The WVU Planetarium will present the film “Outlier: The Story of Katherine Johnson” Friday (March 6) at 7 p.m., followed by telescope viewing if the weather is nice.
Reserve seating in the planetarium for “Outlier.”
“Outlier,” a documentary produced by MotionMasters, tells of the story of Johnson, an African-American mathematician who was born in 1918 in White Sulphur Springs, graduated high school at age 14 and college at age 18, and went on to famously become a physicist, space scientist and mathematician for NASA.
