When Henrietta Leavitt begins work at the Harvard Observatory in the early 1900s, she joins a group of women "computers," charting the stars for a renowned astronomer. As Henrietta attempts to measure the light and distance of stars, she must also take measure of her life on Earth, trying to balance her dedication to science with family obligations and the possibility of love. Written by Lauren Gunderson. Directed by Haley Hughes. Jan. 17–19 and 24–26 at 7:30 p.m. and Jan. 20 at 2 p.m.
