The Stuff Between the Starsis author Sandra Nickeland illustrator Aimée Sicuro’s inspired biographical picture book about a female astronomer who makes huge discoveries about the mysteries of the night sky and changed the way we look at the universe.
Vera Rubin was one of the astronomers who discovered and named dark matter, the thing that keeps the universe hanging together.
