There are studies showing that more diverse teams are more effective (www.weforum.org/agenda/2019/04/business-case-for-diversity-in-the-workplace/), which matches neatly with the exponential increase in the velocity of scientific progress that has coincided with ever greater numbers of women and other minorities successfully fighting their way into the scientific community.

The other shoe that dropped on continental drift also came from military data, begun in WW2 so submarines wouldn't run into underwater mountains or have confused compasses: it was noted that magnetic orientation of crustal data often shifted or reversed over some distances, and this was also mapped for military reasons. By the 1950's this was released to the scientists who used it to "prove" continental drift. This aspect of geologic discovery owes much to the needs of military submarines.

That's because in today's day and age, doing science isn't gendered (mostly!) like it was in the past. Today, it is delightfully normal (again, 'mostly'). Almost all Nobel Prize winners of the past in science are men. Like Tharp, women had to fight off demeaning phrases like 'Girl Talk' and peer attitudes that did not help their careers. Their discoveries were stolen and cited as men's discoveries. And I'm sure you know the absolutely tragic story of Alan Turing. So yes, these people are DEFINITELY Icons Of Representation for their time, and should be remembered as such - they stuck with the science in the face of people who blew them off. Like you are now, too. A current, history-in-the-making example, non science related, is Kamala Harris. 20 years in the future there will a video talking about her and a Mendicant Bias will call it affirmative action, "whether she deserves the recognition or not". Nevermind the fact that every VP before her was a white, old male. Nevermind how significant a fact that is. Nevermind that she will be an icon for other aspiring black and women politicians.
