About this listen

 VALE: Nancy Grace Roman ~ 16 May 1925 ~ 25 December 2018 I'm your host, Brendan O’Brien, and today we're taking a journey through the life and achievements of a truly remarkable astronomer who quite literally changed how we see the universe. Today we're enjoying examining the legacy of Dr Nancy Grace Roman, who spent over 30 years fighting, and winning, to give humanity the greatest space telescope ever built. She's the woman who literally changed how we see the universe. Her name is Nancy Grace Roman, though she's probably better known by a title that would make any scientist proud: the Mother of Hubble.
