STARRED REVIEW! \"An inspiring picture book biography of an inquisitive girl who became a world-renowned scientist, told in accessible language.\"--School Library Journal starred reviewSTARRED REVIEW! \"As gorgeous as it is informative.\"--Kirkus Reviews starred review A biography of astrophysicist Jocelyn Bell Burnell, who helped build a radio telescope that contributed to her discovery of pulsars, a new type of star. Some scientists consider it the greatest astronomical discovery of the twentieth century. Despite this achievement, she was overlooked in favor of two male colleagues when the Nobel Prize for physics was awarded. Bell is still working and teaching today, recognized for her contribution.
Because, of course.
In 1967, while Jocelyn Bell Burnell was studying the data from a giant radio telescope that she had built with other graduate students, she noticed something unexpected: a pulsing radio signal from outer space. Bell Burnell had discovered something no one had ever seen before: a pulsar! The discovery of pulsars earned the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1974, but it was not given to Bell Burnell. Instead, her advisor received the award. Years later, in 2018, Bell Burnell was awarded the Special Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics. She donated the three million dollar prize to a scholarship fund that supports physics graduate students from under-represented groups.
