摘要：
W. N.克里斯·克里斯蒂安森是一位创新和有影响力的射电天文学先驱。他在科学和工程领域长达50年的杰出职业生涯的标志是他的创造力以及他对大型项目的承诺和成功。这些项目是他作为物理学家和工程师的创新技能的结果。除此之外，他还同样致力于建立强有力的国际联系和友谊，因此他于1964年至1970年当选为国际天文学联合会副主席，1978年至1981年当选为国际无线电科学联合会主席，随后于1984年当选为名誉终身主席，1981年至1985年任澳大利亚科学院外交秘书。射电天文学和无线通信在全球范围内的重大后续发展是克里斯工作方法和与他一起工作的人的发展的遗产。
英文摘要：
W. N. ('Chris') Christiansen was an innovative and influential radio astronomy pioneer. The hallmarks of his long and distinguished career in science and engineering, spanning almost five decades, were his inventiveness and his commitment to, and success with, large-scale projects. These projects were the outcome of his innovative skill as physicist and engineer. Paralleling this was his equal commitment to forging strong international links and friendships, leading to his election as Vice-President of the International Astronomical Union for the years 1964 to 1970, as President of the International Union of Radio Science, URSI, from 1978 to 1981, and subsequently as Honorary Life President in 1984, and as Foreign Secretary of the Australian Academy of Science from 1981 to 1985. Major subsequent developments in radio astronomy and wireless communications on the global scene stand as a legacy to Chris's approach to his work and to the development of those who worked with him.
