Annie Easley (1955), human computer for complex mathematical calculations at NASA (then still NACA).
Annie Easley by NASA on The Commons Via Flickr: Annie Easley, born on April 23, 1933, began her career at the NACA's Lewis Laboratory in 1955 as a human “computer.” When machines replaced people, she evolved along with them, becoming a computer programmer. She developed and tested code and analyzed data for a variety of research areas, including alternative energy, battery storage, and the Centaur launch vehicle. Easley retired from NASA in 1989. In this portrait of Annie Easley, she appears in the Engine Research Building’s Central Control Room at what is now known as NASA's Glenn Research Center.

Android Hal
Now a lot of what makes Hal so interesting is the ‘lack’ of a body and all that but I just think this is a fun thing to do.
He’s heavily inspired by a few 1920s-1930s actors, I think at heart he’s a old fashioned young man. A romantic hidden well beneath his logic. Absolutely useless headcanon for regular Hal is that he only knows songs 1890s-1930s, so I think ideally if he ever dressed himself he’d do have period attire.
Ive seen this idea from someone else and loved it but only his head, hands and some of his shoulders have fake skin the rest is purely robotic. It’s covered by the jumpsuit so it’s not as big of a deal (not featured as I do not have the drawing skill…) additionally not my idea but I love the Tin man style idea of his lense being on his chest over where a heart would be.
I’m not very good at drawing robotics but he’d be very 60s to go with the aesethics of everything else. A little bit rough round the edges more practicality that of looks. Frank never makes repairs because his T-800 lookin ass is terrifying at times.
The body only exists for very specific tasks and doesn’t have that many higher functions like his actual body ( the discovery itself). The android is more a ? Roundabout way of giving Hal a pair of hands and easing the crew. It’s easier to ask another person a question than a computer
