Donald Trump signed a parliamentary law in the first president’s term, named the astronomy of the federal government after the late astronomer Vera Rubin. This law celebrates her innovative research on dark substances, an invisible mysterious substance that makes up many of the universe, and she is a frank advocate of women’s equal treatment and expression. I pointed out that there is.
“Bella himself offers an excellent example of what will happen when more hearts have participated in science,” said the website of the observatory until recently.
By the morning of Monday, there was no part of her online biography titled “She defended a science woman.” It again appeared in the federal government’s response to the diversity, fairness, and wrapping programs for Trump campaigns, which was a mixed OTIC response.
There are much more earthquakes in the United States than the revision of the three paragraphs on the website, but the editing trails on the page are recognized by the institution and institution that the institution and institution are recognized as “waking up”. We provide an opportunity to navigate tolerance and look into the illuminance. The calculated person must answer the widely open questions.
How far is it too far to recognize inequality and oppose it?
What we are looking at
Propobika focuses on areas that require scrutiny during the second President of Donald Trump. Here are some of the issues that reporters watch and how to contact them safely.
We are doing something new. Was it useful?
“Bella Rubin, whose career began in the 1960s, faced many barriers just because she was a woman,” began a change in the bio. “She continued to study science when she told her that she shouldn’t do her,” she balanced her career. “Her strength, which overcomes these issues, is worthy of praise, but Vera helps other women navigate in her career in the fields of men very much in her career. I worked harder.
The first paragraph disappeared temporarily, then appeared again and day and night.
It was not the case in the following paragraphs: “Science is still dominated by men, but Rubin Observatory is working hard to increase the participation from science and other people. We will take measures to welcome all people and reduce barriers to exclude people with low privileges. “
The paragraph is no longer on Thursday afternoon. Rubin has gone no paragraphs, just like the claim of what will happen when “more hearts” will be when they participate in science. The word “more” was replaced with “many” and changed the meaning.

“I’m convinced that Bella will be furious,” said Jacqueline Mittens, an astronomer and author who co -authored Rubin’s biography. Mitton stated that the “more heart” phrase means “wanting from all backgrounds.”
Rubin, who died in 2016, said that an astronomical platform named after continuing her work for women and other groups who have been rated for a long time in science.
It is unknown who ordered a specific change in Rubin’s biography. The White House, the Observation Deck, and the Federation Government Agency, the National Science Foundation, and the Ministry of Energy did not answer questions from Propublica.
The astronomical pages on diversity, fairness, and inclusion were missing on Thursday afternoon. The archive version on December 19 indicates that it has explained the efforts of the “ensuring fair and fair execution” of the employment process, including training from the “unconscious bias” employment committee. Masu. The DEI program also includes educational and public outreach initiatives such as “satisfying web accessibility standards”, and “organizations that provide services to traditionally underestimated viewers” in science and technology. There is a plan to build a partnership with.
A similar revision has been formed nationwide because companies have overturned DEI’s policies and the Trump administration is working on DEI Initiatives during vacation.
If the Rubin’s biography is a sign of what has been accepted under the vision of Trump to the Federal Government, a specific fact on historical gap is now safe. However, the recognition that these bias lasts seems to be at the intersection.
The U.S. Air Force has even drawn out training videos on black aircraft and private female pilots who worked in World War II. (The Air Force later stated that he would continue to show videos in training, but he stated that specific materials related to diversity would be stopped for reviews.)
One of Rubin’s favorite proverb said, “Half of all brains are in women.” Her book suggests that Rubin challenges gender discrimination language in science publications, women can play the role of leadership in specialized organizations, and women in 1972 are allowed to enter only the backdoor. He says he refused to speak at the event held in.
In the west of the wild voucher expansion, the state depends on unpolished companies, and the results are mixed.
Jacqueline Hewitt, a graduate student when he met Rubin at the meeting, said that he was inspired by Rubin’s research and a method that never had a child. “It was really important to see a successful person,” said Hewit, Professor Julius A. Stratton, a physics of Massachusetts Institute of Technology. “I felt you could succeed.”
Rubin was awarded the National Medal of the National Science in 1993 by President Birkrinton. The observatory is part of Chile, which is ideal for observation astronomy, is named after her in 2019 and contains powerful telescopes. According to the website, “I witnessed the explosion of the stars dying of millions and captures the universe in exquisite details.”
Mitton stated that the astronomical platform is a monument to Rubin, not just astronomical people, but also many people who have gained the opportunity to make their marks historically.
“It’s very sad to be damaged,” she said. “Because work is not over.”
