My grandma flatted with Beatrice Tinsley at university! Apparently she woke up every morning at like 5am, cooked breakfast, and then started studying. So definitely hard-working as well as a genius.
Thank you for this wonderful story about Beatrice Tinsley. I had the good fortune to meet her at a Symposium she gave at Haverford College in early 1981. I attended with Sarah Lippincott, the Director of Sproul Observatory at nearby Swarthmore College. It seemed just a few weeks later that Sarah told me of Beatrice's death. I remember clearly my shock and sadness. Something about Beatrice touched me and I contribute to the Beatrice Tinsley Prize awarded by the A.A.S. Just 18 months later I traveled through Christchurch on the way to the Antarctic; I didn't realize then the connection Beatrice had with Christchurch.
I'm a Gen X woman in Aotearoa NZ who studied science at least through high school and I'm hearing her for the first time. Disappointed she has not been celebrated. Privileged to hear about her now.
Christine Cole Catley, and her husband Doug Catley (after whom I was named), were very close friends of my parents. When I was a kid, we'd sometimes go and stay with them at Cape Catley in what was then a very remote part of the Marlborough Sounds. So remote that all the houses (none of which could be seen from any of the others) were all on a party line. One of the last in the country. The Catleys were very interesting and awesome people! :) I'm pretty sure my mum has a signed copy of Bright Star.
You made me look up "party line". A shared telephone connection. (So "party" means "group" here.) How nice that you remember these people, thanks for sharing.
@@Jasper_4444 Disappointed the term "party line" doesn't refer to, like, a giant conga line of people between the houses. But that's fine, too, I guess.
Thanks for the interesting video on Beatrice Tinsley. Her name has been mentioned many times in our family. My late father Ian, also a Canterbury graduate, was also a noted NZ astronomer and physicist, and even has a mountain named after him in the same range as Tinsley.
An inspiring story about a remarkable woman - incredibly sad how her life was cut so short. Beautiful scenery throughout the video too. A joy to watch.
Fascinating video Tibees! Yes I'm glad to know Tinsley had to leave her family to study, it shows the focused will-power of this field-changing woman. Love the synchronicities you share with her too, very cool.
Happy to report I found Bright Star at a Devonport second hand bookseller years ago and read about Beatrice then - thanks for making this a little more public - she deserves to be better known!!
What a woman and scientist Beatrice Tinsley was. This was wonderful and I was glad to hear that there are plans to make a film from the biography as that thought crossed my mind, too, after hearing about her remarkable life!
Why aren't there more films highlighting lesser known geniuses? People have no need to insert or create ridiculous drama under the veneer of "artistic license". She had enough drama in her interesting life outside of academic excellence. When people say "we need to highlight female voices", we should be learning about REAL, non fictitious women. There are way too many women who have been overlooked due to the historic inequities in "rockstar" academia.
Nobody else could have honoured Beatrice as beautifully as you have, Tibees. You do great work and I love your channel so much. I hope you continue and I hope it brings you deep joy.
Thank you for this. Your presentation is alluring. I planned to just have a quick look and was happily drawn in for the whole ride. What a remarkable and somewhat melancholic story.
Thanks so much for this! I'm a kiwi scientist from Christchurch who lives on the other side of the world, so this story had a nice connection for me. And tomorrow I'm going back for a visit, and I'll go walking around Tekapo too! You captured the scenery so well!!
Beatrice Muriel Hill Tinsley (27 January 1941 - 23 March 1981) was a British-born New Zealand astronomer and cosmologist, and the first female professor of astronomy at Yale University, whose research made fundamental contributions to the astronomical understanding of how galaxies evolve, grow and die. (Wiki) Beatrice is not mentioned in writing in this video, so you will not find it if you search for her in youtube. as of june 6 2024.
Lovely. Vera’s quote can be rephrased in a larger context: There is no telling how much more we might have learned if we had allowed women to participate fully in all human endeavors.
That's awesome you live in New Zealand Tibees! always thought this was an overseas channel. Calculus lectures at Otago were pretty much incomprehensible when I was there.
Tinsley is remembered by UC alongside other greats associated with the uni (Rutherford, Popper, Erskine etc) by having a building named after her. What an incredible mind. I’ve almost finished my own PhD at UC, and occasionally look to those figures for inspiration to get to the finish line.
