Currently into STAR TREK, BABYLON FIVE, THE EXPANSE ....and RAY BRADBURY's MARTIANS. in my own humble opinion "THE CAGE" was a brilliant pilot. EARTH FINAL CONFLICT deserved more seasons... I really like Asphalt 8 and Burnin' Rubber 3.

As well as being a famous Hollywood actress JULIE NEWMAR — still with us aged 93 — was also a patented inventor, real estate magnet & classically trained concert Pianist. Here she is playing a bit of Chopin on the TV show ‘My Living Doll’ in 1964.

Mathematician & geodeist Dr. Irene Fischer helped guide NASA to the moon. Joining the US Army Map Service in 1952, she unified centuries of broken data to calculate the Earth’s precise size/shape. Her calculations allowed NASA to safely program Apollo moon landing trajectories. 🧵 #WomenInSTEM

A historical, black-and-white portrait from 1966 of mathematician and geodesist Dr. Irene Kaminka Fischer (1907–2009), who unified world geodetic datums to guide NASA's Apollo moon missions. Captured in a head-and-shoulders, passport-style composition against a plain, light background, she poses facing forward with a calm, dignified, and intelligent expression. Her dark hair is styled in a voluminous, coiffed mid-century bob with a lighter, prominently swept-back section framing her forehead. She wears a dark jacket or dress featuring a wide, rounded Peter Pan collar, a thin necklace chain, and round stud earrings. Pinning her collar is an elegant, leaf-shaped brooch. In the upper right corner, the number "4" is printed as a small inset digit. The portrait conveys a formal, professional mood, serving as an important historical record of one of the 20th century's most accomplished female STEM pioneers during the peak of the Space Race.
