That's wonderful. Her story actually has similarities to my own!

That is scary smart! Thanks for posting.

I read an interview with her in an aerospace engineering magazine (SAE's Aerospace Engineering and Defense Technology) published before she entered the monastery - her actual goal is to build engines big enough and bad enough to launch a rocket all the way to heaven, to definitively prove that there IS a God.

The last lady I dated was only a year away from receiving her PhD in physics (she even worked for a while at CERN on the Large Hadron Collider project) when she decided to enter religious life.
