Maria Mitchell
Maria Mitchell was a pioneering American astronomer in the 19th century, renowned for her discovery of a comet in 1847, which made her the first woman to achieve such a feat. She was a strong advocate for women's education in science and served as a role model for future generations of female scientists, including Vera Rubin, who later studied at Vassar College, where Mitchell had taught.
