In this role, Leavitt analyzed the data from the telescopes that she was not allowed to operate. Leavitt studied the variable stars which are starts that vary in brightness overtime. From this work studying variable stars, she deduced that there is a relationship between the star’s period of dimming and the star’s brightness in general. This property can then determine the distance between the earth and the star. Leavitt did suffer from health issues in her life and began to lose her hearing at age 17.

These Cepheids that Leavitt observed were located in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds.
