Mathematician Katherine Johnson's calculations sent astronauts to the moon!🌕🧑‍🚀

She ran complicated equations to calculate the trajectory of spacecraft. She also worked directly with new, advanced digital #computers🚀

Since it's #NationalCodingWeek, we have to mention the incredibly talented Ada Lovelace!

Born in 1815, she was believed to be the first-ever computer programmer. She worked with inventor Charles Babbage to design a mechanical computer: the Analytical Engine👩‍💻

Love a little #mathsinart

[SciComp_STFC @SciComp_STFC]

It’s #ThrowbackThursday and we’re going back to 1968, when this #computerart was created by Lloyd Sumner!🖼️

He programmed a computer to draw these amazing shapes simply using code and his imagination!

He described himself as "an artist with a tool not a programmer with luck."🎨

Interesting to read how mathematical modelling can be used to study the effects of climate change.

What takes a mathematician to the Arctic?

For Oxford Mathematician @MikeJCoughlan, it's to observe melt ponds on sea ice so as to better model their evolution; modelling that will help plot changes in the region as it warms.
