Today, we honor the immense contributions of native communities—not only to the cultural fabric of our world but also to breakthroughs in STEM and Materials Science.

As we celebrate Native peoples' legacy as scientific innovators, we wanted to highlight just a few of the many inspiring Native American researchers and engineers throughout the last century:

- 𝙁𝙡𝙤𝙮 𝘼𝙜𝙣𝙚𝙨 𝙇𝙚𝙚 (of the Tewa Pueblo) worked on the Manhattan project and pioneered biomedical research into the physical effects of radiation exposure on human chromosomes.
- 𝙁𝙧𝙚𝙙 𝘽𝙚𝙜𝙖𝙮 (of the Navajo Nation) had a nearly 30-year tenure researching thermonuclear fusion in the Los Alamos National Laboratory's laser program, following his work with NASA's high-energy gamma ray project.
- 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙮 𝙂𝙤𝙡𝙙𝙖 𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙨 (of the Cherokee Nation) helped design early, top-secret spacecraft that would later pave the way for NASA's Apollo missions.
- 𝙅𝙚𝙧𝙧𝙮 𝘾. 𝙀𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙤𝙩𝙩 (of the Osage and Cherokee Nations) would serve on those Apollo missions as a Flight Mission Operations Engineer, where he played a critical role in bringing the Apollo 13 crew safely home after the explosion of an oxygen tank famously aborted the mission.

These exceptional individuals are only a small sampling of the Native American trailblazers in STEM fields across history and today. We hope you'll join us to take today to learn, listen, celebrate, and support indigenous voices, science, and innovation now and always.
