November), Lovelace discovered period \(P\approx 33\) ms of the Crab Pulsar.[1][2] As a graduate student working at Arecibo Observatory, Lovelace developed a version of the Fast Fourier transform program [3] which was adapted to run on the Arecibo Observatory's CDC 3200 computer [4]. This program helped to separate the periodic pulsar signal from the noise, and one night he discovered the period of the Crab pulsar, and estimated it with a high precision, 33.09 ms, and also the position of the pulsar on the sky with precision of 10'.[5][6] A month earlier, observers from Jordell Bank observatory reported about possible presence of two pulsars in Crab Nebula, with a possible period of 1 second <ref name=>. Lovelace and collaborators found that only one pulsar is present (the NP ...Crab Pulsar), found its precise position with accuracy of 10' and period of 33.09 ms, which was the shortest-period pulsar for that time.
