In 2017, the West Virginia Legislature recognized Katherine Johnson, a female pioneer at NASA and a Presidential Medal of Freedom winner, marking April 3, 2017 as Katherine Johnson Day. Katherine, a West Virginia Daughter, broke gender and racial barriers, she left her mark with an impressive career at NASA, she even has a lego figure named after her.
