The Glass Universe: How the Ladies of the Harvard Observatory Took the Measure of the Stars In the late 19th century, the field of astronomy was dominated by men, but a group of women at the Harvard Observatory dared to challenge this status quo and make their mark on the scientific community. The Glass Universe, written by Dava Sobel, tells the story of these pioneering women who defied societal norms and pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible for women in science. Through their groundbreaking work, they not only advanced our understanding of the stars but also paved the way for future generations of female scientists. At the heart of the book are three remarkable women: Williamina Fleming, Antonia Maury, and Annie Jump Cummings. Each brought unique skills and perspectives to the observatory, where they were tasked with cataloging and measuring the stars using a new technology called the photographic plate. This innovation allowed them to capture images of celestial objects with unprecedented clarity and precision, leading to significant discoveries that revolutionized the field of astronomy. Williamina Fleming, a Scottish immigrant with no formal education beyond high school, was initially hired as a maid at the observatory.
The Glass Universe: How the Ladies of the Harvard Observatory Taken the Measure of the Stars В конце XIX века в области астрономии доминировали мужчины, но группа женщин в Гарвардской обсерватории осмелилась оспорить этот статус-кво и сделать свой след в научном сообществе. «Стеклянная Вселенная», написанная Давой Собел, рассказывает историю этих женщин-первопроходцев, которые бросили вызов социальным нормам и раздвинули границы того, что считалось возможным для женщин в науке. Благодаря своей новаторской работе они не только улучшили наше понимание звезд, но и проложили путь для будущих поколений женщин-ученых. В основе книги три замечательные женщины: Уильямина Флеминг, Антония Мори и Энни Джамп Каммингс. Каждый из них привнес уникальные навыки и перспективы в обсерваторию, где им была поставлена задача каталогизировать и измерять звезды с помощью новой технологии, называемой фотопластинка. Это нововведение позволило им запечатлеть изображения небесных объектов с беспрецедентной четкостью и точностью, что привело к значительным открытиям, совершившим революцию в области астрономии. Уильямина Флеминг, шотландская иммигрантка без формального образования после средней школы, первоначально была нанята горничной в обсерватории.

The Glass Universe: How the Ladies of the Harvard Observatory Took the Measure of the Stars (Cam Evren: Harvard Gözlemevi Hanımları Yıldızların Ölçüsünü Nasıl Aldı) 19. yüzyılın sonunda, astronomiye erkekler egemen oldu, ancak Harvard Gözlemevi'ndeki bir grup kadın bu statükoya meydan okumaya ve bilimsel topluluğa damgasını vurmaya cesaret etti. Dava Sobel tarafından yazılan "Cam Evren", sosyal normlara meydan okuyan ve bilimde kadınlar için mümkün olanın sınırlarını zorlayan bu öncü kadınların hikayesini anlatıyor. Öncü çalışmaları sayesinde, sadece yıldız anlayışımızı geliştirmekle kalmadılar, aynı zamanda gelecek nesil kadın bilim insanlarının da önünü açtılar. Kitabın merkezinde üç dikkat çekici kadın var: Williamina Fleming, Antonia Morey ve Annie Jump Cummings. Her biri gözlemevine benzersiz beceriler ve perspektifler getirdi; burada fotografik plaka adı verilen yeni bir teknoloji kullanarak yıldızları kataloglamak ve ölçmekle görevlendirildiler. Bu yenilik, gök cisimlerinin görüntülerini benzeri görülmemiş bir netlik ve doğrulukla yakalamalarına izin verdi ve bu da astronomi alanında devrim yaratan önemli keşiflere yol açtı. Williamina Fleming, liseden sonra resmi bir eğitimi olmayan İskoç bir göçmen, başlangıçta gözlemevinde hizmetçi olarak işe alındı.
