Until 1948, women were not allowed to pursue scientific degrees in UK ! Hence; Cecilia Payne ( a brilliant woman ) realized that her only career option in the UK was to become a teacher, so she left England in 1923 to USA where she came up with theories that changed the history of Astronomy forever ! Note : Her professor refused her Ph.D. theory when he first read it, then discovered she was right 4 years later after deriving the same results by different means ! Moral if the story: 1- Travel the world to pursue your dreams. 2- Men can be real arrogant idiots sometimes, says history !
