Please note that Emily was a high school student when she wrote her essay, so you don\u2019t have to be an astronomer or astrophysicist to write for TMIAH.   H\u2019ad astra historia is the official podcast for the Historical Astronomy Division of the American Astronomical Society. We\u2019re here to share stories from and about the people who study the stars, planets, and the cosmos. We\u2019ll be hearing from individuals who not only study the history of astronomy, but also those who lived it, who were \u201cin the room\u201d during pivotal events within the last 50 years or so.     Podcast theme music: "Frost Waltz" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), licensed under creative commons: by attribution 4.0 license (http:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/)    Loretta Cannon (an AAS affiliate via Rose City Astronomers) is a science-and-word-nerd who really likes outer space and the people who study it. She quite enjoys working as HAD\u2019s podcaster, sharing astronomy stories to you.   This Month in Astronomical History:   https:\/\/had.aas.org\/resources\/astro-history   Dr. Mugdha Polimera:
