Let's make this birthday one to remember.

77 years old (Born on February 25, 1948)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Kitaw Ejigu! You soared beyond Earth's orbit, engineering spacecraft and satellites for NASA, proving that Ethiopians don't just run marathons—they also run missions to space. Your brilliance made rocket science look easy; rumor has it even gravity took notes when you walked into the room.

Beyond your stellar career at NASA, founding the Ethiopian National United Front showed your passion wasn't limited to stars and satellites—it extended deeply into uplifting communities back home. Today we celebrate not just another orbit around the sun, but a lifetime of achievements that continue inspiring generations. Keep shining bright!
