Unless my knowledge is very mistaken Rhysling shows up in at least two
stories by RAH. To wit, "The Green Hills of Earth" and " Time Enough for
Love".  The character is a totally optically impared ( not blind, just without
optical ability) space tramp who was at one time an engineer on a space liner.
At the time we meet him he was living by singing in bars and cafes ( as well as
an occasional bordello) and being a philosopher.

hope this helps ,
alex
