- Summary:
- ROSALIND FRANKLIN captured the first-ever image of DNA, but her groundbreaking revelation was not recognized in her lifetime. Her work was shared without her knowledge with Watson & Crick, who went on to win the Nobel Prize for discovering DNA's double helix structure, a shape revealed in Franklin's magnificent X-ray photograph. The controversy of acknowledgement swirls to this day, but ROSALIND may have the last laugh. The UK Mars Rover expedition has named their robot the ROSALIND FRANKLIN. She's going to Mars! LENORA CHAMPAGNE tells of this phenomenal scientist who changed the course of history.
