[Gifset: “This astrophysicist lost her sight, so she learned to listen to the stars, and made a scientific breakthrough. As a kid in Puerto Rico, Wanda Diaz-Merced dreamt of being an astronaut. She earned a doctoral degree in astrophysics. But a long illness left her blind and threatened her studies. Determined not to give up, she realized she could turn data points into sound. Through sonification, Diaz-Merced was able to pursue a career in astrophysics. By listening to the behaviour of stars, she began noticing things no one could see, or hear, before. Diaz-Merced linked star formation to gamma ray bursts - a new idea in astrophysics. Her work has helped astrophysicis consider sound as a new way of analyzing stars.” “If people with disabilities are allowed into the scientific field, an explosion, a huge titanic burst of knowledge will take place.” – Wanda Diaz-Merced]
