I hope your meeting with the Universe was wilder thatn you could hope.
Farewell, godspeed and thank you for everything you shared with us…
As a scientist I find myself saddened at the news this morning. I have one fewer role model to put things in perspective.
If the measure of success is to make everyone’s life better, than Stephen Hawking nailed it. In the great peer reviewed journal that is life, he was not only published but highly referenced. There are surprisingly few people who fit into that category.
Sad.
RIP
American talk show host Larry King once asked Prof Hawking what puzzles him the most in all the universe.
“Women,” he answered.
Must re-read a Brief History of Time…
RIP
RIP Sir.
I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.—Stephen Hawking.
Inventor of the Hawking Drive. Voice-over star extaordinaire. The first Brit I could actually understand. A guy who fooled me into thinking I could comprehend General Relativity, until I cracked a book and actually tried. People will be taking about him 500 years from now…if we’re still here.
He was also a very funny person…
