Nah.  The whole damned team is the coolest because they built this car-sized rover with a chunk of plutonium inside; launched it into space; got it into orbit around Mars; then set off an incredible sequence that would probably give regular folks heart attacks in landing the Curiosity on Mars — which can range in distance from 34 to 250 million miles away from Earth — apparently without a hitch. That’s what makes them cool.  Not a mohawk, sorry.
