I was inspired to create this puzzle after seeing pictures from the 12A/3D space telescope installation. I’d never heard of 12A before – she was a brilliant astronomer who was also a fierce advocate for women in science. She received many honors during her lifetime, but was snubbed for a Nobel Prize, apparently because of her gender. Maybe she’ll get one posthumously, but at least her name now graces a facility that should continue to expand on her lifelong work helping us better understand the cosmos.
