Discover how astronomer Vera Rubin's persistence led to the groundbreaking discovery of dark matter, a concept now fundamental to understanding our universe. Despite initial dismissal and facing barriers as a woman in science, Rubin's work revealed that astronomical objects exaggerate gravity's grip, earning her the National Medal of Science and posthumous honors like the Vera C. Rubin Observatory.
