Radioactive!

how Irene Curie and Lise Meitner revolutionized science and changed the world

In 1934, Irene Curie, working with her husband and fellow physicist, Frederic Joliot, made a discovery that forever altered the world: artificial radioactivity. Four years later, Curie's breakthrough led physicist Lise Meitner to the scientific epiphany that unlocked the secret of nuclear fission. Meitner's unique insight was critical to the revolution in science that led to nuclear energy and the race to build the atomic bomb.
