Named For
This badge was named after Hypatia of Alexandria.

''Hypatia was an Alexandrine Neoplatonist philosopher in Egypt who was the first well-documented woman in mathematics. As a Neoplatonist philosopher, she belonged to the mathematical tradition of the Academy of Athens, as represented by Eudoxus of Cnidus; she was of the intellectual school of the 3rd century thinker Plotinus, which encouraged logic and mathematical study in place of empirical enquiery and strongly encouraged law in place of nature.''

Trivia

 * This badge was a black hole badge only for one day, just before the learning dashboard came out. The next day, it was modified into a sun badge. If you were lucky enough to receive it on that one day, you would have gotten a profit of 125,000 energy points.
