Everything Everywhere Daily - NASA’s Human Computers

Today computers are ubiquitous. You are listening to this podcast right now on some sort of computing device. 

However, before computers were machines, the name computer was given to people. Computers were people who computed. 

In fact, the early days of NASA and the space program relied upon these human computers, most of whom were women.
