Biography

He was born July 5, 1930. Wilhelms was the recipient of the G. K. Gilbert Award in 1988. He received the Shoemaker Distinguished Lunar Scientist Award in 2010 at the Ames Research Center.[6]

The mineral Donwilhelmsite is named after Wilhelms.[7] The fact that this mineral is formed only at high shock pressure such as that created by impacts is appropriate given the focus of Wilhelms' studies.

Minor planet 4826 Wilhelms is named in his honor.[8]
