"Hidden Figures" erzählt die Geschichte von drei Schwarzen Mathematikerinnen, die für die NASA jahrelang die Berechnungen der Flugbahnen von Raketen und Raumkapseln übernommen und geprüft haben – zunächst ohne öffentliche Anerkennung trotz ihrer immensen Bedeutung für die amerikanische Raumfahrt. Gemeinsam mit Wissenschaftsjournalistin Marie Eickhoff vom "Behind Science"-Podcast prüfen wir, wie nah der Film an den historischen Ereignissen dran ist und welche Rolle Diskriminierung aufgrund von Hautfarbe und Geschlecht noch immer spielt.
Send us a textEpisode Summary:In this episode, we take a closer look at a lesser-known aspect of Dorothy Vaughan's life—her habit of eating last after her children. This simple yet powerful act was shaped by her experience growing up during the Great Depression, where food scarcity was a reality for many families. We discuss how this mindset of sacrifice, resilience, and putting others first carried through her life and career, influencing her leadership and mentorship at NASA.Topics Covered:✅ The impact of the Great Depression on Dorothy Vaughan's upbringing✅ The significance of eating last and what it symbolized✅ How this mindset carried into her work and leadership at NASA✅ Her dedication to lifting others up in the face of adversityKey Quotes:

The United States Congress has honored four women known as the “hidden figures” of the space race with its highest civilian award. 美国国会向四位被称为太空竞赛“隐藏人物”的女性颁发了最高平民奖。 The Congressional Gold Medal was presented Wednesday to the families of Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson and Christine Darden at the U.S. Capitol. Only Darden is still living. The 82-year-old watched the ceremony from her Connecticut home. 周三，国会金质奖章在美国国会大厦颁发给了凯瑟琳·约翰逊、多萝西·沃恩、玛丽·杰克逊和克里斯汀·达登的家人。只有达顿还活着。这位 82 岁的老人在康涅狄格州的家中观看了仪式。Lawmakers recognized the four Black mathematicians for their critical work early in the space program. 立法者认可了四位黑人数学家在太空计划早期所做的关键工作。 They also presented a medal to all the women who worked as mathematicians, engineers and "human computers" in the American space program from the 1930s to 1970s. 他们还向 20 世纪 30 年代至 1970 年代在美国太空计划中担任数学家、工程师和“人类计算机”的所有女性颁发了一枚奖章。 Margot Lee Shetterly wrote the 2016 book Hidden Figures about the Black women mathematicians who supported the space program in the 1960s. It was made into a movie of the same name in 2017. 玛格特·李·谢特利 (Margot Lee Shetterly) 于 2016 年撰写了《隐藏人物》一书，讲述了 20 世纪 60 年代支持太空计划的黑人女数学家的故事。2017年被拍成同名电影。 "By honoring them, we honor the very best of our country's spirit," Shetterly said at the ceremony. 谢特利在仪式上说：“通过向他们致敬，我们就是向我们国家最优秀的精神致敬。”The early space program employed hundreds of women to work as mathematicians at what is now NASA's Langley Research Center in Virginia. But, the Black mathematicians were not permitted to work with the white mathematicians because of racial separation policies at the time. The Black researchers' work went unrecognized for years. 早期的太空计划雇用了数百名女性在现在的弗吉尼亚州美国宇航局兰利研究中心担任数学家。但是，由于当时的种族隔离政策，黑人数学家不被允许与白人数学家一起工作。黑人研究人员的工作多年来一直没有得到认可。 The team used pencils, slide rulers and mechanical calculating machines to calculate the paths of rockets and orbiters in the atmosphere and in space. The path is called the trajectory. 该团队使用铅笔、滑尺和机械计算机来计算火箭和轨道飞行器在大气层和太空中的路径。该路径称为轨迹。 “Our office computed all the trajectories,” Katherine Johnson told The Virginian-Pilot newspaper in 2012. “You tell me when and where you want it to come down, and I will tell you where and when and how to launch it,” she explained. “我们的办公室计算了所有的轨迹，”凯瑟琳·约翰逊在 2012 年告诉《弗吉尼亚飞行员报》。“你告诉我你希望它在何时何地降落，我会告诉你在哪里、何时以及如何发射它，”她 解释道。In 1961, Johnson did trajectory research for the Freedom 7 Mission, the first to carry an American into space. The next year, she checked the calculations made by a new NASA computer for astronaut John Glenn's planned orbits around the planet. 1961 年，约翰逊为自由 7 号任务进行了轨迹研究，这是第一次将美国人送入太空。第二年，她检查了美国宇航局一台新计算机对宇航员约翰·格伦计划绕地球轨道进行的计算。 John Glenn did not trust the new computer. Days before the launch, he told NASA, “Get the girl to check the numbers.” John Glenn become the first American to orbit the Earth in 1962. 约翰·格伦不信任这台新计算机。发射前几天，他告诉美国宇航局，“让女孩检查一下数字。” 1962 年，约翰·格伦 (John Glenn) 成为第一个绕地球轨道飞行的美国人。 Johnson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2015 – the nation's highest civilian honor. Her work at NASA helped open doors for many other women to take part in the space program. 约翰逊于 2015 年被授予总统自由勋章——美国公民的最高荣誉。她在美国宇航局的工作为许多其他女性参与太空计划打开了大门。 Dorothy Vaughan rose to become NASA's first Black female supervisor. Mary Jackson was NASA's first Black female engineer. And Christine Darden is best known for her sonic boom research. 多萝西·沃恩 (Dorothy Vaughan) 成为美国宇航局第一位黑人女主管。玛丽·杰克逊是美国宇航局第一位黑人女工程师。克里斯汀·达顿 (Christine Darden) 因其音爆研究而闻名。
