      Everybody knows Marie Curie was a woman and woman’s contributions to science just don’t exist or even register. Women scientists are literally the devil. /s

        Marie Curie didn’t discover fission; that was Lise Meitner and her nephew Otto Frisch and colleague Otto Hahn. But yeah, same problem. Meitner was left out of the publications and overlooked for a Nobel Prize.
