Kip Thorne
Kip Thorne is a theoretical physicist whose work reshaped our understanding of spacetime, black holes, and the fabric of the universe. A longtime professor at Caltech, he co-founded LIGO and helped lead the effort that first detected gravitational waves, confirming a century-old prediction of Einstein and opening an entirely new way of observing the cosmos. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 and has spent a career asking how the universe actually behaves at its most extreme limits, from warped spacetime to colliding black holes.
