Katherine Johnson
Edité par Frances Lincoln Children's Books - paru en 2025
Little Katherine loved learning and her favourite subject was maths. In class, she worked so hard that she was able to move up to high school four years early! Due to the racist laws of the time, Katherine’s family had to move town for her to go to a school where Black students were admitted. After high school and college, she was accepted to one of West Virginia’s top universities and was the first Black woman to attend. In 1953, she joined the US space agency, which later became NASA. Alongside other talented African American women, Katherine’s mathematical skills were essential to the early successes of the space programme. She was part of the team that planned the Apollo 11 mission which landed the first people on the moon! Katherine’s tenacity and expertise led to the dawn of a new era for humankind, making her an inspiration to all of us.
