Stephen Hawking Dead 07:01 - Mar 14 with 982 viewsisawqpratwcity

I was just watching the Dara O'Brian interview with him and went to IMDb for the film discussed and saw the report.

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-43396008

"Prof Hawking was the first to set out a theory of cosmology as a union of relativity and quantum mechanics.

"He also discovered that black holes leak energy and fade to nothing - a phenomenon that would later become known as Hawking radiation."

Imo, he also deserves great respect as a teacher of the strange world of astrophysics with his books and the attention his disease generated.

Absolutely no earthly idea what he ever went on about. But he clearly had got to the very top of his field.

However, to do it while overcoming such a debilitating condition as motor neurone disease for over 50 years - especially when he was only given a couple of years to live - is his true legacy to us all.

Seconded. Plus he managed to have a cracking sense of humour, which is a brilliant example to us all as we face our own challenges, big or small.

The movie about him a few years ago was really good, was given 2 years to live back in the 60's. Incredible man
