Beverly Johnson is one of the many women who help Hubble make history!
As Hubble's payload team manager, she supports flight software updates and investigates any issues that arise with the observatory's science instruments.
37 years later to the day, the MESSENGER spacecraft sent back the first photo of Mercury from orbit #OTD in 2011! MESSENGER gave scientists the first new data on the composition of Mercury's surface since Mariner 10's final 1975 flyby.
