She was a female scientist from the Qing dynasty. She is good at astronomy and mathematics. She explained lunar eclipses (月食) and wrote The Musts of Calculation (《筹算易知》). A crater on Venus was named after her by the International Astronomical Union. Wang Zhenyi Guessing game Wang Zhenyi (1768–1797) was a female mathematician and an astronomer who lived in the Qing dynasty. She also had a talent for poetry. Wang grew up in a family that valued education. As a child, she learnt mathematics from her father, astronomy from her grandfather and poetry from her grandmother. When she was a teenager, she spent a lot of time studying and building her knowledge in her grandfather’s library. Wang learnt more and more about astronomy and mathematics, even though the language in the science books was very old-fashioned and difficult to understand. This experience made her realize something important: scientific texts need to be written in a clear way so that everyone can understand them. With this in mind, she rewrote the mathematician Mei Wending’s famous book about calculation. At age 24, she created a simpler method of multiplication and division, and wrote a book about it. Wang also studied astronomy on her own. She described lunar and solar eclipses in her works. In old times, people thought eclipses were a sign that heaven was angry with them, but Wang showed that these events were completely natural. She explained it in a simple way so that ordinary people could understand. She set up a model of a lunar eclipse in a garden. It was made up of a round table representing the Earth, a lamp as the Sun, and a round mirror as the Moon. Wang moved the objects around to show what happens during a lunar eclipse: when the Moon passes into the Earth’s shadow, the Moon becomes darker. Her model was clear and simple to understand, even for the youngest people in the audience. In addition to her achievements in mathematics and astronomy, Wang Zhenyi was an excellent poet, and she wrote about unusually modern topics. Wang knew that women are no less intelligent than men, as we can see in this poem: It’s made to believe, Women are the same as Men; Are you not convinced, Daughters can also be heroic? In 1994, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) named a crater on Venus after Wang Zhenyi. Since she achieved so much in her short time on Earth—she died at the age of 29—it is fitting that she is remembered beyond it.
