The name of our robot is a play on the name of Katherine Johnson, an African-American woman who did trajectory analysis for NASA during America's first human spaceflight in 1961 and helped calculate the Apollo 11 moon landing. By naming our robot after Ms. Johnson, we seek to inspire and empower our team members to embrace challenges in the male-dominated field of robotics with the same tenacity and brilliance that defined Katherine Johnson’s career.
