Which famous engineer should be on an element14 sticker?

About five years ago, we printed up some element14 stickers with Nikola Tesla on them.  i just found the last remaining one in my desk drawer which made me think that we should have some new ones printed. 

 

We're also going to print some with Ada Lovelace.

Who else should get this high honor?  Here's our suggestions, "vote" for two in the comments below!

Thomas Alva Edison

Michael Faraday

Beulah Louise Henry

Heinrich Hertz

image

Katherine Johnson

Hedy Lamarr

    I'd go with Johnson and Lamarr although all are worthy.

    I personally would like to vote for Lise Meitner and Rosalind Franklin (Unsung heroines of Science).

    Though the 'Hidden Figures' remains to be my all time favorite.

    If you made a Katherine Johnson one, then I'd love to be able to pass one on to a friends daughter. She was heartbroken when she found out she'd died.

    If I recall correctly, also the man behind the eight-track cassette?

    I don't think anyone mentioned Bill Lear (of Lear Jet fame). He did many incredible things and made tons of money.

    I think he designed the first Motorola - which was a car radio. (1930)

    It was so successful the company changed its name to Motorola.

    Jöns Jacob Berzelius Seems like a good candidate; as the discoverer of the 14th Element.

    Robert Moog. Modern music wouldn't be what it is without his high level input!
