Good article. When did the gender barrier break at NASA? I only ask since the article really gravitates to the gender topic. I think it's absolutely awesome she's fulfilling her dreams, most don't.

Erin Nelson, awesome look at being a female engineer at NASA.
“It was when the shuttle was still flying, and they had all these hands-on activities and different astronaut space suits and helmets on display that you could put on, and I remember thinking: ‘Wow, NASA’s really cool! And space is cool!’ I got really excited about it from that.”
