Click here for the BEHIND-THE-SCENES "highs and lows of meeting Roger Penrose": https://curtjaimungal.substack.com/p/... Sir Roger Penrose is a renowned physicist and mathematician known for pioneering the theory of twistors and his contributions to differential geometry, which have significantly impacted our understanding of space-time. Roger's work has been instrumental in advancing theories related to general relativity and quantum mechanics, including the Penrose-Hawking singularity theorems.
