Remarkable woman. Died at age 55 from cancer.

She was 18 years old when she earned her first engineering degree from Purdue. By 20 she had her Masters in electrical engineering from MIT. Went on to get her doctorate in aeronautics and astronautics from MIT as well....

A native of Rockford, Ill., Voss received her bachelor of science in engineering science from Purdue University in 1975, a master of science degree in electrical engineering and a doctorate in aeronautics and astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1977 and 1987, respectively.

Remarkable career.

I'm always torn on these ... do I click "like" because I'm glad you posted it, and look like a dick because I liked that someone died ... or do I click the minus button and look like a dick for giving you a negative?

Jesus.

Thanks for posting this, though. Sad news.
