Explicație:
Maria Teohari (Giurgiu, Romania, 22 April 1885 - Bucharest, 1975) is credited as the first female astronomer of Romania. She lost part of her eyesight from viewing the Sun through telescopes without adequate eye protection.
Teohari started her formal schooling in Giurgiu but after her father's sudden death from infection, she and her mother assumed responsibility for supporting the family
On the initiative of Professor Nicolae Coculescu, founder of the Bucharest Observatory, Teohari obtained a scholarship for student astronomers. Moving abroad for one year, she began her studies at the Faculty of Sciences with specializations at astronomical observatories in Paris and Nice, (three months at the Paris Observatory and nine months at the Nice Observatory). There, she carried out observations of the Sun, small planets and asteroids.
