SciGirls Offers Real STEM Role Models for Young Girls
2024-09-09 10:45:04| Spiritual Career Counseling
SciGirls features female experts in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) targeting middle-school-aged girls.By Shayna KeylesAs a young girl, I loved watching Bill Nyes experiments, Steve Irwins expeditions, and Michio Kakus explanations of the universe. These men made science look cool and exciting. But they also reinforced the idea that science was less accessible for girls like me, who werent physically fit enough to be an astronaut or confident enough with numbers to be a theoretical physicist. The closest thing I had to a female scientist role model was Ms. Frizzle from The Magic School Bus, but the whole premise of that show was based on magical powers, and plus, it was a cartoon: the female scientist wasnt real; she was just a fun fantasy. Unfortunately, there still arent many big-name female scientists out there. Its great that Bill Nye is still churning out science wisdom, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson is making the universe more accessible than ever, but there are...

Unlocking the Secrets of the Universe
2024-09-09 10:45:04| Spiritual Career Counseling
Long ago, about 400,000 years after the beginning of the universe (the Big Bang), the universe was dark. There were no stars or galaxies, and the universe was filled primarily with neutral hydrogen gas.Then, for the next 50-100 million years, gravity slowly pulled the densest regions of gas together until ultimately the gas collapsed in some places to form the first stars.What were those first stars like and when did they form? How did they affect the rest of the universe? These are questions astronomers and astrophysicists have long pondered.Now, after 12 years of experimental effort, a team of scientists, led by ASU School of Earth and Space Exploration astronomer Judd Bowman, has detected the fingerprints of the earliest stars in the universe. Using radio signals, the detection provides the first evidence for the oldest ancestors in our cosmic family tree, born by a mere 180 million years after the universe began."There was a great technical challenge to making this detection, as so...
