∙ 13y agoMarie Curie was a polish scientist who discovered both radium and polonium. She defined their atomic weight and place on the periodic system, and she was the first to discover methods for extracting pure Radium salts and metal.
She founded radioactivity, used for xrays in the world today. Her research has helped in the study of the cure for cancer.

∙ 12y agoMarie Curie invented a x-ray vehicle that would allow medical field doctors to locate bullets and other things that cause injuries inside wounded people. She did this during World War 1 and that has an impact on us because it is history and therefore it can still be used today in the wars as an tool of equipment to dicover unknown or forgotten bullets inside of soldiers. Her invention has also made life easier. By what her invention was based on, we can use that research and information, and she has contributed us for skin damages and cancer treatments . which have been helping us a lot now and in the future thnxx
