So this article is about how we got our robot name;B-230.Too most people, it probably sounds like a regular robot name,right? Well it is not. It actually is a play on words. But before we understand the name, we must understand the Solar Calender.
This next paragraph is about the way the solar calendar. If you are in a country that follows the Lunar Calendar, this is for you. If you do not, just skip to this paragraph. So this is the calender in a nutshell: there are 365 days in a year, made up of 12 months. The 1rst month is 31 days (January), the 2nd one is 28 days (February) 3rd is 31 (March), 4rth is 30(April), 5th is 31 (May), and so on. Since a year is actually is 365.25 days long, every 4 years we add an extra day on too February, making it a 29 day month. So no matter what, there will NEVER be a 2/30 (short for Febuary 30th).
Now that we understand the calender, we can talk about the robot name. So the B in B-230 means BotSquad (that is us). The 230 means 2/30,which means February 30th, which is an impossible date. It used to be a joke, but now it has a very valid meaning. It’s kinda like mission impossible. The real meaning is BotSquad reaching impossible heights. It honors how if everyone works hard, even the impossible becomes possible.
Happy Reading !
