Alan Turing---The founder of modern computer science. He was an outstanding mathematician, biological scientist and part of the crew who found the key to a mysterious war communication system. He wrote a 1936 paper on computable numbers with an application to the entscheidnungsproblem, and many thanks to Mr. Turing and all onboard here. There is a very special problem to be solved called the P vs NP:

“Mathematicians talk about the beauty of numbers…they are talking about the computable, the beauty of what can be resolved. But what about the rest? The greater infinity. What’s not computable lies beyond the infinitesimal sliver of knowledge we’ve managed to subdue inside our fragile trembling human conscience. A consciousness which is in fact decaying within us from the moment we are born.”
-A. M. Turing (from the movie Codebreakers)[2]
