The famous British physicist Stephen Hawking died Wednesday (March 14th) at the age of 76. This extraordinary personality has left behind a great deal of scientific achievements and research of its age, leaving questions and questionable question marks about the source of this extraordinary genius, which challenged the difficulties in circumstances that could sow despair in the hearts of millions of people.
Few know some facts about the path and achievements of this world famous .. We know in these lines about the course of his life and aspects of the amazing and bright in his personality. Hawking was born in Oxford on April 8, 1942, the day of the death of the great astronomer Galileo Galilei. According to "Sky News."
Media reports say his first-grade education was mediocre and bad, but he was interested in how things worked. He devoted much of his time to dismantling clocks and radios, making his colleagues call him Einstein.
His father wanted his son to study medicine in Oxford, but Hawking was not convinced and preferred to study physics.
At the age of 21, he developed a neurological disease called "lateral sclerosis" which, over time, made him unable to move. Doctors said at the time that he had a very serious illness and that he would not live for more than two years, but he challenged the disease, which surprised doctors for years.
In 1985, he had to undergo surgery to cut his throat after pneumonia, and he was unable to speak at all. Stephen Hawking has theoretical research in cosmology and research on the relationship between black holes and thermodynamics, as well as studies on chronology.
One of the late works of the late is to simplify the concepts of complex physics, making them more flexible, so as to be easy to understand for everyone. Hawking worked with his assistant Jim Hartel to develop the theory of the "infinite universe," which changed the old perception of the explosion that preceded the creation of the universe, as well as not contradicting the fact that the universe is a regular and closed system.
In 2007, he experimented with zero gravity, where Stephen Hawking was away from his chair for the first time in four decades. The test was carried out by a modified Boeing 727 at 32,000 feet at a sharp angle and then dropped to 8,000 feet, making it test for zero gravity for 25 seconds.
He said that in the universe 100 billion galaxies, each containing hundreds of millions of stars, it is unlikely that the earth is the only place where life has evolved, noting that life may in other planets may be of the type of microbes or simple animals such as worms began Life on earth millions of years ago, he believes