In 2022, NZ Post issued a series of stamps called "Women in Science." Beatrice features on the $3.80 stamp. The scientists on the other stamps are botanist Lucy Moore ($1.70), paleontologist Joan Wiffen ($3.00) and ethnographer Makereti Papakura ($4.30).
Thanks for the interesting story about Beatrice's life and the beautiful footage of Tekapo. It'd be interesting to hear more about the research that you and others did/do at the observatory.
Thank you so much for sharing Beatrice Tinsley's story with us! What an amazing story, very much looking forward to the movie that's gonna be made about her!
This great woman of science and their struggles are definitely overlooked and the world should talk and teach more about them as role models for the future generations so thank you
Thank you for introducing me to this remarkable woman. I've wondered where society would be today if woman had been encouraged to participate in the sciences and other disciplines from the early days. How many Beatrices never got to shine at all?
What a brilliant video, a fine tribute to a remarkable life. Years, no decades!, ago I knew vaguely of her work but would not have been able to name her. Then a company I worked for rented some factory space in Beatrice Tinsley Cresent and I wondered who it was named for. Looked that up, made the connection and never forgotten. Several years ago I saw a wonderful performance of the 'Bright Star' stage play in Auckland. It was brilliant and portrayed the personal/career challenges she faced, and you shared. I try and get to the annual 'Beatrice Tinsley Memorial Lectures', most recent in May was Lisa Kaltenegger on exoplanet detection, always interesting. Although I guess the reason for melanoma cannot be certain it struck me that she dedicated her life to stars, but it's likely the emissions from our nearest took hers. What a life, and a loss.
Thank you for this video. I’ll confess that I had never heard of her before and it was very interesting to learn a little about her. I hope the movie does go ahead as these are the sorts of people we should be hearing about. That bit about the husband having to eat out now and again really jarred me as well. Even as you said it, it just felt wrong. It was a very different time and I wonder at what we would have become already had things been different in the earlier stages of science and culture.
Excellent video. I grew up in New Plymouth, where Beatrice's father was Mayor in the 1950's. By the time I studied at Canterbury, we already had the Observatory at Mt. John, where I was observing in August 1968 as the world was going crazy (but before the US Air Force arrived at Mt. John ;-) ). I first met Beatrice at a conference in 1972, when she was still in Dallas after finishing her thesis, and already she was a noted speaker. As the first to systematically study how galaxies change with time, her work was directly relevant to the methods then in use by the likes of Sandage and de Vaucouleurs to measure the Hubble Constant and the expected deceleration of universal expansion (we know how that turned out). My last meeting with her was at Caltech circa 1980, when we knew how desperate her situation was, but she gave an outstanding lecture, emphasising the likely importance of galaxy mergers, a new concept then. Her loss in 1981 was tragic. I wrote to a close family friend who happened to be then the Chair of the New Plymouth High Schools Board, and I believe the Board was one of the early contributors to the AAS Beatrice M. Tinsley Prize Fund. She should be remembered well in New Zealand as a great example for young New Zealanders. This video is a worthy contribution to that effort.
Thank you!! Our little islands in a small corner of the South Pacific have produced some amazing accomplishments. It seems no one has ever told Kiwis that they can't top the world in whatever endeavours they're involved in. So they just go ahead and do it.
Thanks so much alerting me to this amazing person. In the end what a tragic tale and a loss to humanity. I love the symbolism you employed in making her short story, the gradual climb towards the stars - cute! Good luck in your own career! ✨
thank you for sharing this story, even though it's ultimately a sad one. it really doesn't bear thinking about just how much potential has been wasted throughout history through elevating the interests of one gender over the other.
That's the best video I have seen of yours. Thank you so much. There may not be many of her books available, but you are keeping her alive for us with your videos.
Thank you for sharing this awesome story of Beatrice. I am one of those kiwis that had never heard about her before, and wish I had. These are the kind of stories that inspired me growing up
I was thinking to myself, oh another one of those long winded going no where stories but I am happy I carried on watching and listening to your amazing story of one of many unknown Kiwi's who made an amazing contribution to the world. Thank you so much will be checking out more on your page.
