I want to add a section into this article about what she specifically contributed to science herself. It is overlooked in the entire article.

Her most notable achievement was the completion and publication of the seminal work "Prodromus astronomiae" in 1690, following the death of her husband, Johannes Hevelius. This astronomical catalog meticulously documented the positions and data for 1,564 stars, representing a significant advancement in the field of celestial observation and recording. Her contributions to this project went beyond mere data collection; she actively engaged in the complex calculations and methodology essential to producing such a comprehensive star catalog. These calculations and methods were indicative of the meticulous and systematic approach she brought to her astronomical work, which significantly advanced the field during her time. Koopmann-Hevelius's proficiency in Latin and her correspondence with other scientists of her era further underscore her dedication to and impact on the scientific community.

Peer Review Responses:

I had two people peer review my article. I thought both of them had very helpful things to say about what I need to fine tune and change. I agree with both of them saying my phrasing is slightly biased, but the content isn't. I need to go back in and change my wording in several sentences. I also need to go in and change my citations using the citation tool instead of writing out the citations after each sentence. I also need to organize my addition to the article a little better, I just need to make it clear where I want it added into the original article. I also need to add specific things Elisabeth did within her field of work and study, I summarized a little too much. One of the peer reviews mentioned that if I am more specific within the article that would add a lot of interest, which I agree with fully. I also need to add in the rest of my sources within my references list.
