Lise Meitner's name probably doesn't ring a bell, but if you look at a periodic table, you'll see that element 109, "meitnerium," was named in her honor. According to many historians, this woman didn't win the Nobel Prize alongside other male scientists because of her "controversial" opinions and because she was a woman. We reflected on this last fact in our post about Female Scientists Who Deserve Recognition, but today at Supercurioso, we invite you to join us to learn who Lise Meitner was, the scientist who refused to collaborate on the atomic bomb. We're sure you'll be interested in learning more!
