Margaret Hamilton (born August 17, 1936, Pauli, Indiana, U.S.) is an American computer scientist who was one of the first computer software programmers; she created the term software engineer to describe her work. She helped write the computer code for the command and lunar modules used on the Apollo missions to the Moon in the late 1960s and early ’70s.

While studying mathematics and philosophy at Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana, she met James Hamilton, and they subsequently married. After graduating in 1958, she taught high-school mathematics for a short time. The couple then moved to Boston. Although Margaret planned to study abstract mathematics at Brandeis University, she accepted a job at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) while her husband attended Harvard Law School. At MIT she began programming software to predict the weather and did postgraduate work in meteorology.

In 1959, a female rhesus monkey named Able and a squirrel tail monkey named Baker were successfully launched into space and returned alive! This mission, on May 28, 1959, was a crucial step in the United States' space program, as it provided valuable biomedical data on the effects of space travel on living organisms. Able & Baker were the first primates to survive a spaceflight and return safely, making them significant figures in the space history.

Ada Lovelace (1815-1852) was an English mathematician and author. She created the first drafts for programming computers, and was the daughter of the poet Lord Byron and Lady Milbanke. She was privately tutored in maths and science, and was brought up by her mother, as her father left when she was young. In the early 1830's, Ada Lovelace became acquainted with the mathematician Charles Babbage, who was designing the Analytical Engine. She translated a paper by an Italian engineer about the Analytical Engine. Ada Lovelace made some notes on this paper, including a detailed algorithm that showed how the Analytical Engine could be used to calculate Bernoulli numbers.

This algorithm is considered by many to be the first computer program, meaning Ada was the first computer programmer.

Carl Sagan was a famous scientist and thinker who loved to learn about space and the stars. Carl Sagan is famously known for making hard questions easy to understand and has the theory that there could have been life forms on Mars. Sagan believed that learning about the universe could help us appreciate the Earth.He wrote more than 20 popular books about the universe and even won a Pulitzer Prize for his work. Sagan is probably most famous as the creator and host of the PBS documentary series Cosmos. A Personal Voyage, which was first broadcast in 1980. Carl was born in Brooklyn, New York,but went to Chicago University. Carl was obsessed with space his whole life and wanted to encourage kids who loved space as much as he did and teach them to look up at the stars and dream about exploring space one day. Carl Sagan died at the age of 62 because of pneumonia, but his last words were "goodbye Ann" as he was talking to his wife and slowly closed his eyes and died gracefully.
