William Hawking is a name associated with intelligence, scientific discovery and an incredible spirit of struggle. His life and scientific work became an inspiration to millions of people around the world. Let's dive into Hawking's biography and learn more about his amazing journey.Stephen was born on 8 January 1942 in Oxford, England, to an academic family. His father was a biologist and his mother a philosopher. From an early age, a bright mind and interest in science manifested itself. Although he began his studies at the University of Oxford, his scientific career found its real start at Cambridge.
In the early 1960s, Stephen began to notice unusual symptoms such as unsteadiness and falls. In 1963, while in his second year at Cambridge University, he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a severe neurodegenerative disease. Doctors predicted him only a few years of life.
Instead of giving up, he decided to focus on science and his scientific career. He began working on his doctoral research and concentrated on the study of black holes and cosmology. His work was so fundamental that it completely upended notions of black holes and the existence of singularity in space.
In 1988, Hawking published his famous book, A Brief History of Time, which became a bestseller and brought him worldwide fame. The book introduced complex concepts of physics and cosmology in an accessible form to a wide audience. It has become one of the best-selling and most widely distributed scientific works in the world.
Stephen continued his research in black holes and cosmology. His work on the expanding universe, the existence of black holes and cosmic singularities made him one of the most respected physicists in the world. His theoretical research has also expanded our understanding of the nature of time and space.