Katherine Johnson, mathématicienne afro-américaine, a joué un rôle crucial dans la conquête spatiale américaine. Le 20 février 1962, lors de la mission Friendship 7, l'astronaute John Glenn exige que Johnson vérifie manuellement les calculs des ordinateurs pour sa trajectoire en orbite. Cette confiance absolue témoigne de son extraordinaire talent. Née en 1918, elle démontre des capacités exceptionnelles en mathématiques dès son enfance, malgré les obstacles de la ségrégation raciale. Elle surmonte ces défis et rejoint la NASA en 1953. Son expertise aide non seulement à la réussite de la mission de John Glenn mais aussi à celle de la mission Apollo 11 qui a permis le premier alunissage. En plus de ses contributions scientifiques, Johnson et ses collègues, Dorothy Vaughan et Mary Jackson, ont été des pionnières dans la lutte pour les droits civiques. En 2015, Johnson reçoit la médaille présidentielle de la Liberté pour ses contributions révolutionnaires. Son héritage continue d'inspirer les jeunes filles à poursuivre des carrières dans les STEM.

Margot Lee Shetterly is a non-fiction writer. Her book, Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Who Helped Win the Space Race, tells the story of African-American women mathematicians who helped provide NASA with the raw computing power it needed to dominate the heavens. After a career in investment banking and media, Margot moved to Mexico with her husband and founded Inside Mexico, an English-language magazine, while writing Hidden Figures. In addition to her work as an author, Margot is the founder of The Human Computer Project, an endeavor dedicated to recovering the names and accomplishments of all of the women who worked as computers, mathematicians, scientists and engineers at NACA and NASA from the 1930s through the 1980s.Today, you'll hear about Margot's journey in writing Hidden Figures. She describes her childhood in Hampton, Virginia, growing up surrounded by engineers and scientists and shares her experience witnessing the 9/11 attacks while living in New York City. She explains how she happened upon the book idea and how her awareness of the women in Hidden Figures—Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson—came to the fore. She discusses the importance of having an objective view from the outside and how living in Mexico allowed her to write Hidden Figures. You'll also gain insight on Margot's experiences writing Hidden Figures—from interviewing Katherine Johnson to getting the book published—and hear her advice for young people at the early stages of their careers.“The advances that allow us to get on an airplane—without thinking that it'll take off, fly, and land safely—happened because these women and their colleagues were doing the numbers for decades.” - Margot Lee ShetterlyThis week on Kathy Sullivan Explores: • Margot's background and life growing up in Hampton, Virginia • Her interest in business at a young age and path to investment banking • A brief history of NASA • Margot's interest in business at a young age and her path to investment banking • Her life in New York and her experience in foreign exchange trading, Meryll Lynch, and start-ups • Her adventures founding a magazine in Mexico with her husband • How living in Mexico allowed Margot the space to write Hidden Figures • What inspired the idea behind Hidden Figures and how Margot began writing the story • How interviewing mathematician Katherine Johnson led Margot to Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, and the other Black computers at NASA's West Area • How long it took Margot to finish writing Hidden Figures • The two kinds of writers and why Margot is a combination of both • Historical accuracy of the film Hidden Figures and how similar it is to Margot's book • The process of creating a book proposal and why it's similar to forming a business plan • What Margot wanted to show through her book Hidden Figures • Margot's favorite travel destinations and travel bucket list • Her current book project and the joys of writing Hidden FiguresResources Mentioned: • NASA Johnson Space Center Oral History Project • NASA History Division - Oral History • Book: They Made America: From the Steam Engine to the Search Engine: Two Centuries of Innovators by Harold EvansOur Favorite Quotes: • “The thing about a book proposal is that it's a business plan.

