How Many Moon Craters Are Named for Women? Fewer Than Youâd Guess.
By drawing the small number of lunar craters named for women, an artist hopes to highlight womenâs contributions to the sciences.

For too many women interested in pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), itâs still a manâs world. Not only that: itâs also a manâs moon.
Bettina Forget is a Public Scholar and PhD candidate in art education in Concordiaâs Faculty of Fine Arts. She is studying ways in which the arts and sciences can merge to encourage women to enter STEM fields. This includes astronomy, another discipline heavily dominated by men and whose early pioneers had the privilege of naming discoveries after themselves. As a result, says Forget, far more astronomical bodies bear the names of men than women.
