Famous Women Astronomers - Annie Jump Cannon

The 365 Days of Astronomy - Un podcast de 365DaysOfAstronomy.org

She was born on December 11, 1865 in Dover, Delaware. Her parents were Wilson Cannon and Mary Jump. Her father was a shipbuilder and also a state senator, and her mother is the one who got her interested in astronomy and mathematics. She attended what will later be known as Wesley College in Delaware, and then transferred to Wellesley College in Massachusetts.
