NASA astronaut Christina Koch just made history as the first woman to fly around the moon. Koch also holds the record for the longest single spaceflight by a woman and took part in the first all-female spacewalk.

As we gear up for the Artemis II crew to head back to the Moon, it’s the perfect time to remember that sometimes the most important piece of tech on a spacecraft is the pilot’s own cool head (and maybe a cheap watch). 🚀

Good Morning! On this day, (Friday) April 10 in 1910 Margaret Clapp was born. She was an American scholar, educator and Pulitzer Prize winner. She was the president of Wellesley College from 1949-1966. During this time, she was able to make many improvements to the college. #Herstory #WomeninSTEM 🧪
Bugie was told it wasn't important for her name to be on the patent as she would "one day get married & have a family."
Waksman wrote articles about 𝗵𝗶𝘀 discovery, rarely mentioning help he'd received. Bugie was eventually awarded 0.2% of the streptomycin royalties. #WomenInSTEM #MatildaEffect 2/2
A black-and-white historical photograph of Elizabeth Bugie, a pioneering biochemist, working in a laboratory. She is shown from the waist up, wearing a short-sleeved white top and focusing intently on her work. She has dark, shoulder-length hair and is holding a piece of glassware connected to a black rubber tube, seemingly adjusting a filtration or distillation setup. Several Erlenmeyer flasks and glass funnels sit on the bench in front of her. In the background, shelves are filled with numerous glass chemical bottles of various sizes, and a window with multiple panes is visible to the right.
Biochemist Elizabeth Bugie co-discovered streptomycin (with Selman Waksman), the first antibiotic against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Waksman went on to win the 1952 Nobel Prize for Medicine & took full credit for the discovery. Bugie died #OTD in 2001. #WomenInSTEM #MatildaEffect (1/2)
Fluorescence is what happens when matter absorbs light and gives some of it back as glow ✨
A small glimpse into what usually stays hidden. 🔦

Damn, I love space women… Janeway, Mon Mothma, Christina Koch (yay, a real person made the list!), Eva Stratt from Project Hail Mary. No one does sapphically-coded women like space apparently! Lmao #queersky #womeninstem #lol #projecthailmary #sapphic

I've officially welcomed my first thesis student as an incoming PI. July 1st is starting to feel real!
To the young women finding their way into research, the process matters. Preparation, curiosity, courage. Outcomes usually find you.
Grateful for voices like Cori Close!

As NASA’s first Black female engineer, Mary Jackson studied how air flows around aircraft, work that helped advance the science of aerodynamics and improve flight. Her career also helped pave the way for greater inclusion in STEM.