More than half a century after NASA launched astronauts into space, you'd think all the stories about these groundbreaking missions had been told.But they hadn't.Margot Lee Shetterly's father worked at NASA, and the stories of the women of NASA were commonplace among the local community, but the world was yet to know the incredible true story of the African-American female mathematicians, and how integral their work was to the space race.Lee Shetterly's book, Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Who Helped Win the Space Race, was optioned for a film even before she finished writing it, and told the stories of four African-American women. Katherine Johnson (1918-2020)Dorothy Vaughan (1910-2008)Mary Jackson (1921-2005)Christine Darden (1942- )While only three of those women's experiences made it into the movie, the story (while containing a few embellishments) is a remarkable one of hard work, grit and determination, set against the backdrop of racially and gender segregated America.I would love to hear your thoughts on Hidden Figures !CONTACT....

Concorrente ao Oscar de 2017, o filme narra a incrível história das mulheres negras que trabalharam na NASA e revolucionaram o meio científico na década de 1960, em meio à Guerra Fria e em pleno período de ebulição das lutas pelos Direitos Civis nos EUA. O drama se centra na trajetória de transformação e inovação de três destas cientistas negras, que enfrentando as barreiras do preconceito racial e do machismo, ajudaram os Estados Unidos a levar um norte-americano para o espaço. Conhecidas como “computadores humanos”, Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan e Mary Jackson foram as responsáveis pelos cálculos que levaram o astronauta John Glenn a orbitar em redor da Terra, em 1962. A contribuição de cada uma delas foi fundamental na corrida espacial americana. O filme ainda mostra como essas mulheres deram um salto enorme na luta pela igualdade de gênero e nos faz perceber que todos os dias também nós precisamos fazer a diferença em nosso ambiente de trabalho. A história quase desconhecida das mulheres negras que trabalhavam na NASA e revolucionaram seu ambiente de trabalho virou filme e chegou a concorrer ao Oscar em 2017. Apesar de não ter levado nenhuma estatueta, a trama foi amplamente aplaudida e exaltada pela crítica e pelo público. O drama conta a trajetória de transformação e inovação de três negras que, na época da guerra fria, ajudaram os Estados Unidos a levar o homem para o espaço. O tema central do filme traz a quebra de barreiras que elas enfrentaram bravamente contra o machismo e o preconceito racial daquela época, na década de 1960. Conhecidas como “computadores humanos”, Dorothy Vaughan (primeira mulher negra supervisora de departamento na Nasa e precursora no uso da computação), Katherine Johnson (excelência na arte de fazer cálculos manuais) e Mary Jackson (primeira mulher negra a cursar pós-graduação na Universidade da Virgínia e primeira engenheira mulher da Nasa), foram as responsáveis pelos cálculos que levaram o astronauta John Glenn a orbitar em redor da Terra, em 1962. A contribuição de cada uma delas foi fundamental na corrida espacial norte-americana. É impossível assistir ao filme e não admirar a garra e a força de vontade dessas mulheres em vencer os desafios que encontravam todos os dias no trabalho, como a segregação racial expressa, até em banheiros separados, a desconfiança profissional dos colegas homens e o machismo autoritário dos chefes. E mais: CURTAS | com notícias sobre o mundo da sétima arte. DICAS | comn5 indicações de filmes sobre mulheres negras importantes na História.

