A tuxedo cat gazes lovingly at his owner who is dressed in a red sweater and is smiling into the camera. The cat has climbed onto the back of the chair that the human is sitting in, and the cat is perched perfectly and is looking at her smile. The cat and the person are in a greenhouse.

The Computers at Harvard College Observatory were among the greatest astrophysicists in history. That’s what happens when men think the only “real” science is theoretical and data analysis is beneath them. #WomenInSTEM

Gertrude Caton Thompson (1888–1985), the pioneering English archaeologist and Fellow of the British Academy renowned for her groundbreaking work in Egyptian prehistory (including distinguishing Neolithic cultures in the Faiyum depression) and her 1928–1929 stratigraphic excavations at Great Zimbabwe—which conclusively proved the site's medieval African origins, debunking racist colonial myths attributing it to Phoenicians or other non-African builders—poses in a classic black-and-white studio portrait from her mid-career years. The composed woman gazes directly at the camera with a calm, intelligent expression, her dark hair neatly styled in soft waves typical of the 1920s–1930s. She wears a light-colored blouse or dress with intricate embroidered zigzag and floral patterns along the neckline and shoulders. The soft, neutral dark background and subtle lighting highlight her dignified features and the fine details of her attire, capturing the determined spirit of a trailblazing scholar who advanced rigorous, evidence-based archaeology in male-dominated fields and challenging political contexts.
Archaeologist Gertrude Caton Thompson led the first all-female archaeological expedition in history in 1929.
She was one of the first in the field to use aerial surveys to identify sites, using them successfully for her famed work in Zimbabwe & Egypt. She died #OTD in 1985.

The education system is superior to the US public university system, especially for #WomenInStem and overall literacy rates
The people of a country are often much different than how their leaders are perceived
This is a reason for the USA & Israel hating #TikTok bc it shows Iran & China unfiltered
