Queens of Egypt

Hello World,
I was at the very cool National Geographic Museum the other day visiting the Queens of Egypt Exhibit. http://www.nationalgeographic.org/events/exhibition/queens-egypt/


I learned about the many Queens that reigned and what their influence was, from peace and prosperity to education and equity. It was very encouraging and enlightening to see that women, though we may not always get the credit initially, changed the world positively and made a difference. You can learn more here about the triumph, challenges, and the impact on past, present, and future

It isn't just the past however, women are making their impact today too, there are SO many places to find out about women who are doing amazing things- one of them for STEM women is https://wogrammer.org

It is exciting to think about where we will go next, whether it be the past history of an ancient society, or the future colony on Mars, women belong and we are leading the way.
