It has no place in London or anywhere else in the world.

Chien-Shiung Wu shattered one of physics' core assumptions. βš›οΈ

In 1957, she proved that nature does distinguish between left & right in weak interactions.

Before her, physicists thought mirrors didn't matter in fundamental laws.

She flipped that on its head.πŸ§ͺ
