It's good to see Eunice Newton Foote, who was a distant relative of Sir Issac Newton, getting her due. If you would like to learn more about her, Roland Jackson and I published a detailed history of science paper regarding her discovery and the first analysis of her results in Notes and Records, a history of science journal of the Royal Society of London. You can find the paper here. https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10.1098/rsnr.2020.0031

What Mica said-thank you so much!
Another figure from history, like the story you did of Humboldt showed- who has not gotten her just recognition. Thanks Sam!
