About This Trend

سيدات القمر (Sayyidat al-Qamar) is a popular Arabic phrase that translates to "Ladies of the Moon." It refers to a group of female astronomers in ancient Mesopotamia who made significant contributions to the field of astronomy.

This trend is currently popular on social media because it highlights the often-overlooked achievements of women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) throughout history. The hashtag is being used to share stories, artwork, and educational content about these pioneering women, sparking important conversations about diversity, inclusion, and representation in STEM fields.
