A lot of posters dont like the movie Hidden Figures. Katherine Johnson said she was happy with the movie, except for 1 or 2 things. She saw it right before she passed away. She endorsed the movie. So if she was happy with it, and endorsed it, who are we too call it into question. And WITHOUT that movie, most of us would have NEVER known who those amazing ladies were.
john glenn called her the girl if she had been a man he would have called him boy! that was in 1961. it is a huge 'deep south' concession when her white supervisor does not call her by her first name. she calls her Mrs and that is a big get, what will that eponymous white women teach her children will she teach them to hate.
I am a 76 year old white woman. That movie is part of my permanent recorded movie list. I watch it often. I would recommend ANY parent with young children (especially girls) show them this movie….tell them this story.
Yes, the historical inaccuracies were few and minor. And in this era, the film makers could have gone hog wild exaggerating the bigotry of the white people and the heroism of the black women, and no one would have said one critical word. Instead, they restrained themselves enough to both demonstrate these things, and allow the movie to retain credibility as at least a loose historical account. It was a great movie. People who object to movies like that should just watch documentaries only.
I teach at West Virginia State University, a HBCU, and Ms Johnson’s Alma mater and just outside my building is a beautiful statue of her surrounded by benches and flowers. A great tribute
As a fan of the movie Hidden Figures, this documentary, adds so much credence to the film. She is true American Hero and deserves to be celebrated. I salute you ma'am!!!!!
When I was an undergrad in Mechanical Engineering in the mid 70’s we had senior projects. The Dean of Mechanical Engineering was the advisor for all our projects. When we wrote our final reports, he then submitted some of them to engineering journals under his name, while our names were after his. He took the credit, as the second name wasn’t considered anywhere near as important, like a lab assistant. He furthered his career at our detriment. We did all the work in developing the scope and procedures and execution of the projects. He only met with us briefly once a month to ensure we were making progress. I’m glad this brilliant hard working woman finally received the honor and notoriety she earned.
The same thing happens with the grad student. That is why more energy and effort is put into the grad students by the professors. The grad student does the work and the prof gets to put his name on the paper and be "published' and thus not "perish". I highly recommend to undergrads to never go to a uni that is renowned for its grad program but they will be ignored and often get a subpar education.
@@Prometheus7272welcome to academics. It's common place for Post docs doing all the work then the tenured PhD "doing the research" putting his name on it. There's an expression in academics. Publish or perish. Most graduating students come out with a mountain of debt and no job in their field of study.

Thank you for putting this together. After watching Hidden Figures I wanted to learn more about this amazing Lady. Now I feel I have a better understanding of her. Thanks.
The father was a genius in how he moved his family around in order for them to have a high school education and then found ways to continue to have a college education. Call that smarts, wisdom, vision, beating the system and bravo to him!❤❤❤
Yea just think of the parents that didn’t have that ability to move to a better area for their children’s education and the many hopes, dreams , talents and knowledge was lost due to the racism
Truly a heroic person as well as an intellectual one. A powerful and beautiful soul. I am a retired commercial pilot thankful for her work. Rest in Peace, Ms. Johnson.

Thanks to all who helped put this together from those who provide the funs. To those sweeping the floors What an amazing lady one we should all be so lucky to know or work with. Just an amazing lady
The idea that people can achieve massive amounts of things in their lives is one that I wholeheartedly agree with, and I can tell you that in this stage there are too many people that want to beat down those who they think are what they should be yet I see a person like Catherine Johnson achieving levels of capability that allowed us to get to the moon and so I know that the prejudice that still is in the world today is What came out of people on their children before my time. Catherine Johnson was able to accomplish something the year. I graduated high school yet. I didn’t hear her name until after I was over 40 years old and wonder what the difference might’ve been had I known her and her story while I was still a child. What accomplishments can be done is one of those things that anyone should be able to do and I hope that one day sooner or later we can do it together This is what her story tells me and this is what I hope that we in the United States can learn from.
