Docteur en physique de l'université Yale, il a travaillé à l'Observatoire naval des États-Unis pendant 20 ans. Il a également souvent été cité pour avoir affirmé que le GPS n'a pas besoin d'employer la relativité dans ses calculs.

Thomas Charles Van Flandern, più conosciuto come Tom Van Flandern è stato un astronomo statunitense specializzatosi in Meccanica celeste e divenuto noto internazionalmente anche al di fuori dell'ambiente professionale per le sue teorie, spesso non condivise dalla maggior parte dei suoi colleghi. Si è interessato all'astronomia fin da giovanissimo. In campo astronomico e fisico si è interessato in particolare di meccanica celeste, del sistema solare, di eclissi solari, di asteroidi, di asteroidi binari, di comete, di relatività, di fisica quantistica, di scale temporali: oltre all'astronomia si è interessato anche alla biochimica.

Han tog en PhD i fysik från Yale University och arbetade vid United States Naval Observatory under 20 år. Van Flandern förfäktade Georges-Louis Le Sages diskrediterade gravitationsteori. Van Flandern har också fått en småplanet, 52266 Van Flandern, uppkallad efter sig. (sv) Томас ван Фландерн (англ. Thomas C. van Flandern, 26 июня 1940 — 9 января 2009 года) — американский астроном.
