Story
Yvonne Clark had an engineering spark—an instinct for figuring out how things worked. Broken lamp? She screwed, rewired, and wrenched until…light! Wrecked radio? She twisted, snipped, and hammered until…music! Clogged furnace? She picked, plucked, and cleared until…heat! When she grew up, Yvonne’s problem-solving power took her to NASA, where fellow engineers had a serious problem with the Saturn V rocket’s F-1 engine: It had hot spots—high temperatures in the engine. Can Yvonne Clark and her engineering spark solve the problem?

Story
Even when he was a kid, Albert Einstein did things his own way. He thought in pictures instead of words, and his special way of thinking helped him understand big ideas like the structure of music and why a compass always points north. Those ideas made him want to keep figuring out the secrets of the universe. Other people thought he was just a dreamer, but because of his curiosity, Einstein grew up to be one of the greatest scientists the world has ever known.

Born and raised in India, Kalpana Chawla was told that she shouldn’t try to become an aeronautical engineer because it was hard for women everywhere to succeed in that field. But she persisted, getting her university degree and then immigrating to the US to keep studying. She then joined NASA and became the first Indian-born American woman to go to space. Though she was tragically killed in the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster, she continues to inspire people in India, the United States, and around the world to pursue their dreams of reaching for the stars.

"Phantasie ist wichtiger als Wissen, denn das Wissen ist begrenzt." Dies scheint das Geheimnis Albert Einsteins zu sein, denn aufgrund seiner geistigen Originalität gilt er als Genie der Naturwissenschaft. Die Bedeutung seiner Relativitätstheorie erstreckt sich bis heute auf alle Vorgänge der Natur. Doch Einstein war mehr als ein Physiker. Er wurde bewundert wegen seines Mutes, seiner Wahrheitsliebe und seines Einsatzes für den Frieden.

Seine Entdeckungen zu Licht und Farben, zur Schwerkraft und zur höheren Mathematik revolutionierten das menschliche Denken und die Vorstellung von unserer Welt. Newton erfand nicht nur eine neue Art von Teleskop, sondern entwickelte auch die Infinitesimalrechnung und formulierte das Newtonsche Gravitationsgesetz. Fiel da vorher wirklich ein Apfel auf seinen Kopf? Als Wissenschaftshistoriker befasst sich Prof. Dr. Jürgen Renn vom Max-Planck-Institut für Wissenschaftsgeschichte mit der Frage, wie sich menschliches Wissen entwickelt und entwickelt hat.

At least as far back as the ancient myth of Icarus, humans longed to fly - but it wasn't until December 17, 1903, on the windy dunes of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, that the dream finally came true. And it was all thanks to Orville and Wilbur Wright, two former bicycle mechanics who built their first toy plane - a rubber-band powered rotary - when they were just children.

Have you ever heard of the “Mercury 13” women? Did you know that nearly twenty years before the first women were let into NASA’s astronaut program, there were others who tried? What are the requirements for being shot into space, piloting a hunk of metal while carrying the hopes and fears of your nation? Mastery of flying, as well as courage, intelligence, resistance to stress, and fitness – any checklist would certainly include these. But when America created NASA in 1958, there was an unspoken rule in place....

Rosalind Franklin loved science, but when she was young, there weren’t many woman scientists. Still, she persisted in pursuing her dreams, becoming a scientist and playing a key role in the discovery of the double-helix structure of DNA (what we’re all made up of). Though her male colleagues took credit for her work at the time, we now know just how important her discoveries were to figuring out what our DNA looks like and how it works!
