All,

I hope everyone has a chance to see the fabulous = movie Hidden Figures   FORTRAN= plays a prominent role (in all caps of course =E2=80=94 the movie is set i= n the 1960=E2=80=99s after all), including a cover shot of a FORTRAN book. = I=E2=80=99d say more, but I don=E2=80=99t want to spoil the suspense for an= yone. :)

It=E2=80=99s especia= lly nice to know that the site of the movie, NASA Langley Research Center (= LaRC), still uses Fortran extensively, including in its development of the&= nbsp;FUN3D CFD software that several aerospace companies= , including SpaceX  continue use.  I taught a course= at NASA LaRC in 2014 and I believe Walt Brainerd has taught there in recen= t years so they are investing in learning modern Fortran.  I wonder if= Katherine Goble Johnson, who inspired the main character and who is alive = today at 98, knows that Fortran is still playing a significant role there. =
