Count down to equal opportunity, on this planet and beyond. Lego has introduced a new set of figures that celebrate female space pioneers.
They include Katherine Johnson (the subject of the Hollywood blockbuster, Hidden Figures, and my own upcoming picture book, Counting on Katherine), Mae Jemison, Sally Ride, Nancy Grace Roman and Margaret Hamilton.
It's five small steps for womankind, and a giant leap for all!
Katherine Johnson calculated trajectories to the moon and back for the Apollo program |
Margaret Hamilton wrote the in flight software for Apollo, and was a pioneer in computer science. |
