The greatest scientific heist in history, illustrated! Watson and Crick reaching out to help Rosalind Franklin, only to snatch her X-ray crystallography data and sprint off to publish the DNA double helix structure first. Franklin's groundbreaking Photo 51 revealed DNA's helical nature, but the boys' club of 1950s science meant her crucial work was used without proper credit. The Nobel Prize committee later ghosted Franklin harder than your ex—she died before they awarded the prize (which can't go to deceased scientists). Scientific collaboration at its finest... if by "collaboration" you mean "yoinking someone else's research and becoming science legends." The double helix of scientific discovery sometimes comes with a double cross!
