The Greatest Achievement in Human History
The Space Shuttle Discovery is scheduled to launch on Saturday May 31st from Cape Kennedy. My husband and I are to be the guests of NASA. Why? I am one of the very few women Aerospace Engineers who worked on the Apollo Project in the 1960s. I worked on the rockets which were part of the Mighty Saturn V, the biggest rocket in history that WORKED. There were 400,000 people who worked on Apollo and maybe 6 women. This was in a time of racial strife, no equality, the Vietnam War, Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Communists and bad feelings about the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba.
