Let's make this birthday one to remember.

89 years old (Born on February 22, 1936)

Happy birthday to the amazing Nader Khalili—the man who looked at Earth and said, "I bet I could build a Martian home out of this dirt!" Your brilliant Superadobe idea didn't just answer NASA’s challenge; it also turned regular soil into sustainable shelters fit for Mars, the Moon—and backyards everywhere. Today we toast you for pioneering not just a building technique but a whole new frontier combining creativity, mud pies, and interplanetary ambition.

Not every innovator can claim to have collaborated with NASA while literally playing in the dirt. You're proof that groundbreaking achievements often begin—quite literally—from the ground up! Happy birthday—stay celestial yet down-to-earth as always!
