sondok, a princess from Korea in the 7th century, was interested
in astronomy at a young age. she asked the royal astronomers to
teach her everything they knew about the stars. however, her father
and other court officials believed that women weren't meant to
study the sciences, and forbade her to continue learning astronomy.
sondok ignored her father and ended up correctly predicting a solar
eclipse
