The documentary reveals how women are finding new ways to honor their own growth, motivations and experience as they imagine how to make the science and technology workplace a comfortable environment.

Ohio State experiment returns to earth on space shuttle

Among the cargo items returned to Earth by the space shuttle Atlantis this morning was a solar energy device designed by an Ohio State University professor. The solar cell -- a device that converts sunlight to electricity -- performed exceptionally well as it was tested by NASA aboard the International Space Station over the last 16 months.

Rongxing Li

Rongxing Li, professor of civil and environmental engineering and geodetic science, and his team have developed a “MarsMapper” bundle adjustment and mapping software program. This software program provides efficient and highly accurate localization for the Mars rovers, enabling them to traverse the Martian surface and gather scientific samples. In addition, the team produces accurate maps (such as digital terrain models, orthophoto maps and rover traverse maps of the landing site) in near real-time to support science and engineering operations.
