The worst thing that could ever occur in a person's life is the inability to be the person who they want to be and think about life the way they choose to think about life. I have experienced such situations in my own life, and, after reading about the female mathematician Sophie Germain, I found it inspirational--if not, comforting--to know that another woman in history experienced the same in her life. A woman of her own thought, Germain hid her mathematical studies from her parents under the threat of them kicking her out of the house. It is no argument that the legendary Marie-Sophie Germain has become such a revolutionary figure for not only women, but for the mathematical community as a whole.

Sophie Germain was born April 1st of 1776, an era of revolution. The American Revolution began around the year of her birth. Then thirteen years passed when the French Revolution began in her own country. In many ways Sophie personified the spirit of revolution into which she was born. She was a middle class female who went against the wishes of her family and the social prejudices of the time to become a highly recognized mathematician. Like the member of a revolution, her life was full of determination, up and downhill struggles. It took a long time for her to be recognized and appreciated for her contributions to the field of mathematics, but she did not give up. Because she was a woman she was never given as much credit as she was due

Many women have had an impact on science over the years and their accomplishments tend to be underappreciated by the public eye. Often times, there are important people that have made a significant impact on the world that we have today that do not receive the credit and attention that they deserve for their accomplishments. Recognizing and acknowledging people that have made an impact on society now and in the past, is an important part of learning about history and the accomplishments of the past.

The 4 women died while traveling in a limo and it was T-boned by an alleged drunk driver on Long Island while the women enjoyed a weekend tour of the vineyards are being mourned by their relatives and friends. 23 year old Brittney Schulman, and Stepanie Belli of Smithtown and King's Park, respectively; Lauren Baruch, of Smithtown, 24; and Commack's Amy Grabina, 23, were identified as the people who were killed in the accident. These women were among the group of 8 who were celebrating one of the lady's birthdays.

It describes how women did not get as much recognition in the scientific world due to only men in this profession being viewed/praised by society. “Most people have not heard of the women that will be discussed shortly, but surely all have heard of Nicholas Copernicus, Galileo Galilei, Sir Isaac Newton, and Rene Descartes”. “...families criticized their daughters for their absorption in such inappropriate, inelegant, and unfeminine endeavors.”

When a team fails, they are often quick to blame a single player while when in reality the fault lies with them all. This everyday scenario can be related to Arthur Miller’s The Crucible, which takes place in 17th century Salem, Massachusetts. The antagonist of the story is Abigail Williams who begins the accusations of witchcraft, which soon causes hysteria and paranoia in Salem. However, the damage cannot be attributed to one character. In the Crucible, the town is to blame for the Salem Witch Trials because of its strict Puritan background, the widespread feelings of vengeance, and because it is easily gullible and consequently puts strength to meaningless accusations.

Ernesto Schiaparelli was born on July 12, 1856 in Occhieppo Inferiore, Italy. His father, Louis was a professor of ancient history at the University of Turin thus resulting Schiaparelli to have a close connection to history at a young age.

Pouring her time into each book as she had taught herself Latin and Greek, allowing her to read other famous mathematicians work such as Isaac Newton.

In 1781 William Herschel had made a remarkable discovery of a new plant called Uranus. This planet was the first planet to ever be discovered in the history of the world. His discovery brought him much fame and allowed others to further research on the discovery of more planets. Before William started his career in astronomy he lived with his family in Bath England and had played the organ. Shortly after he had gained the permanent position of the organist he started to pursue the likes of astronomy. He started out using small telescopes that didnt really work but then a few years later he moved up to bigger more advanced telescopes. Shorlty after while observing the night sky William had thought that he had found a comet, but later he relayed
