Rodney Brooks who founded Rethink Robotics has definately an interesting story. Especially knowing that Rethink Robotics had initially raised money from Jeff Bezos, Goldman Sachs, something like 150M I believe. But despite all those high profile backers, it had to shut down in late 2018 i believe and was acquired by the Hahn Group, a German automation company.
This is an awesome update. It was only in 2018 that a high energy neutrino was detected by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory (funny name lol) that was traced back to its source, a blazar. This was a active galaxy with a supermassive black hole at its center. That was the first time ever that scientists had identified the source of a high energy neutrino, and now scientists generated a whole new avenue of research in astrophysics with this. :)
