    Greetings, I am Theodore von Kármán, born as Tivadar Mihály Kármán on May 11, 1881. My endeavors have primarily revolved around the realms of mathematics, aerospace engineering, and physics, with a specific focus on aeronautics and astronautics. Throughout my career, I have been dedicated to advancing the understanding of aerodynamics, particularly in the domains of supersonic and hypersonic airflow. The naming of the "Kármán line" to delineate outer space is a recognition of my contributions in this field.
