This program was hosted by the national air and space museum. [applause] wel feel strongly that we wit we to set foot on mars will indeed have stepped through our doors forced, first, and maybe she will come back to give a lecture of her own someday. Before introducing our speakers im really excited to also let you know we have a special guest who is able to join us at the last moment. Her name is marian lee johnson, and like the women featured in the movie, she was one of the Space Programs Hidden Figures. Ms. Johnson was an engineer in huntsville, alabama working for boeing, the sponsor for tonights event. She worked on the team that determined the path the saturn five would take if the rocket fell back to earth. Their work was vital. After boeing and a successful career in computer technology, she now teaches the next generation of computer workers. Clean join me in recognizing and welcoming ms. Mary lee johnson. Lee johnson.
