"Katherine Johnson" by Jeff Bane tells the inspiring story of an extraordinary mathematician whose work at NASA was crucial to the success of the United States space program. Overcoming racial and gender barriers, Johnson played a pivotal role in calculating trajectories for historic missions, including John Glenn's orbit around the Earth. The narrative highlights her brilliance, perseverance, and the impact of her contributions in a male-dominated field. Through determination and intellect, Katherine Johnson not only advanced space exploration but also became a symbol of overcoming adversity, showcasing the importance of diversity and representation in science and technology.
