For years, women in astro**my and planetary science have whispered their stories of gendered and racial harassment at the hands of colleagues and students, painting an anecdotal picture of a field that is hostile toward women, particularly women of color.*
Even in the wake of highly publicized incidents (http://mashable.com/2016/01/12/astro**my-professor-***ual-harassment-university-of-arizona/#6dZbCzWjMuqW?utm_campaign=&utm_context=textlink&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=) of discrimination in these fields, the extent of harassment has been unquantified.*
But **w, thanks to newly published research, that picture is becoming clearer, and the findings paint a disturbing picture of experiences women face in planetary science and astro**my.*
