A main thing I would look at is elaborating on exactly what her theory was (don't need to get into the physics of it, but just say its importance and what it did) as well as double checking the fact that Wheeler recruited Way. I believe she called him and got herself a spot in the Manhattan Project. Just some places to start at if looking to imporve/edit this article.Atb105 (talk) 15:18, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
