91 years old (Born on August 15, 1933)
Happy Birthday to the incredible Richard R. Ernst! Your groundbreaking work in multi-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance has truly resonated through history—quite literally spinning science into new dimensions and earning you that well-deserved Nobel Prize back in 1991.From your inspiring lectures at ETH Zurich, you've magnetically attracted countless students toward chemistry (pun absolutely intended). You've shown us all how exciting molecules can be when they're dancing under a powerful NMR machine!
Here's wishing you another year filled with laughter, joy, and perhaps fewer complicated equations—but knowing you, that's probably impossible. Keep making waves—in every dimension possible!
