Pictured: Sophie celebrates being named a state winner at her school.Īs the U.S. Sophie hopes her Doodle will remind people that they are not alone, even in the toughest of times. During the pandemic, when isolation and loneliness started to get to her, Sophie was able to reach out to her mom and receive valuable support, comfort and encouragement.

She was given the highest honour of the American Geophysical Union, the William Bowie medal, in 1971.“I care for myself by accepting others' care for me. By means of this information, she deduced new theories of the inner parts of the Earth,” he said. “With her cardboard cards and her oatmeal boxes, Inge registered the velocity of propagation of the earthquakes to all parts of the globe. Her nephew Niles Groes has described how she had a filing system in which cardboard cards with information about earthquakes around the world were organised into porridge boxes.

Doodler Kevin Laughlin helps us experience the gift Inge illuminated for the world by revealing it as a glowing orb.

Lehmann, who died aged 104 in 1993, studied earthquakes to find that the Earth had both an inner and outer core, a revelation which redefined how the planet was studied.
