Måske har du hørt om det fantastiske Hubble-rumteleskop. Men har du så også hørt om manden, det er opkaldt efter?I 1920’erne benyttede Edwin Hubble datidens største astronomiske teleskop til at undersøge og lære om galakser. Hans opdagelser førte til, at vi i dag ved, at Universet udvider sig, og at Mælkevejen blot er én ud af utallige andre galakser.Universet er enormt! Og det ved vi, fordi Hubble viede sit forskerliv til astronomien.
Rachel Carson var marinbiolog, og hendes speciale var derfor havene og dets væsner. Rachel påviste, at de pesticider vi sprøjter på markerne, spreder sig til havene, floderne og resten af naturen.Hendes forskning, bogudgivelser og deltagelse i tv-programmer gjorde, at verden fik øjnene op for miljøbeskyttelse.I dag ved vi alle, at vi skal passe på miljøet. Det ved vi, fordi Rachel Carson viede sit forskerliv til at fortælle om og bekæmpe forurening.
Du har sikkert set billeder af ham i kørestolen, og du har sikkert også hørt hans computerstemme.Stephen Hawking var det meste af sit liv ramt af sygdommen ALS, men sygdommen holdt ham ikke tilbage fra at udøve banebrydende forskning i fysik.Takket være Stephen Hawking har vi i dag en forståelse af sorte huller, der er et af de mest besynderlige objekter i rummet.

Marie Curie forskede i radioaktivitet.Hun blev den første kvindelige underviser på universitetet i Paris. Hun blev også dets første kvindelige professor, og den første kvinde til at modtage en Nobelpris.Marie undersøgte også røntgenstråling, og hun opfandt en mobil røntgenmaskine, der hjalp til med at redde livet for mange sårede soldater under Første Verdenskrig.I dag ved vi, hvad radioaktivitet er og skyldes, og vi kan bruge det i både industrien og forskningen. Det skyldes alt sammen, at Marie Curie viede sit forskerliv til at undersøge radioaktivitet.
