Nice work! You could put in Katherine Johnson too, who contributed massively to the Apollo space program by calculating trajectories for moon voyages

There's so many. The calculator departments alone could fill rafts of phonebooks.
Fortunately there's a wake up going on where these historical figures are now being recognised for what they did, but sadly we can't get them all (in the sense that many were never recognised for their achievements or they were coopted by a male coworker).