Awesome Beatrice Tinsley much respect. I too every since I was a small child have looked up to the stars and wondered. I choose Nuclear Physicis as my field of study but my real love is cosmology. I never heard of Ms Tinsley until today, She is my new hero. I will study her thesis papers and ideas and see how I may apply them to my ideas. Thank you for this video and your work. Keep it up! :)
Thanks Tibees for another trailblazer story, I like history and Biographies about people. and of course kudos to you for the scenic views. what a tough path for Beatrice Hill Tinsley. but she did well for herself and made a difference. Quote "Like wildflowers you must allow yourself to grow in all the places people thought you never would" (Lorde)
Wow, I am so happy I clicked on this video. Thank you for introducing me to this amazing woman. I recently went to a free viewing of a documentary during Matariki named Te Whetu Marama which actually means The Bright Star and it was about Hector Busby who opened a school teaching traditional navigation, that school was named Te Whetu Marama. For a small country we have had some amazing people, I wish I had purpose and drive like that.
I am an 85 year old New Zealander and I learned something new today! I have to admit that I had not heard of Beatrice Tinsley previously although i shall temper that admission by also indicating that I have not been involved or interested greatly in astonomy at all during my life. An excellent account of an amazing woman. Thank you.
Thankyou. Its great to hear about great Kiwis I hope my own daughter is as amazing as you. .. sigjns are she wil be in her own way. .. but no where near as softly spoken.
Great video. Wonderful tribute to an incredible scientist and human. I grew up in Lake Tekapo and on Mt John. My parents are Alan and Pam Gilmore who are retired now but ran the observatory for UC for years. Such a special place.
That is an amazing story. And also, that is an amazing setting. I need that location so I can go hike up that hill under that beautiful sky and that blue ocean. O_O
I had no idea jetlag would end up leading me to an insightful channel! I saw you in the background of scott manley's video of the nasa plasma show-through and i was like OI! That's fucken toby!
Fantastic video. Great to hear about a Kiwi scientist who had this much impact. Frustrating that we all lost 10 years worth of her output, but heartening that she pushed through barriers and had such a rewarding (if brief) career. Nice touch, the quote from Vera Rubin!
Imagine how much more she could have achieved if the realities of being a woman in that era hadn't held her down. Humanity lost years of her short and precious life that, were she not held back, could have been spent advancing our collective understanding of the universe. Thank you for teaching us about her.
I had not previously heard of Beatrice Tinsley, thank you for educating me. Equally tragic and inspirational. Thank you also for adding subtitles to your videos.
I like the way you graciously illuminate forgotten people of distinction. As a humble truck driver, am inspired by people who illuminated my path of breaking the mold. If the glass ceiling is actually does exist, it is simply the gap between one's existence and one aspirations.
My grandma flatted with Beatrice Tinsley at university! Apparently she woke up every morning at like 5am, cooked breakfast, and then started studying. So definitely hard-working as well as a genius.
Do you know how her name was actually pronounced? Was it the 2 syllable Bee-triss as said in this video or the more usual Bee-a-triss?
@@DiscoFangThat's just the kiwi accent.
@@machematixNo it’s not. I’m Kiwi too.
Just astounding. Thx for shinning light on Beatrice and her story. Remarkable.
Thanks
Thank you very much for paying tribute to this great scientist, who deserves far more recognition.

I don't think I've ever heard of this woman, thank you very much for sharing her story! She definitely deserves to be known.
What a bright mind she was. Thank You!

Lovely. Vera’s quote can be rephrased in a larger context: There is no telling how much more we might have learned if we had allowed women to participate fully in all human endeavors.
Or just people in general, irrespective of any other arbitrary characteristic. It's depressing to think about.
Yes, so much potential achievement wasted.
A wonderful story beautifully presented - love the scenery!

Thank you for sharing this wonderfully hard working and tenaious Kiwi scientist. It looks like I need to read / research next a about Kilmartin.
Scientists like Beatrice Tinsley are like the stars among us . Very inspiring . Her mind would allow her to overcome all obstacles in her path .
Thank you for educating us about Beatrice and her work ❤️
Well done, a very professional video. Beautifully shot, beautifully explained. Congratulations and a big thank you.

Just got my art and my book mark for the Patreon support. Thanks Tibee, they're awesome! 😊
What a beautiful tribute. Thank you
I stood up from my desk and applauded.
I don't often do that.
Thank you for cheering on Beatrice! 😊
Thank you for capturing and sharing such a moving and morally-instructive portrait of Beatrice Tinsley's life and work.
A great story and an excellent telling of it. I watched on Nebula last week and was happy to watch again here 😊
Inspiring. Thank you.
