  She didn't invent radioactivity or any elements.

    She did invent a process to isolate radium. But if you want to put it this way, nobody never invented anything, even a plane is just about manipulating things that always existed in the environment.

      What about all of the inventors of the atom/hydrogen bombs? Feynman?

      Planes did not exist before humans built them. Radium did.
      • boudin 7y ago
        Radium existed but not isolated and not usable for X-Ray for example. Plane was in nature also before humans, just not assembled yet :)

          I don't think we agree on the definition of "plane" :)

    She invented the "X-ray Car" for use in WWI that did, indeed, cause the exposure that led to her death.[1] [1] http://theconversation.com/marie-curie-and-her-x-ray-vehicles-contribution-to-world-war-i-battlefield-medicine-83941 http://theconversation.com/marie-curie-and-her-x-ray-vehicle...
