Happy Birthday, Madame Curie!

Marie Curie was born this day in 1867. You might know her as a pioneering chemist and physicist — the first woman in Europe to receive a Ph.D. in physics. She was also the first woman to win a Nobel Prize for her research in radioactivity, and the first person ever to win two Nobels. But have you heard about what she did to help during World War I? Do you know about the salacious gossip she stirred up with her sex life?