It’s important to recover the names of women whom history might neglect—think about the power of the research that led us to name the heroes of Hidden Figures fame: Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson. Look to the stories of women in the Bible, both named and unnamed, who broke barriers and lifted others up.It’s also important for us to know that these were real women—not paragons. Some of the highly lauded women’s suffrage leaders used racist tropes in their advocacy, and many did not press forward after the adoption of the 19th Amendment to work for effective access to the vote for women of color or for poor women. This makes it all the more important for us to stand against voter suppression today and to be willing to examine who is excluded and who might be harmed if we are not alert.So, let’s celebrate. Let’s remove curtains of race or gender that hide accomplishments of our foremothers. Let’s learn from them and from the people around them about breaking barriers so that women and girls have freedom to flourish and to follow God’s call. And let’s lift up our sisters, showing leadership and giftedness at every age and all over our organization and our communities. ---This episode originally appeared in the March/April 2021 issue of response, the award winning magazine from United Methodist Women.Visit www.UnitedMethodistWomen.org to find out more.
Dorothy Vaughan by High, I'm Drunk Podcast
Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Who Helped Win the Space Race is a 2016 nonfiction book written by Margot Lee Shetterly. Shetterly started working on the book in 2010. The book takes place from the 1930s through the 1960s when some viewed women as inferior to men. The biographical text follows the lives of Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson, three mathematicians who worked as computers (then a job description) at NASA, during the space race. They overcame discrimination there, as women and as African Americans. Also featured is Christine Darden, who was the first African-American woman to be promoted into the Senior Executive Service for her work in researching supersonic flight and sonic booms.
This week is March 8th, International Women's Day. So we thought we'd dedicate a special episode to the little girls working or interested in science. For the occasion, we will hear a cute video from Dorothy Vaughan who is a revolutionary in her field and who did a lot for NASA. Afterwards, Debi Derryberry who voiced Jimmy Neutron in The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius is with us and shares a story she wrote herself. Jaeda teaches you about DNA by reading a story. Have a goodnight and to all the little girls listening to us tonight, don't forget: Believe in yourself and dream big!

You already know who it is but for a long time the names Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson didn’t mean much to the cinematic world until in 2016 we were graced with Hidden Figures. This movie is exactly what you need from start to finish. Prior to discussing Hidden Figures, Staxxx and Puffy talk about the upcoming NBA All Star weekend and Zion not being in the dunk contest...... maybe he is only Point Zion from here on out!!!!

Welcome to Black Brilliance On The B-Side Podcast! In this episode, we’re focused on bringing our audience Black Brilliance from the Past. Dorothy Vaughan was a Brilliant Teacher, Scientist, Mathematician and Human Computer that you must know more about. “I changed what I could and what I couldn’t I endured.” – Dorothy Vaughan After listening...
Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, Katherine Johnson, and Christine Darden were good at math, really good. They participated in some of NASA's greatest successes, like providing the calculations for America's first journeys into space. And they did so during a time when being black and a woman limited what they could do. But they worked hard. They persisted. And they used their genius minds to change the world.In this beautifully illustrated picture book edition, we explore the story of four female African American mathematicians at NASA, known as "colored computers," and how they overcame gender and racial barriers to succeed in a highly challenging STEM-based career."Finally, the extraordinary lives of four African American women who helped NASA put the first men in space is available for picture book readers," proclaims Brightly in their article "18 Must-Read Picture Books of 2018." "Will inspire girls and boys alike to love math, believe in themselves, and reach for the stars."Book By: Margot Lee ShetterlyRead By: Erin YeschinPURCHASE BOOK HERE -> https://bookshop.org/a/18361/9780062742469Check out our #OneStopBookShop to find new titles based on diversity, inclusion, emotional intelligence and growth mindset HERE -> https://bookshop.org/shop/HippocampusClubhouse
The movie “Hidden Figures” tells the true story of three black women trying to pursue their calling during a time of segregation. Mary Jackson started at NASA in a segregated position with her new friends Dorothy Vaughan and Katherine Johnson. Eventually, Mary’s supervisor encouraged her to get an engineering degree. Unfortunately, due to segregation she [...]
