Mrs. Johnson‘s scientific contributions to the success of NASA was immeasurable! She lived a long and productive life as a scientist, though seeking attention and applause for it was secondary to the actual love for her role in it and her dedication to NASA. A true hero who lived to be 101.

The graphic novel of Hilma of Klint is wonderful!
#WomenInScience "At no moment in history has a bright young girl with plenty of food and a good constitution perished from too much learning." Inspired by 19th c. journals from women studying evolution & botany, Gilbert creates Alma Wittaker, whose journey both spiritual & physical, leads to unique discoveries about mosses in Tahiti. Yes, EG makes this informative, exciting, & fascinating! Really! #NewYearNewBooks @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
