My favorite astronomer is our Dover girl #AnnieJumpCannon. She is always my first choice for #Delaware #STEAM and #womenshistorymonth. #TheGlassUniverse is book by Dava Sobel who just wrote a book about #MarieCurie.
Art as shadow. All year long the shadow cast moves differently across my main galleryβ¦Annie Jump Cannon is the name of this one. She is Dover Delawareβs most famous woman. She named all the stars and since our βsunβ plays such a fun role each day in this room, all those interested in Astronomy, the stars, STEAM education, #womenshistorymonth should give our favorite Dover Daughter a gander. Annie is truly a delight to learn about. Also check out The Glass Universe by Dava Sobel to learn more about Annieβs life in Dover and at Harvard. She is truly amazing.

This is Annie Jump Cannon house. She is #Dover #Delaware most famous woman. When you Google her itβs hard to believe thereβs so little attention paid to her. Her home was out on Historic Register a while ago. The book #TheGlassUniverse by #DavaSobel devotes many pages to Annie. Love these posts!

My main gallery room is named after #AnnieJumpCannon. Sheβs Doverβs most famous woman who few in town probably ever heard of. I advocate for many things & #history is #herstory as well. My #stellar s-heroβAnnieβs star-naming system is still in use. Dava Sobel wrote #TheGlassUniverse #womenshistory
