collectSPACE Roadway in front of NASA Headquarters renamed for 'Hidden Figures'The history of NASA's early female mathematicians is a little less "hidden" today with the dedication of a new street sign pointing to the role of all women in the United States' space program. NASA officials joined members of Congress and local politicians in Washington, DC on Wednesday (June 12) to unveil the new ceremonial marker designating the stretch of E Street running in front of NASA's Headquarters building as "Hidden Figures Way." The new name honors Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson. | |
