I think everyone is tired of the black people month so I think we should start woman's history month early so we can get that over with sooner too
did you know a woman named Marie Tharp co-created the first scientific map of the atlantic ocean floor?
very
cool
since women weren't allowed on research ships, she had to do all her work from land. she took depth measurements and drew maps from them by hand, eventually using these drawing to prove the previously dismissed theory that continents were drifting apart. her ideas were initially dismissed as "girl talk" but thankfully a man named Bruce Heezen came along and took credit for her work so people would believe it was credible and not made by a woman.
