Sacagawea Coin to Recognize
Native Americans in Space
Every year the U.S. Mint changes the design on the reverse (tails) side of the Sacagawea dollar
coin, and in 2019 the design theme is American Indians in the Space Program, complementing
the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. Among the Native Americans who have
made significant contributions to the U.S. space program are Mary Golda Ross, AISES founding
member Jerry Elliott High Eagle, and Board of Directors member Dr. John B. Herrington.
A pioneering female engineer, Ross was instrumental in supporting the Gemini program
through her work at Lockheed Martin (see story on page 36); High Eagle received the Presidential
Medal of Freedom for his role in calculating the trajectory that enabled the safe return of the
imperiled Apollo 13 mission; and Herrington, the first tribally enrolled NASA astronaut, performed
three space walks on his mission to the International Space Station via the space shuttle
Endeavor. (See page 6 for more on Herrington.)
All will be honored with the release of the special edition of the Sacagawea coin. Many of the
proposed designs for the coin incorporate important Native symbols, like the eagle feather
Herrington carried into space.