O episódio de hoje tem como pauta o filme “Estrelas Além do Tempo”, que conta a história de três figuras importantes: Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan e Mary Jackson, mostrando as conquistas que elas alcançaram, mas também os obstáculos que enfrentaram por conta de discriminações em função do gênero e raça. Acompanhe agora as nossas impressões sobre o filme e as reflexões que ele deixou!
¿Cuántas niñas y niños sueñan con ser astronautas? La verdad es que la mayoría son varones aunque en los últimos se ha incrementado el número de niñas, se me hace que es porque tienen sus ejemplos, como Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan y Mary Jackson. Las figuras ocultas que hicieron posible la carrera espacial de los Estados Unidos, pero mejor que seguir contándote, escúchate esta cápsula en la que hablamos un poco de ellas.
Cet épisode sera consacré à l'histoire de ces trois femmes afro-américaines, Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan et Mary Jackson qui ont contribué aux programmes spatiaux et aéronautiques de la NASA, en pleine période de ségrégation américaine. Le film rejoint alors les vies de ces trois femmes avec un portrait croisé intelligemment amené, à l'histoire de la conquête spatiale américaine, le contexte politique de la guerre froide, la lutte contre les préjugés en parallèle de l'abolition des lois ségrégationnistes aux Etats-Unis.

La storia è vera ed è quella della matematica afroamericana Katherine Johnson e delle sue colleghe, Dorothy Vaughan, supervisore non ufficiale, e Mary Jackson, aspirante ingegnere, che alla Nasa dagli anni 60 contribuirono a calcolare le traiettorie dei voli spaziali e a smantellare uno status quo fatto di segregazione raziale e discriminazione di genere. I modi sono quelli del regista Theodore Melfi, capace di trasformare il bestseller di Margot Lee Shetterly in un film da Oscar – con qualche libera concessione. Anche di queste ultime Guida galattica per gli audiostoppisti parla con Francesca Baraghini, premio “Telegiornalista del 2018”, volto di Sky Tg24 e del Tg8 .
You can almost time it. When a hometown kid arrives, the “we knew her when” pieces aren’t far behind. Shortly after The Help made Octavia Spencer famous, The Birmingham News interviewed Jefferson Davis High School guidance counselor Mrs. Evelyn Moore. “Whatever she did, she did it well and she was never shy. You knew she just had it…there was something about Octavia that stood out and everyone knew she would be something.” Evelyn Moore knew it. The Help writer/director Tate Taylor knew it. What took the rest of us so long? Octavia Spencer graduated ol’ Jefferson Davis in 1988. She was one of seven kids raised by her mom Dellsena Spencer, who worked as a maid and died when Spencer was a teenager. She went on to Auburn University, where you might be surprised to learn she did not study to become an RN, considering it’s a job she’s done between 30 and 40 times on screen, along with an almost equal number of largely nameless cashiers and security guards. Spencer actually majored in English with a double minor in journalism and theater, and the role she originally planned for herself was behind the camera. She worked in casting on a number of local Alabama productions and finally asked to audition for the role of a political agitator in Joel Schumacher’s A Time to Kill. “Joel said, ‘No honey, your face is too sweet. You can be Sandy [Bullock]’s nurse,’” Spencer recalls. Well, there you have it. Her friend and fellow Southerner Tate Taylor encouraged her to move to L.A. in 1997 to pursue acting, and she quickly dotted scores of movies and TV shows, most often in the aforementioned capacities. As briefly or namelessly as she might have appeared, she grabbed us every time. Her face is sweet, but we learned it could morph in a moment to comic wide-eyed disbelief, steely don’t-screw-with-me resolve, wry skepticism, or genuine warmth – making her one of the best reactors in the business. Her roles in Big Momma's House, Miss Congeniality 2, Beauty Shop, Moesha, Chicago Hope, and Ugly Betty, (to name 6 out of nearly 100), were often cited as one of their bright spots, and Entertainment Weekly named her one of Hollywood’s 25 funniest women. Yet after 15 years, most of us still knew her as, “Oh yeah, that funny, sassy black lady.” Then came her appearance as the funny, sassy maid Minny Jackson in The Help, a role that was hers before the screenplay was ever written. When the author of the novel it was based on was having difficulty finding the character’s voice, she called her friend Octavia for help. When Spencer finally embodied Minny on the screen, The Hollywood Reporter wrote, “Spencer’s scrappy Minny Jackson provides not only comic relief but a feistiness that shows that some maids found the gumption and means to get back at overbearing employers. Hers is a great character, the