"My piece of paper finally arrived."
Understanding our complex universe
The Wits University Bachelor of Science Honours in Applied Mathematics and Bachelor of Science Honours in Astrophysics & Space Science alumna could not contain her excitement – which rubbed off on other Twitter users – thanks to the realisation of her dream.
According to the university's website, an Astronomy and Astrophysics qualification charts a clear path for a career in Astrophysics which, in turn, allows one to interpret astronomical data gathered by astronomers to understand how our universe works.
Astronomers view the entire electromagnetic spectrum – called "Multi-Frequency Astronomy" – through optical telescopes, radio telescopes, microwaves, gamma-rays, and X-rays.
The tweet attracted nearly 16 000 likes, almost 900 comments, and 300 comments at the time of publication, as Mzansi's academic success-loving public raised a glass to the boffin.
Inspired to reach for greatness
Briefly News jumped into the comments to bring readers all the reactions to the incredible post.

"This is the final year of my masters as well. I've had many days where I tried to quit because it gets tough and you get brain drain. This is the motivation I needed. Which branch of astronomy were you researching. Maybe you might help me. If you can."

"Now can my cows arrive at your homestead..didn’t wanna disturb you while you were studying."

"Congrats! Be humble and use it wisely. It only serves as a reminder of how much there is still to learn and the difference between having some kind of 'education' and being educated, something a college or university cannot give you."
