Years ago I went to the Philly ComicCon with some friends. On the first day we’re walking in and I see this huge shadow come up behind me and then over top of me and then I see the tallest person I’ve ever seen walking directly in front of me. Turns out it was Peter Mayhew. He literally walked over my small 5’0" self. It was surreal.
Great article! Fascinating to see how different seemingly unrelated areas of expertise and research get combined into a common goal as technologies advance.
