“It is ok when things get hard. When I entered into engineering, I constantly battled thoughts that I was not smart enough… But I learned that failure is a critical component of progress, it is ok when things get hard, it just means that you have a new opportunity to grow.”

As an African American woman in chemical engineering, Sydney Floryanzia knows a great deal about struggle. However, whatever challenges her distinction may afford, Sydney is focused on solving problems and encouraging those around her.

“If I could go back in time and tell myself one thing, I would say that It is ok when things get hard. When I started my second year at NC State, I constantly battled thoughts that I was not smart enough. When the assignments got difficult, I would begin to doubt myself, I would think, “maybe there is a reason why there are no girls in engineering, especially black girls.” But I learned that failure is a critical component of progress, it is ok when things get hard, it just means that you have a new opportunity to grow. Media has progressed significantly in its representation of science, but I think there still exists a misconception about the nature of discovery and the scientific process. You see people like Tony Stark go into his lab and in five minutes make something amazing, but science is all about trial and error. Failure is a given, how you choose to optimize what you are given is what really determines success.”

@NASA is naming its newest space telescope for pio

@NASA is naming its newest space telescope for pioneering astronomer Nancy Grace Roman — marking the first time in the agency’s 62-year history that one of its major, billion-dollar programs has been named for a woman.
🔭⭐🚀
In a statement released by the agency, former Maryland senator Barbara A. Mikulski (D), a champion of both the Hubble and now the Roman, said the decision is fitting as the nation celebrates the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage: “It recognizes the incredible achievements of women in science and moves us even closer to no more hidden figures and no more hidden galaxies.”
🔭⭐🚀
As NASA’s first chief astronomer, Roman oversaw the creation of its earliest orbiting observatories. “Looking through the atmosphere is like looking through a piece of old stained glass,” she wrote in the Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics. She knew an observatory in the sky would allow scientists to see objects farther and fainter than they ever had before.
🔭⭐🚀
“But I am glad I ignored the many people who told me that I could not be an astronomer,” Roman wrote. “I have had a wonderful career in a field that I love.” @washingtonpost .
