Marie Curies experience

  Marie Curie’s experience

Marie Curie was a Polish girl and half French. She was born in 7th November 1867. Marie Curie was curious to find out what x-rays mean. A few weeks later, her experiments lead her to her theory. She did not mind being the first lady to get a doctor's degree. The atom is the tiniest most basic building block. In the universe, people believed it would be stable and unbreakable but  Marie Curie believed x-rays came from the Uranium atom.

People doubted her because they thought she was wrong.  Marie discovered a radioactive material called radium, she had found a new element! To find radium Marie Curie did the work of scientist and a slave for sometime. She was curious  this. She would gather wood for an outside fire, then put a giant pot on top. She would treat each ton of rock with a bucket of water, 5 or 6 tons of burning acid, Then she would stir it with a big metal spoon and the mixture itself burnt  Marie Curie with lightning then she decided to mix it inside the fumes got tense, but she did not give up.

After her graduation Marie curie got a husband named Pierre and  he was Marie’s assistant. He also discovered that x-rays are stronger than Atom amanaim. Marie curie was the first ever lady to get her doctors degree. She was humble and a true role model she pursued her dreams, until she died.
