Happy Birthday to Sir Brian May, born 19 July 1947, musician extraordinaire and astrophysicist 😎.

May graduated from Imperial College London with a BSc degree in math and physics. He worked on his PhD in astrophysics from 1970 to 1974, until his musical career took off. He finished it in 2006-2007!

Lately, May has collaborated with NASA on the New Horizons, OSIRIS-REx and DART missions, with JAXA on Hayabusa2 and with ESA on the Hera mission.
