Three little girls dressed as the three women that won the space race for the United States in 1962
Katherine Jackson, Mary Johnson, and Dorothy Vaughn
Repost (incase you don't know who these women are)
The movie "Hidden Figures," will be based on a book of the same name that's due out next year. It is about three unsung heroes, a group of Black American Female math wizards, sometimes referred to as "human computers," who helped NASA win the space race.
The story follows Katherine Jackson, Mary Johnson, and Dorothy Vaughn, the three women who served as the brains behind NASA’s Friendship 7 mission, which saw astronaut John Glenn become the first American to orbit the Earth in February 1962.
Pop star Janelle Monae has landed the third lead alongside Taraji P. Henson and Octavia Spencer ... Ted Melfi is directing the movie and producing with Chernin Entertainment and Donna Gigliotti of Levantine Films...
