Curie was the first woman ever to win the coveted Nobel Prize. She was also the first person to win it twice and in two different sciences. Curie was known for her work on radioactivity. She died a hero at the age of 66 after suffering from aplastic anemia due to exposure to radiation while working at field hospitals during World War I. Her remains were transferred to the Panthéon in Paris in 1995, where she held the record of being the first woman entombed there on her own merits.
Meanwhile, season 2 is also expected to provide more background on Emma's (Annie Wersching) storyline. After working alongside Flynn as his trusted partner, it was revealed that she was a spy. Emma is part of Rittenhouse and she helped her organization arrest Flynn and steal the time machine. In the new storyline, she and Carol (Susanna Thompson) will go on an important mission to save an American soldier named Nicholas Keynes (to be played by Michael Rady) during the World War I.
"Timeless" season 2 will air on Sunday, March 11, at 10 p.m. EST on NBC.
