Have you ever gone outside at night and looked up at the stars? Maybe you have wondered what is really out there in the dark sky. Vera Rubin asked those same things, and her questions made a big difference in how we see the world and the universe. She was a smart and strong Jewish-American astronomer. Her work was huge in the world of science. Vera’s life is about having a love for what you do, not giving up, and speaking up when needed. In this story, we talk about all the ways Vera Rubin led the way for others. Places like the Jewish Book Council honor her, and her story still gives hope to many people today.
