Marie Curie

Maria Skłodowska-Curie (November 7, 1867 - July 4, 1934) was a Polish physicist and chemist who lived during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. She was the co-discoverer of radiation on Earth.

In 1943, a film entitled Madame Curie was made about in her life in which she was played by the British actress Greer Garson. 

A holographic simulation of Curie was among the historical personality profiles which The Doctor studied in 2373, during his attempt to expand his personality subroutines. 

The 24th century Federation Type-15 shuttlepod Curie and the Type-6 shuttlecraft Curie, both assigned to the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D), were named in her honor. The same was true of the starship USS Curie (Nebula class) and the  starship USS Curie (NCC-81890).
