Hannie Schaft--the girl with the red hair--one of the most fearless & legendary anti-Nazi resistance fighters of #WWII.

Dutch law student turned saboteur, she smuggled weapons & assassinated collaborators. Captured, she faced the firing squad with defiance. Born #OTD in 1920. #courage #HistSky

A black-and-white photograph of Jannetje Johanna “Hannie” Schaft (16 September 1920 – 17 April 1945), the legendary Dutch resistance fighter known to the Nazis as “the girl with the red hair.” Shown from the shoulders up against a plain, dark studio background, she gazes slightly upward and to the right of the frame with quiet intensity. Her expression is calm yet resolute—lips gently closed, eyes clear and steady—conveying youthful determination and inner strength. She wears a dark, textured knitted sweater with a round neckline, her thick, wavy hair framing her face in soft curls. The tight composition centers entirely on her face and upper torso, creating an intimate, almost contemplative mood that belies the extraordinary courage of the young law student who abandoned her studies to join the Raad van Verzet. She forged identity cards for Jewish families, smuggled weapons and illegal newspapers, and carried out daring assassinations of Nazi officers and Dutch collaborators. Arrested just weeks before liberation, she was executed by firing squad on 17 April 1945 in the dunes near Haarlem. This powerful image stands as an enduring historical symbol of ordinary heroism and defiance against fascism, immortalizing a woman whose short life became a beacon of Dutch resistance.

This thursday it'll be 200 years after Riemann's birth.

The Riemann integral is a way to define what the definite integral of a function is. The area under a curve can be approximated by many small vertical rectangles!

This thursday it'll be 200 years after Riemann's birth.

Riemannian geometry generalised the notions of curvature and distance that Gauss had developed for smooth surfaces to manifolds of arbitrary dimension. This is also the first mention of >4 dimensions*

This thursday it'll be 200 years after Riemann's birth.

Riemann surfaces are 1-dimensional connected complex manifolds, i.e. 2-dim connected real manifolds with holomorphic transition maps. He introduced these to study multivalued functions over C, such as sqrt
