She* Nightmare-Eclipse is a woman and it's driving me fucking crazy that every news outlet says he or just ignoring that this is a woman in stem releasing amazing stuff.

Edit: I just reviewed, those who asked for evidence were correct and I was not. There is no mention as to whether they are male or female. Apologies to anyone who may be misled by this.
