    I absolutely cackled at the 90 year old woman comment at the end. Same 😂 One of my favorite quotes is an old Serbian proverb: "be humble for you are made of earth, but be noble for you are also made of stars."

    I'd heard about Annie Cannon many times before in my studies of the Harvard Computers, but I'd never learned she was deaf! She was also actually very very gay. She was the lifelong friend and partner in illness and death of Williamina Fleming, the maid that Pickering hired.

    My astronomy teacher had us memorize Annie's system by using the moniker, "Only bad astronomers forget generally know mnemonics" because she didn't really like the other moniker. We just had to memorize r, n, and s because they were added to the classification system later

    Annie Jump Cannon is the bomb! She furthered the field of astronomy so much and she's always been an inspiration and role model to me. You left out a tiny interesting tidbit as to why those letters were chosen for the classifications, though! She started sorting them alphabetical based on magnitude (brightness) and some other characteristics, with A basically being the brightest and Z being the dimmest. By catagorizing them this way, she realized that all stars cluster into just those several types that we use today, and that we can use their spectroscopy (the colors of light and brightness they give off) to determine the size and age of the star! 🌟

Thank you for helping me realize.

    Hearing loss due to an ear infection. Been there. I have a chromosome disorder called Turner syndrome which impacted (among other things) my ears ability to drain fluid. I was prone to ear infections as a child and started wearing hearing aids almost 3 years ago. I’m a couple weeks shy of 25 and it’s comforting hearing (no pun intended) from another young person who wears hearing aids. Sorry this comment is so long.

    Thank you, Jessica, for bringing to light the story of this incredible woman. I would have never thought to research her on my own. It is truly remarkable how, unfortunately, the treatment of women in the workforce, while better than in the past...continues to be severely lacking in terms of equality. More videos such as this one can & should open up people's minds to the vast array intellect, strength, & character of those we may have overlooked. And perhaps propel all of us today to recognize & appreciate the determination of our fellow human beings. No obstacle, be it professionally, physically, mentally, or socially...should dictate our future.
    Absolutely fantastic video! Lovely as always 👍🤟💝

Brazen is a book that has multiple bibliographies about different women throughout history in a variety of fields. The interesting thing about this book is it's done in a comic format! Having colored panels detailing each woman's story.
