Congratulations to our good friend and colleague Dr. Nicole Sharp, creator of FYFD (which is the grandest fluid dynamics exploration/adventure on the internet), who is now officially statuesque. A statue of her will soon be on display on the National Mall in Washington, DC, in company with statues of some fellow scientists:
From March 5 to 27, the Arts + Industries Building’s FUTURES exhibition, the National Museum of Natural History, and Smithsonian Gardens will partner to host the Smithsonian debut of #IfThenSheCan – The Exhibit, the largest collection of statues of women ever assembled together, to be installed on and around the National Mall. The 120 life-size 3D-printed statues are of a diverse coalition of contemporary women STEM innovators and role models leading a variety of fields, from protecting wildlife, discovering galaxies, building YouTube’s platform, to trying to cure cancer.
