The sassy black NASA women who singlehandedly got us to the moon

Gonna need 4 more mate...
For me, I'd go Einstein, Hilbert, Goedel, Grothendieck and Bohr.
In terms of raw intellect, Von Neumann
Oh shit, I'd probably substitute him for Grothendieck then.
Tesla, Musk, Einstein, Feynman, Barnett
Musk, for real?
Also, Tesla is criminally overrated...
Tesla Premium Electric Sedans and SUVs, Richard Dawkins, Graham Hancock, Joe Rogan, A Beautiful Mind (John Nash)

I might've substitute Witten or Dirac for Bohr but overall correct.
Is Witten really that good, I'm not familiar with him...
Absolutely, he's basically Grothendieck-like in physics where he has certainly contributed some extraordinary papers (and has won a fields medal too) but his methodology is what has been most important as it ignited his generation and will inspire many future generations.
Dip a it's you meme
Mochizuki, Hawking, Musk, Wildberger, Tao
>Bohr
The guys who's model of the building blocks of the universe was wrong? Top kek, Bohr was a fucking brainlet with his alchemy-tier atoms.
