Our Beloved Mercedes T. Richards was Not an empty symbol. A good role model for our young girls,

Posted by theone on 10/31/2024, 3:53 am

Dr. Mercedes Tharam(photo below) was born in Kingston Jamaica in 1955 and passed away in 2016 in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Discovered her a few days ago through my British-Jamaican chick. This lady studied all over the world, Slovekia, New Jersey, France, Germany, Czech Republic, you name it. So far she's the best Jamaican in my list.

Anyway, Mercedes Tharam was a pioneer in the application of spectroscopic tomography to the study of close stellar binary systems and well-known as an “infectious” educator. She is renowned for her study of stars by examining the unique colours of light they give off. She invented a technique called "astrotomography" to watch how gas flows between stars, similar to how doctors use CT scans to look inside our bodies. Her discoveries gave us a clearer picture of how stars and planets work in space. Fun Fact. Dr.Richard was part of the team who redesignated Pluto a "dwarf planet".

To me personally, Mercedes Tharam Richards is even a better role model for young Black girls than Kamala Harris, yes indeed. May she RIP!!

Great discovery👏👏
Never heard of this talented and ambitious brainiac!

Read up on her while sitting in a Walmart parking lot and she is authentic - no false airs about her!

And gasp, she was married to a black man who is also a legit intellectual in the sciences and a JAHmaican. Gosh👏👏🙌

Now listen here Mr TheOne, next time you write about someone like Mercedes Richards, don't you dare bring up the name Kamala Harris, okaaaaaaay😠😠😠?
