Wernher von Braun Society

(1912-1977) Wernher von Braun was a German-American rocket physicist, astronautics engineer and space architect, becoming one of the leading figures in the development of rocket technology in Germany and the United States. He served as director of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center and the chief architect of the Saturn V launch vehicle, the superbooster that propelled the Apollo spacecraft to the Moon.

Thomas Edison Society

(1847-1931) Thomas Edison was an Ohio-born inventor who only attended school for three months, he created devices that transformed society, such as a reliable electric light bulb, the electric generator, phonograph, wireless telegraph, motion-picture projector, and alkaline, iron-nickel batteries.

Sir Isaac Newton Society

(1642-1727) Sir Isaac Newton was a British scientist famous for many revolutionary discoveries. He worked out the basic laws of motion and gravity. He also showed that sunlight is made up of all the colors of the rainbow. He invented the branch of mathematics called calculus, but he kept this discovery quiet. Soon after, a German philosopher and mathematician named Gottfried von Leibniz (1646-1716) also worked out a system of calculus, and made it widely known.

Marie Curie Society

(1867-1934) Marie Curie was a Polish-French physical chemist known for discovering radium, which is used to treat some diseases. She won the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1911. She and her husband, Pierre Curie, also won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1903 for their work in radiation.

Leonardo Da Vinci Society

(1452-1519) Leonardo Da Vinci was one of the greatest painters of all times, but is also known as the ultimate Renaissance man because he was perhaps the most widely talented person ever to have lived. He was a painter, sculptor, inventor, military engineer, scientist, botanist and mathematician.

Rosalind Franklin Society

(1920 -1958) Rosalind Franklin was a British biophysicist, physicist, chemist, biologist and X-ray crystallographer who made important contributions to the understanding of the fine molecular structures of DNA, RNA, viruses, coal and graphite. Franklin is still best known for her work on the X-ray diffraction images of DNA.

Nikola Tesla Society

(1856-1943) Nikola Tesla was an Austria-Hungary physicist who emigrated to the U.S. in 1884 pioneered the generation, transmission, and use of alternating current (AC) electricity, which can be transmitted over much greater distances than direct current.