antithesis of Gone With the Wind’s Mammy, and she nearly upends this movie with her righteous sass.” You know the story from there. More raves, wide recognition and an Oscar ensued, and voilà! – no more nurse roles. No, now she was being offered maids. And the offers were substantial, but Spencer knew she had to start saying no to stereotypes to continue growing as an artist, and that she’d need to step outside the studios to show what she could do. She appeared in “Smashed,” James Ponsoldt’s 2012 rumination on alcoholism, and NPR called out her bitingly emotional performance as the mother of Oscar Grant, the young black man shot by a white Oakland transit officer in Fruitvale Station. Then came the dystopian sci-fi Snowpiercer and 2015’s Black or White, in which Spencer starred opposite Kevin Costner, playing Rowna Jeffers, the protective grandmother of a biracial girl. “Ms. Spencer turns the strict, truth-telling Rowena into a mighty force,” said The New York Times. “Her wide-eyed stare gives her the gravity of an all-seeing sage who doesn’t miss a trick and is not afraid to speak her mind. Rowena may be a clichéd Earth Mother, but Ms. Spencer imbues her with a fierce severity.” She stepped back into studio films in a big, Oscar-nominated way with Hidden Figures, playing mathematician Dorothy Vaughan. Despite her reluctance to do period films (no “period” to date having been particularly uplifting to the African- American experience), her anger made her unable to resist. She thought a story about black women working for NASA in the ’60s had to be fiction. No – it was just one of many real stories that never get told. Despite the range of roles she’s being offered now, Spencer’s joked that she’s yet to play anyone remotely like herself, a single, rom-com lovin’ kinda lady. But she sees one that very much fits the bill. At this year’s Makers conference she told Gloria Steinem “The role I'm destined to play is to be one of the greatest producers in Hollywood. It's a huge undertaking, but I want to be a conduit for storytellers." She’s already put her money where her mouth is. She became a producer on Fruitvale Station to help with its financing, and continues to support minority directors and young actors. She’s currently producing a biopic series of Madame C.J. Walker, the first self-made African American female millionaire. Where she is not putting her money is homogeneity. “If I look down a list of characters on a film, and it doesn’t have gay, African-American or Latino characters, I’m probably not going to spend my money on the ticket,” she told Deadline. “When we stop supporting things with our dollars that don’t represent all of us, then you’ll see an explosion of diversity. Art is about reaching people that you wouldn’t normally reach. It’s about bringing us together.” Spencer determined long ago that BMWs and five-closet wardrobes weren’t going to determine when she arrived. It would be when she was steering the ship. But maybe the best measure of success is what you do with your ship when it comes in. “After Hidden Figures, I don’t have a problem saying to a room of male executives: ‘I need a female writer or a female director,’ or ‘I need a black voice or a Latin voice. I don’t feel bad about that.” To some, that might sound like sass. To us, it sounds like a boss.

Éste es el episodio 117 de 3 Cosas Que Ayer No Sabía, el del lunes 24 de febrero de 2020. 01. Lorem Ipsum Pues en el blog Cooking Ideas le han dedicado un post a la curiosa historia del texto “Lorem Ipsum”. Parece ser que sus frases están sacadas de la obra “De finibus bonorum et malorum”, un tratado escrito por Cicerón en el año 45 antes de nuestra era. Lo recooció un profesor de Latín de Hampden-Sidney College de Virginia llamado Richard McClintock. No fue fácil porque en el texto de Cicerón la palabra es Dolorem y no Lorem. Además, el resto del texto está desordenado. Parece ser que su origen pudo estar en la Edad Media cuando algún impresor necesitó un texto de muestra, cogió el de Cicerón y lo mezcló. Resultando el texto que hoy usamos. Puedes leer el post completo aquí: https://www.cookingideas.es/historia-lorem-ipsum-20200221.html 02. Katherine Johnson Hoy ha fallecido Katherine Jones una matemática cuyo trabajo en la NASA fue crucial para que la humanidad llegara a la Luna. Como mujer y afroamericana, Jones no lo tuvo nada fácil. Desde pequeña destacó en matemáticas y nada más titularse comenzó a trabajar como profesora. Pero continuó formándose, realizó estudios de postgrado y se presentó a uno de los puestos que la NASA ofreció en el año 1952 a matemáticos. Entre sus logros destaca el cálculo de la trayectoria del primer vuelo espacial tripulado de la NASA, así como el que realizó el Apolo 11 hasta llegar a la luna. Su historia y la de sus compañeras Dorothy Vaughan y Mary Jackson fue llevada al cine en la película “Figuras Ocultas”.

