Team 4: Katherine Johnson

Our Creation honors Mathematician Katherine Johnson, the trailblazing woman who calculated flight trajectories for Project Mercury, the first US human spaceflight. After graduating high school at 14, Johnson attended West Virginia State where math classes were developed specifically for her. She was the first African American woman to attend grad school at West Virginia University. Although she quit to focus on family, she later worked as “computer” for the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, which later became the National Aeronautics and Space Act. John Glenn personally asked her to double-check the accuracy of the computer-generated calculations before his orbit mission.
