Rules

1. You may vote up to 4 entries that fit the prompt.
2. No alts.
3. No deleting or editing posts; though, editing posts shortly after you post is fine.
4. If you change your vote, clearly indicate that you are changing a previous vote. Same for adding or subtracting picks.
5. In general, if there are two picks that can be considered the same product (i.e. Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle), I will combine them.
6. If a vote is vague, I will pick the first available choice that best matches the vote (i.e. "Mario" for Wii Games becomes Super Mario Galaxy).
7. I will post the parameters of each Rushmore topic. Other than that, feel free to vote however you like and based on any criteria that best fits the "Mount Rushmore" of that topic.
8. If a vote doesn't fit the topic, it will count as a blank vote.
9. You may nominate as much as you want and have an unlimited amount of seconds for established nominations.
10. Every Sunday, I'll post the schedule for next week. I will pick based on the number of nominations. Any ties will be determined by RNG.

You must pick people who are scientists.

Scientist is defined as "an expert in at least one of the natural or physical sciences, which are biology, physics, astronomy, chemistry, and Earth science."

Living scientists are allowed.

Someone claiming to be on the fringe end of any of the natural or physical sciences are allowed, so long as they are considered an expert among an acceptable amount of peers.

Nominate:
Fictional characters of the 21st century (so far)

Or, if that's too broad...
Fictional characters of the 2020s (so far)

Or, if that's too broad, we could break it into medium (games, film, etc.).

@Johnbobb might be interested in this?

Will the votes for just "Curie" count for Marie Curie? There was more than one famous scientist Curie, after all.

Yes, it will be combined under Marie Curie or whoever the highest-scoring Curie is if theres no clarification.

Einstein

This was my thought coming into the topic and while I did consider replacing Galileo with Darwin, Hawking, or Archimedes while reading through the topic I think I'm gonna stick with my original answer.
