Ep8. A Fleeing Physicist & The Cinderella of Science

Crack open a deceptively acidic bottle of Lost Angel moscato  and prepare to get sciencey as fuck as Kelley & Emily cover two underappreciated STEM ladies! Emily starts off by covering physicist Hedwig Kohn. The ladies talk about Hedwig's SUPER FRUSTRATING escape from Nazi Germany and how they aren't qualified to be U.S. citizens. Then, Kelley gets astronomical (astrologonomical?) covering the Cinderella of Science Caroline Herschel! Though Caroline came from humble beginnings and she struggled to escape her brother's shadow, she went on to become an incredible astronomer! Crack open your textbooks and cover Uranus because herstory has never been this tipsy!  ** Mornings with u by Barradeen | https://soundcloud.com/barradeenMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unportedhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en_US  Support the show10% Off Your First Month of BetterHelp: betterhelp.com/herstory www.buymeacoffee.com/wahpod Join the Funerary Cult: https://www.patreon.com/winingaboutherstorySponsor a Glass of Wine: https://buymeacoffee.com/wahpodGet Merch: https://wining-about-herstory.myspreadshop.com/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
