Summary

Have you ever wondered what stars are made of? This is the story of a girl who loved gazing up at the sky. Her name was Cecilia Payne, and she was the first to discover one of the great mysteries of the Universe. However, her revolutionary finding was not widely accepted at the time. Only with perseverance, courage and a passion for knowledge did she manage to become a pioneer in the scientific field. And, in the process, she paved the way for all the women who dreamed of dedicating themselves to science.