Before the advent of super computers, we had people like her, whose work made flights to space possible. Without the beautiful minds of Katherine Johnson and others like her, we would have never have made it to the moon. Thank you.
@@NASA-criminals When your conspiracy theory requires that all the people in a position to know are lying, you can be certain, you're a loon.

And we have had photos of the Earth since the dawn of the space age in the 1950s. Photo Shop did not exist in the '50s. The original version came out in 1988, long after the Apollo program was over in the late 70s. Before the 80s there were no computers capable of remotely significant digital image processing and we didn't have photorealistic CGI until the 90s.

I think she was just the most amazing inspirational woman…… just brilliant. Loved the film about her life, Hidden Figures… such an incredible story to tell! Much respect to you Katherine Johnson…..
Katherine Johnson was one of the most brilliant scientist in the USA ,we should be very thankful to her for helping the men get to the moon and back ,which is no small achievement at the time,if anybody doubt that look at all the failures of Space X ,with all the Modern computers an science and he can’t get it straight !
I saw the movie, Hidden Figures and was moved by her accomplishments. I think they all did a great job, especially Kevin Costner and I enjoyed the story of a brief section of her life. I didn't realize then that it was much larger than the movie indicated. I am happy we still have her and she has had a great life.
Mom and Dad came to America to give us an opportunity to be able to become successful through hard work. Their sacrificial love through working long hours just to send us to college, we can never repay them back. I believe in giving back to this country and the opportunity it provides for us. Freedom is not free we have to protect our freedom, our Constitutional foundation for the next generation. God Bless everyone and have a blessed life. 🙏🙏🙏
Don't be stupid, that immigrant crap means you were too weak or scared to fix your own country, so come to America where the BLOOD AND HARD WORK of BLAC, folks has made it illegal to repress other COLORED PEOPLES OF ALL COLORS. !!!
The right kind of parents can make a child believe in themselves to stand up to an indifferent world in a humble way. I loved Leland Melvin's comments. Shero's indeed!
And in that conversation, at least in the movie, she credited Kepler with originating the equations used in the calculations. Putting her in that line of greats: Galileo, Newton, Kepler, …,, Johnson. Quite an accomplishment! They all worked with great difficulties.
If anyone has not seen the movie, Hidden Figures, you are missing out. She was an incredible person who stood out in a time when it was not easy to do so. She is such an inspirational figure in our history. The acting in the movie was superb and it was a fitting tribute to Katherine Johnson.
I am danish,71 years old sailor from the seven seas. I learned early from my Father,to look at a mans eyes and his actions,thats how you see who he is,not by his color or race,we are all just Humans,sons and daughters of God,act like it. :-) And it works,I could talk to all kinds of people on my travels,an open mind and a smile can do a lot. :-)
I'm glad your father taught you that I'm in my 70s aswell that what MARTIN LUTHER KING was talking about the content of your character not the color of your skin
Just what I was looking for after watching the movie!! What an incredible mind and a beautiful and humble woman who will now touch many more lives with her amazing journey!!
The thing to realize about the movie is that it compresses 10 years of her work, at NASA, Into 90 minutes. She started, at what was the predecessor of NASA, in 1953. She published or co-authored more than 24 papers on aviation and space flight.
She was a brilliant woman, and if she wasn’t working for NASA. Nothing would have gotten off the ground. She was the key to NASA’s success. What an inspiration to all.
I grew up and lived in Hampton, Virginia my entire life not far from NASA Langley where she worked and never jeard of Katherine Johnson until the movie about her life came out. What a brilliant woman.
Katherine truly proves how irrelevant our skin colour, hair style, sex and all the rest of these superficial attributes. She was a genuine genius. And a kind and sweet person. It’s clear the NASA people were very proud of her!!
