If you don’t know who Marie Curie is, I’ll tell you what you should know about her. She is a scientist who discovered radium in X-rays.

Marie went to the University of Paris and studied Science. When she was there she didn’t speak French well but she caught up.
When Marie graduated she got married, her husband’s name is Pierre, Pierre and her discovered radium. They made something 100X stronger than uranium that can go through metal. After a few years, Pierre died by radium because radium can cure and harm.