Fifty years ago this summer—1969 to be exact—the space race pitting the United States against the Soviet Union was reaching the proverbial finish line. The only question that remained was: Who would land on the Moon first? During our special Summer Series, we will explore the history behind the contributions made by Americans—and more specifically, Missourians—to not only explore the far reaches of space, but also to land a person on the Moon. This episode focuses on an astronomer—Edwin Hubble—and a mathematician—Dorothy Vaughan—who grew up in Missouri, but later achieved international acclaim in their respective fields.

Octavia Spencer, Academy Award winner, shares her journey from a small town in Alabama to a huge career in Hollywood. Raised by a single mom and one of 7 children, hers is a story of perseverance and passion. One of Hollywood’s most sought-after talents, Octavia Spencer has become a familiar fixture on both television and the silver screen. Her critically acclaimed performance as Minny in 2011’s The Help won her the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award, BAFTA Award, and Golden Globe Award, among numerous other accolades. Throughout the past year she has taken on many different characters, such as Johanna in Allegiant and Miss Harris in The Great Gilly Hopkins, as well as lending her voice to the character of Mrs. Otterton in Zootopia. Octavia can be seen in the critically acclaimed Hidden Figures, a drama that follows the true story of three African American women who were instrumental to NASA catching up in the Space Race. Octavia’s performance as Dorothy Vaughan has earned her SAG, Golden Globe, NAACP Image Award, and Academy Award nominations to date. Spencer also stars in The Shack and Gifted.
INTERVIEW OPPORTUNITY THURSDAY, MARCH 16th HIDDEN FIGURES The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race BY MARGOT LEE SHETTERLY Imagine the first scientists and engineers trying to send rockets—and eventually people—into space. With no electronic computers, they relied on an elite group of mathematicians capable of doing the most challenging calculations by hand, calculations that would launch men into space and forever expand our knowledge of the universe. Among these “human computers” were the black women whose genius for numbers made space exploration and travel possible. They’re finally introduced to America in Margot Lee Shetterly’s HIDDEN FIGURES: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race. Now available in paperback, the book was an instant New York Timesbestseller upon its release in September 2016. It’s no surprise that this story was adapted for film even before the book was finished. It’s the inspiring yet largely unknown true story of the African-American female mathematicians at NASA whose work that helped fuel some of America’s greatest achievements in space. Ironically, Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, Katherine Johnson, and Christine Darden were responsible for some of NASA’s greatest successes at a time when Jim Crow laws ensured NASA remained segregated. HIDDEN FIGURES is a story that combines the rich intersection of the civil rights era, the Space Race, the Cold War, and the movement for gender equality. Margot Lee Shetterly is the perfect person to write it. A journalist and independent researcher, she is also the daughter of one of NASA’s first black engineers. Her insider’s knowledge, direct access to NASA executives and the women featured in the book lend it a depth and perspective that goes beyond mere research. HIDDEN FIGURES draws on extensive research, oral histories, personal recollections, interviews, and articles from the era to create an incredible picture of never-before-seen history. Now available in trade paperback and soon to be a major motion picture from 20th Century Fox starring Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, Kirsten Dunst, and Kevin Costner, with a soundtrack by Pharrell ABOUT THE AUTHOR: MARGOT LEE SHETTERLY is a writer who grew up in Hampton, Virginia, where she knew many of the women in Hidden Figures. She is an Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Fellow and the recipient of a Virginia Foundation of the Humanities grant for her research into the history of women in computing. She lives in Charlottesville, VA. DreamsTimes
