Ada Lovelace Day Blog Extravaganza

We celebrated women in STEM and highlighted books and podcasts by and about women in STEM with an epic content marathon on our blog, which started at midnight on Kiritimati Island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and ended a full 50 hours later at midnight on Baker Island and Howland Island, two uninhabited atolls which are actually further west than Kiritimati Island but which sit on the other side of the International Date Line.