What a profound person, Catherine Johnson, who had to overcome so much prejudice --- but she did. We bought our first color tv (24 in.) to watch the moon landing which happened in the middle of the night (if I remember correctly).
Same here but it happened at about 8pm EST -5GMT which was my bed time, but my dad let me stay up a while. I was 9, & right then I wanted to be an astronaut.
I had never heard of this great woman, I did not have the information and when I arrived at the cinema she impressed me in such a way that it has left a deep mark on my mind. What a great woman, very little is given like her, not only because of her quality of person, but also because of her intelligence. God has you on his daily journeys, tracing his paths.
Catherine Johnson was a teacher. A teacher helped us go to the moon and back. It is as simple as that. I am not a teacher, but my father , now in his 80s, was a teacher in his earlier years. This documentary shows that teachers teach and they do. There is this negative saying that those that cannot do, teach. Really? They tried that one on me when was training software developers in the 1990s, I laughed at them, because I was also a software developer and apart from training many developers from all over the world right here in South Africa, I also did software development projects as a software development consultant from a wide array of fields. From financial, agricultural, engineering to tourism and mining. if you train or teach people it does not mean that you cannot do. When I look at Catherine Johnson's achievement, it makes me feel better at being a non-white person myself, who, in post-apartheid South Africa had to be a pioneer for others around me, in a white, male dominated field and during a time when we had our very first, internationally recognized democratic elections. The mother of one of my best friends was also Catherine Johnson, though not the one in the video, and that is so weird!
My hat I tip to Katherine Johnson. There are so many sisters and women who fought the many battles irregardless of the levels of difficulty and never got their breakthroughs. Iam very happy that we recognize her strength,courage, intelligence, integrity, endurance and faith. May we as women of color and women of the world always strive to promote each other because if we don't we may be forgotten again and again force to be seem,but, not heard!!!!😢😊
Yes people and the United States government were fearful that the Soviets would have satellites that could send Atomic missiles on to the United States not unlike what the United States did to Japan. It's almost like we can dish it out but we can't take it. And thank you for all your contributions you remarkable woman Mrs Johnson
Satellites weren't needed, the government gave the task to the British to see if they could break through the air defences, four out of 5 bombers simulated dropping nuclear bombs on US cities including the capital all but one bomber returned home, the 5th was intercepted by US fighters.
A lot of posters dont like the movie Hidden Figures. Katherine Johnson said she was happy with the movie, except for 1 or 2 things. She saw it right before she passed away. She endorsed the movie.

john glenn called her the girl if she had been a man he would have called him boy! that was in 1961. it is a huge 'deep south' concession when her white supervisor does not call her by her first name. she calls her Mrs and that is a big get, what will that eponymous white women teach her children will she teach them to hate.
Thank you.
I am a 76 year old white woman. That movie is part of my permanent recorded movie list. I watch it often. I would recommend ANY parent with young children (especially girls) show them this movie….tell them this story.
Yes, the historical inaccuracies were few and minor. And in this era, the film makers could have gone hog wild exaggerating the bigotry of the white people and the heroism of the black women, and no one would have said one critical word. Instead, they restrained themselves enough to both demonstrate these things, and allow the movie to retain credibility as at least a loose historical account. It was a great movie. People who object to movies like that should just watch documentaries only.

I just watched Hidden Figures on tv a week or two ago. That was a mind that definitely did not go to waste as so many young minds today end up.
I bow down to Katherine Johnson! 🙏🙏What an inspiration!
Katherine Johnson was one of the most brilliant scientist in the USA ,we should be very thankful to her for helping the men get to the moon and back ,which is no small achievement at the time,if anybody doubt that look at all the failures of Space X ,with all the Modern computers an science and he can’t get it straight !
An amazing...inspiring....true life story.
Wow! Love this story and tribute to Katherine Johnson.
What a fantastic documentary! Thanks for making this known. So much of our rich history has been lost. Katherine was a true hero in her field.
