I always remember that it was men who got the glory of first setting foot on the moon (and the only ones who've had the opportunity, so far): but part of what got them there were well-programmed computers. At the time, programming was seen as women's work: tedious, not glorious.

During Apollo 11, the crew in flight were surprised by a computer issue. Turns out they were a touch careless and had left too many tasks running: but it was programmed wisely and prioritized the tasks well, avoiding problems. Women's work saved the mission that day.
