Vera Rubin

Vera Florence Cooper Rubin was an American astronomer who pioneered work on galaxy rotation rates. She uncovered the discrepancy between the predicted angular motion of galaxies and the observed motion, by studying galactic rotation curves. This phenomenon became known as the galaxy rotation problem, and was evidence of the existence of dark matter. Although initially met with skepticism, Rubin’s results were confirmed over subsequent decades. Her legacy was described by The New York Times as “ushering in a Copernican-scale change” in cosmological theory.

Rubin spent her life advocating for women in science and was known for her mentorship of aspiring women astronomers. Her data provided some of the first evidence for dark matter, which had been theorized by Fritz Zwicky in the 1930s. She was honored throughout her career for her achievements, and received the Bruce Medal, the Gold Medal of the Royal Astronomical Society, and the National Medal of Science, among others. source

Use the frame to make perfect sheets

Wait 73839393 hours

When they are dried be careful and don’t rip them off

Write down your personal theory of everything

Win the Nobel

Use the remaining recycled paper to dry your happy tears

reviewing physics notes bc an exam is in a few days. whenever i don't want to work, i take a deep breath and just tell myself this will be worth it in the end.. 👍

I made these for my Instagram page last year, and I'm just reposting these notes here. They are on the integral form of Gauss' law, the first of Maxwell's equations. I guess this would have been better explained in a video but oh well.

I love libraries SO much. If any of you see my book at your library can you please take a picture of it for me??? I haven't had the chance to hang out at a library properly for a few years so when we moved back to NZ it was on my priority list haha. The number of books that I take out at a time is definitely an exaggeration HAHA but I do often take out a few very heavy ones at the same time and it feels like a workout to bring them home. Searching through books always feels like an exciting treasure hunt.

'No-one gets ink stains like yours out of a desire for money.'

Jo March, a protagonist of Louisa May Alcott's novel 'Little Women'

Ambition can dig like a needle; mostly, you have to pull a dream forward, but sometimes it pushes you. And it prods and bites and stings when things seem hopeless; when you have aspirations, the thought of them wilting wounds you like nothing else.

Life can seem like a series of wounds.

Much like ambition, the longing for love both pulls and pushes— but in which direction, who can say? The bright winds of freedom seem harsh without a hand to hold; and yet, the brightness of Summer love smothers without them.
