A vintage sepia-toned portrait photograph of Danish seismologist Inge Lehmann taken in 1932, at around age 44. She is posed formally against a softly draped curtain backdrop, gazing directly at the camera with a calm, intelligent, and composed expression. She has short, neatly waved dark hair and wears a simple, elegant dark blouse or dress with a light-colored V-neck insert or scarf tied loosely. The image captures her poised and thoughtful demeanor during the early years of her groundbreaking career in seismology, before her landmark discovery of Earth's solid inner core in 1936. #seismology #WomensHistoryMonth
Educational diagram in exploded view showing the internal layers of the Earth. From left to right: a cutaway globe with blue surface and white continents labeled “CRUST,” followed by the thick brown mantle labeled “MANTLE,” the red outer core labeled “OUTER CORE,” and the small yellow inner core labeled “INNER CORE.” A complete blue globe with continents appears on the right for scale. All layers are separated horizontally to reveal the structure.
#OTD in 1936, Danish seismologist Inge Lehmann wrote a famous letter to a colleague outlining her theory that seismic waves (P-waves) recorded from distant earthquakes indicated Earth had a solid inner core.
Her discovery fundamentally changed our understanding of the Earth's interior. #WomenInSTEM