'A 'MIGHTY HALLELUJAH' to the genius, and legacy of KATHERINE JOHNSON" Thank you for your contribution to the U.S. space program"..
@@nathanjames-qz9ft NASA = NOT A SPACE AGENCY
I Greatly Admire this Great Woman for Her Skills and Knowledge of Math. I Admire Her for Her Courage. Ethics and Strength
What an amazing woman, a true leader that paved the way forward for more people than we could ever imagine.
What a wonderful biography! I loved the movie, Hidden Figures, but loved this real story, even more.
Excellent documentary! Thank you! I’d like to see more of these presentations.
What an amazing scientist and genius mathematician. Given how she was treated by NASA, her achievements were especially noteworthy.
Great documentary!!!!
I saw the movie, Hidden Figures and was moved by her accomplishments. I think they all did a great job, especially Kevin Costner and I enjoyed the story of a brief section of her life. I didn't realize then that it was much larger than the movie indicated. I am happy we still have her and she has had a great life.
She's no longer with us, she passed Feb 2020!
She was a hidden figure that was so extraordinary that she shined her light throughout the darkest of days.
What an ABSOLUTE PRECIOUS SOUL! Thank YOU, Katherine!
I which to have a meeting with every body who knew her. Remembering Katherin In her on Words.
Mom and Dad came to America to give us an opportunity to be able to become successful through hard work.
Their sacrificial love through working long hours just to send us to college, we can never repay them back.
I believe in giving back to this country and the opportunity it provides for us. Freedom is not free we have to protect our freedom, our Constitutional foundation for the next generation. God Bless everyone and have a blessed life.
🙏🙏🙏
Don't be stupid, that immigrant crap means you were too weak or scared to fix your own country, so come to America where the BLOOD AND HARD WORK of BLAC, folks has made it illegal to repress other COLORED PEOPLES OF ALL COLORS. !!!
Dear Katherine, you are truly of a kind!❤🎉
The right kind of parents can make a child believe in themselves to stand up to an indifferent world in a humble way. I loved Leland Melvin's comments. Shero's indeed!
An incredible woman. What more can be said.
An amazing story.
And in that conversation, at least in the movie, she credited Kepler with originating the equations used in the calculations. Putting her in that line of greats: Galileo, Newton, Kepler, …,, Johnson. Quite an accomplishment! They all worked with great difficulties.
If anyone has not seen the movie, Hidden Figures, you are missing out. She was an incredible person who stood out in a time when it was not easy to do so. She is such an inspirational figure in our history. The acting in the movie was superb and it was a fitting tribute to Katherine Johnson.
The best story I’ve never heard! Thanks!
wow and extraordinary great lady thankyou for all you have done
I am danish,71 years old sailor from the seven seas. I learned early from my Father,to look at a mans eyes and his actions,thats how you see who he is,not by his color or race,we are all just Humans,sons and daughters of God,act like it. :-) And it works,I could talk to all kinds of people on my travels,an open mind and a smile can do a lot. :-)
I'm glad your father taught you that I'm in my 70s aswell that what MARTIN LUTHER KING was talking about the content of your character not the color of your skin
Just what I was looking for after watching the movie!! What an incredible mind and a beautiful and humble woman who will now touch many more lives with her amazing journey!!
Absolute lovely documentary. Thank you.
An extraordinary woman! Surprisingly, I learn about her genius in 2024... 🌹💖🌹
Thank you for your informative video.
Love this story, loved Hidden Figures movie. God granted us a gift to change history.
I watched all this, it's crazy to have been there watching this @ this time.. & recorded ALL THIS as it happened.
The thing to realize about the movie is that it compresses 10 years of her work, at NASA, Into 90 minutes. She started, at what was the predecessor of NASA, in 1953. She published or co-authored more than 24 papers on aviation and space flight.
She was a brilliant woman, and if she wasn’t working for NASA. Nothing would have gotten off the ground. She was the key to NASA’s success. What an inspiration to all.
