I think it's great that NASA has recognized someone who helped make the space program really work with this lasting tribute. (There are more fun tributes to the contribution of women to NASA--but this is pretty awesome.)

If this seems like more of my shameless joy about women getting their due in STEM fields, well, yeah.
