Ok. You know of Sally Ride but not Mae Jemison. Their work is equivalent.

You know of Watson and Crick, but not Rosalind Franklin. By you, I mean the general you.

I do know of Mae Jemison and Rosalind Franklin. Mae Jemison and Sally Ride, and Rosalind Franklin, James Watson and Francis Crick have a similar number of page views on Wikipedia, so I think they are all generally known about as well as each other. Maurice Wilkins less so.
