On the fourth day of Women's History Month, I want to pay tribute to Katherine Johnson (1918-2020), a remarkable mathematician whose precise calculations, executed during her tenure at NASA, played a pivotal role in ensuring the success of United States crewed space missions. In the words of Ms. Johnson, a mathematician and trailblazing African-American NASA scientist: "Girls possess the capability to achieve everything that men can. At times, their imagination surpasses that of men." #womenshistorymonth #womenentrepreneurs #womenintrucking #womeninlogistics #womeninsupplychain

do you know about Ed Dwight, read below from Milton Davis
Only a few weeks ago I learned about Ed Dwight, a man who was chosen to be the first Black astronaut by then President John F. Kennedy. Unfortunately after Kennedy was assassinated, Mr. Dwight's dream was denied until recently, when he was one of the passengers of Blue Origins New Shepard rocket. In 2016 I became aware of the sister mathematicians who worked for Nasa in the '60s, most notably the brilliant Katherine Johnson. I was born in 1960, and to have known of these amazing people as I was growing up would have change my perspective and those of the people around me at that time. Now I can't build a spaceship, but I can publish a collection of African/African Diaspora authors and poets sharing their imaginations of space, from this solar system, this galaxy, and beyond in their own unique way. That's what Spacefunk! is all about. And if you want to take this journey with us, follow the link choose your reward, and share with your friends. Let's travel the stars together.

The black women of NASA, every one of them, are pioneers I desire to hear more from. What were their lessons learned? What mistakes were the most painful mistakes and what can we do to avoid them? Who inspired them? What did they do to rise above the criticisms, judgments, and roadblocks certain personalities tried to create to limit them? To know how to get to where we want to go we have to know what we do not like. Model-based Problem Solving involves knowing what we do not like to find the pathway toward where we want to be. https://lnkd.in/gNjKxpKm

A word from our CEO
We were born at the NASA Research Park in Moffett Field where the Space Shuttle has ever epitomized the unmeasurable human drive to push the bounds of what is measurable. This week we celebrated a birthday: our company has become a teenager. This is the (lucky number!) 13th anniversary of the founding of Rhombus. It is still remarkable to me – and a “happy few” (to invoke a little Shakespeare) who were there with me in the earliest days – that something which began in a co-working space and graduated to Moffett Field is now a global venture from Stanford Research Park to Washington, DC with satellite offices in between. Most important is not where we sit but where we stand: trusted by the national security enterprise of the United States, with a growing customer base in the countries of our closest allies. Here's to 13 years of the indomitable Rhombus spirit, and to the next 13 years pushing the boundaries of what's possible. In all of these efforts, we’re inspired by the phrase our dear friend and original advisor Sam Araki gave us to live by: “rush to learn.” Rush to learn, Rhombus – now, Onwards!

Texas A&M is the 2nd largest research institute in the country. Thousands of undergraduate and graduate students are doing research in a wide variety of fields. Just Google “Texas A&M research and the topic’s name” and you’ll almost always find an institute, center, lab, or professor(s) doing research in that area. See for yourself! For example, 30+ years ago, I did undergraduate research on NASA’s Space Shuttle hydrogen fuel pumps. The hands-on design and machine shop experience helped me develop the skills I needed to get my first job as a Product Engineer in a manufacturing facility for medical devices 30+ years ago. Yet another example of how Texas A&M develops leaders and well rounded individuals, not just outstanding academic students! #engineeringexcellence #engineeringeducation #engineeringrecruitment #engineeringrecruiter #recruiters #recruiter #recruitmentspecialist #recruitmentsolutions
The System signed an agreement with NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration today that will allow Texas A&M University to develop a human spaceflight research and development facility at Johnson Space Center, continuing the proud space tradition of Texas A&M.

The first volume of the Space Sustainability Strategy released by NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration yesterday is more welcomed planning for the increasingly busy orbits around the Earth and beyond. In the document, the overarching goals of NASA are to, "maintain the conduct of space activities indefinitely into the future in a manner that is safe, peaceful, and responsible to meet the needs of the present generations while preserving the outer space environment for future activities and limiting harm to terrestrial life." Lofty goals for certain but it is imperative that the United States and the rest of the world's space powers continue to frame the problem set and cooperatively strategize accordingly. Check out the strategy here: https://lnkd.in/eh3jSdfk
