Katherine Johnson checked John Glenn's flight path by hand. He would not fly until she signed off. That is real power.

With #ArtemisII flying to the moon, based on a lot of cool #math, it is time to revisit the abilities and genius of #KatherineJohnson and the implementation of #EulersMethod.

It was as a result of Katherine Johnson's team and her perseverance, we went from computers being people to computers as machine. AND Ms Johnson turned her team into computer programmers. #HiddenFigures

Here is a lovely video describing that a-ha moment. She is probably smiling somewhere right now.

Argumento y comentario: Basada en hechos reales, narra la historia de tres brillantes matemáticas afroamericanas (Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan y Mary Jackson) que trabajaron en la NASA a principios de los años 60. Mientras el país lucha por ganar la carrera espacial, ellas deben enfrentar la segregación racial y el sexismo sistémico para demostrar que su intelecto es la clave para poner al astronauta John Glenn en órbita. Es una obra inspiradora que equilibra el rigor histórico con un tono optimista y actuaciones estelares.
