The Sheela Na Gig Podcast celebrates women in history whose strength, talent, and perseverance went largely (or completely) unrecognized or perhaps someone you don't yet know about, but should! We are dedicated to celebrating women—one per episode—who we lovingly & reverently call “our Sheelas. Rocket girl, Mary Sherman Morgan was an unlikely hero for the US Space program. She had no college education. She'd had a child out of wedlock (in the 40s!). But she was great at what she did - which was making explosives. Soon thereafter, she invented the rocket fuel Hydyne, which was instrumental in launching Explorer-1,the first successfully launched satellite by the United States. Also this was an incredible accomplishment, unfortunately, lead engineer Wernhner von Braun got most of the credit. Let's Celebrate This Sheela! www.sheelanagigpodcast.com
