    This article completely ignores the contributions made by women such as African American Katherine Johnson.She and Al Hamer had previously coauthored a series of reports for how to navigate without a guidance computer. Ms. Johnson and many other women had provided much critical work for the Apollo program (and preceding programs). (source: “Hidden Figures” (book) by Margot Lee Shetterly)
