She loved solving problems. And she loved pushing the limits of what girls and women were expected to do and be. In the mid-twentieth century, women were not welcome in the sciences, but Marie was tenacious. She got a job at a laboratory in New York. But then she faced another barrier: women were not allowed on the research ships (they were considered bad luck on boats). So instead, Marie stayed back and dove deep into the data her colleagues recorded. She mapped point after point and slowly revealed a deep rift valley in the ocean floor. At first the scientific community refused to believe her, but her evidence was irrefutable. She proved to the world that her research was correct. The mid-ocean ridge that Marie discovered is the single largest geographic feature on the planet, and she mapped it all from her small, cramped office." -- Amazon.com   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Lihue Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 526.092 Tharp Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library J -- Juvenile Biography B Tharp Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library J -- Juvenile Biography B Tharp Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library J -- Juvenile Biography B Tharp Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library J -- Juvenile Biography B Tharp Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library J -- Juvenile Biography B Tharp Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: Prev 1 2
