(CNN) -- The contributions of NASA's first African-American female engineer will be "Hidden" no more.
The name of Mary Jackson, one of the inspirations for the book "Hidden Figures," now officially adorns the space agency's headquarters in Washington.
Members of her family attended the building's renaming ceremony along with the acting NASA administrator.
Jackson played a key role in the early days of NASA, doing the complex calculations that made space travel possible.
In 2019 she was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medla, the nation's highest civilian honor.
Jackson died at the age of 83 in 2005.
Janelle Monáe portrayed Mary Jackson in the 2016 "Hidden Figures" film.
