As some of you have heard, the Nobel Prize was given this year for discoveries in astrophysics. Among the winners is Sir Roger Penrose - for black holes (here is the summary: https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/physics/2020/summary/ )


Here is a photo of him (on the right) that I took 10 years ago, in the newly built physics institute building with the foyer that has so-called "Penrose tile" on the floor:
