About Milutin MilankovićMilutin Milanković ultimately gained worldwide prominence in 1976, after results confirming the accuracy of his calculations were published. The number of scientific papers applyi...ng his theory of interpretation of climate changes in the Earth’s geological history has been growing ever since and Milanković became one of the most cited scientists.Milutin Milanković (born in 1879 in Dalj, the then Austrian empire, died in Belgrade in 1958), a civil engineer, academic, professor at the Belgrade University, Vice-President of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, the scientist who explained the occurrence of ice ages in mathematical terms, the creator of the new methodology in climatology, the author of the most precise astronomical calendar was recognised as one of the great names in the 20th century science. The first Serb to earn a PhD in technical sciences (in Vienna in 1903), when invited by the Serbian Government in 1909, Milanković, like many other Serbian intellectuals scattered around the world, motivated by deep patriotism, gave up a highly remunerative civil engineering job in Vienna and came to Belgrade to teach applied mechanics at the University.This scientific genius, whom NASA ranked among the ten most important Earth scientists, summed up all his endeavours in the capital work “Canon of Insolation of the Earth and the Ice-Age Problem”. His astronomical theory of Earth climate changes that is being confirmed today across all meridians clarified the mystery of ice ages on our planet. The term “Milanković’s cycles” recognized in today’s science refers to the great idea of cosmic harmony to which Milankovic was full-heartedly dedicated. Some of the toponyms on the Moon and Mars bear his name, as well as the climatology and meteorology award of the European Geophysical Society, established in 1993. The 130th anniversary of the birth of this great scientist was marked in 2009. The fact that UNESCO included this jubilee in its anniversary list is yet another confirmation of the significance of Milanković’s work. In contrast to the increasing references to Milanković’s work in scientific debates around the world, he was almost forgotten in Serbia and remains insufficiently known among general public even today. By featuring Milutin Milanković’s portrait on the 2000 dinar banknote, one of the series of banknotes currently in circulation, the National Bank of Serbia, in its best practice, wishes to draw the attention of the general public to the importance of Milutin Milanković, one of the world’s leading astronomers and climatologists.
