About the scientist:

Annie Jump Cannon (1863-1941) was an American astronomer who made significant contributions to the field of astronomy during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Cannon's most notable achievements include the development of the Harvard Classification Scheme, which is still used today as a system for categorizing stars based on their spectral characteristics. She also cataloged over 350,000 stars and discovered several new variable stars. Cannon's work greatly advanced our understanding of stellar evolution and has had a lasting impact on the field of astronomy. Despite facing gender discrimination during her career, Cannon's dedication and persistence helped pave the way for future generations of female astronomers.
