On this episode, let's talk about some very important women, past and present, that have impacted space science as well as chemistry. Highlighting these women will, hopefully, inspire the next generation of girls to pursue careers in STEM fields. Having diverse and inclusive thoughts and discussions will only give us better solutions to the problems we face. Image from youthareawesome.com.
