Astrophysicist Charlotte Moore Sitterly was born #OTD in 1898.
She compiled extensive data on optical and later UV spectra, and her spectroscopic tables are still in use today.

1. Photo portrait of a young Charlotte Moore Sitterly taken some time in 1919, when she was 20 or 21 years old. Her hair is pulled back and she is wearing glasses and a white top with a wide collar. She is looking to the side of the camera. The photo is sepia-toned.
