Grace Brewster Murray Hopper

In 1962, the United States of America decided to send people to the moon. As one of NASA’s “computers”, She studied geometry for space travel which helped her figure out the paths for spacecraft to orbit Earth and land on the moon.

Gladys Mae West, 1960s

Their works centered on Geometry were two of the most remarkable contributions to early Greek mathematics, approximately 500-600 BC.
