I have loads of grading and stupid committee stuff and proposals to read and (another) thesis to read (and still that awful referee response to deal with) and my kids are super grumpy.

But I just scheduled an interview for a National Geographic article later in the week so that's pretty darn cool.

Also, baby goats are coming sooooon. First goat mama is due on Sunday!

One of the first Black women employed as a NASA scientist (& its predecessor NACA), she was known for her mastery of complex manual calculations of orbital mechanics & played a pivotal role 🧵1/

For #ArtAdventCalendar Day 13: Happy birthday to #mathematician Virginia Ragsdale (1870-1945). The Ragsdale conjecture, made in her 1906 dissertation, is amongst the earliest and most famous on the #topology of real & algebraic curves, which stimulated a lot of 20th century research & was not disproved until ‘79. A correct upper bound has yet to be found. In her dissertation she tackles the 16th of David Hilbert’s famous 23 unsolved 🧵1/n
