- Description
- The Moon, or more precisely the nomenclature of lunar craters, still holds up a mirror to an important aspect of human history. Of the 1586 craters that have been named honoring philosophers and scientists, only 28 honor a woman. These 28 women of the Moon present us with an opportunity to meditate on this gap, but perhaps more significantly, they offer us an opportunity to talk about their lives, mostly unknown today.

- Description
- Examination of the participation of women in physics and astronomy at each step up the academic ladder, starting with high school and ending with college and university faculty. Comparison of the representation of women earning bachelor's degrees and PhDs in physics and astronomy with the representation of women in other scientific disciplines. The authors look at how the representation of women earning degrees in various scientific disciplines has changed over time and at the question why women disproportionately leave these fields in stead of moving up the academic ladder.

She was a woman of many firsts: the first to receive a PhD in astronomy from Radcliffe College, the first promoted to full professor at Harvard, the first to head a department there. And, in what has been called “the most brilliant PhD thesis ever written in astronomy,” she was the first to describe what stars are made of.
