THE FILM'S AUTHOR
  
 

THE FILM AS A HUMAN ISSUE 

 The incredible untold true story of mathematician Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), computer supervisor Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer) and budding engineer Mary Winston Jackson (Janelle Monae), brilliant African-American women working at NASA, who served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit. This stunning achievement galvanized the world and inspired generations to dream big.
