When Henrietta Leavitt begins work at the Harvard Observatory in the early 1920s, she isn't even allowed to touch a telescope. Instead, she works with a group of women, charting the stars for a renowned astronomer who has no time for their probing theories. The true story of the 19th century astronomer who, along with her female peers, eventually changed the way we understand the heavens and Earth.