Dang. I’ve already watched Hidden Figures quite a few times but I was literally bawling while watching this documentary. 😩
I grew up and lived in Hampton, Virginia my entire life not far from NASA Langley where she worked and never jeard of Katherine Johnson until the movie about her life came out. What a brilliant woman.
Katherine truly proves how irrelevant our skin colour, hair style, sex and all the rest of these superficial attributes. She was a genuine genius. And a kind and sweet person. It’s clear the NASA people were very proud of her!!
What a profound person, Catherine Johnson, who had to overcome so much prejudice --- but she did. We bought our first color tv (24 in.) to watch the moon landing which happened in the middle of the night (if I remember correctly).
Same here but it happened at about 8pm EST -5GMT which was my bed time, but my dad let me stay up a while. I was 9, & right then I wanted to be an astronaut.
We stood outside and looked at the moon.
Truly an inspiring woman who changed the world.
Sounds like Mike Dorn is the narrator. If so, that is grand. If not? Whoever you are.... great work.
What a wonderful woman. So many accomplishments and well-deserved awards. God Bless her.
What a life 👏, amazing lady.
Respect ! Sincerely regards from Belgium - Europe.
This was brilliant. SHE was brilliant. Thanks for sharing her story!
Amazing. Awesome story
thank you for this post.this woman was a real shero,,and angel..
I had never heard of this great woman, I did not have the information and when I arrived at the cinema she impressed me in such a way that it has left a deep mark on my mind. What a great woman, very little is given like her, not only because of her quality of person, but also because of her intelligence. God has you on his daily journeys, tracing his paths.
Goose bump, totally awesome, and still like to learn.
Catherine Johnson was a teacher. A teacher helped us go to the moon and back. It is as simple as that. I am not a teacher, but my father , now in his 80s, was a teacher in his earlier years. This documentary shows that teachers teach and they do. There is this negative saying that those that cannot do, teach. Really?
They tried that one on me when was training software developers in the 1990s, I laughed at them, because I was also a software developer and apart from training many developers from all over the world right here in South Africa, I also did software development projects as a software development consultant from a wide array of fields. From financial, agricultural, engineering to tourism and mining. if you train or teach people it does not mean that you cannot do. When I look at Catherine Johnson's achievement, it makes me feel better at being a non-white person myself, who, in post-apartheid South Africa had to be a pioneer for others around me, in a white, male dominated field and during a time when we had our very first, internationally recognized democratic elections. The mother of one of my best friends was also Catherine Johnson, though not the one in the video, and that is so weird!
OUTSTANDING! Very informative and inspirational!!
I love how interactive the creator is with the community. So rare these days!
What a great story interesting & educational, she made humanity proud.❤
What a brilliant woman. She accomplished so much in her life. My hat is off to her and her memory...
My hat I tip to Katherine Johnson. There are so many sisters and women who fought the many battles irregardless of the levels of difficulty and never got their breakthroughs. Iam very happy that we recognize her strength,courage, intelligence, integrity, endurance and faith. May we as women of color and women of the world always strive to promote each other because if we don't we may be forgotten again and again force to be seem,but, not heard!!!!😢😊
Yes people and the United States government were fearful that the Soviets would have satellites that could send Atomic missiles on to the United States not unlike what the United States did to Japan. It's almost like we can dish it out but we can't take it. And thank you for all your contributions you remarkable woman Mrs Johnson
Satellites weren't needed, the government gave the task to the British to see if they could break through the air defences, four out of 5 bombers simulated dropping nuclear bombs on US cities including the capital all but one bomber returned home, the 5th was intercepted by US fighters.
I love hidden figures. I probably watch it at least once a month. I’ve had all my children and grandchildren watch she did also they also love it.
This is sooo wonderful!!!
Fantastic Mathematician, Woman, Wife, Mother & American hero!👍🏻🏆👏
