Celebrate Valerie Thomas’ birthday month with us! Valerie Thomas is an American scientist and inventor who worked at NASA from the 1960's until she retired in 1995. She invented a way to transmit 3D images using concave mirrors and patented it in 1980. NASA still uses her technology today! Join us to make a simplified version of the 3D Illusion Transmitter yourself!
