The much loved physicist Stephen Hawking passed away, in his home in Cambridge this morning, on Einstein's birthday. Coincidentially, also on the day of π (3.14). Hawking was one of the most important, if not the most important cosmologist of the 20th century. He is known for the theory that black holes emit radiation (called "Hawking" radiation), for being the first to propose a theory of cosmology explained by a union of the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics and for his characteristic sense of humour.
As a modest tribute to this great man, I would like to share one of my favourite discussion videos that features the three legends: Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking and Arthur C. Clarke, all of whom have as of today, passed away.
Enjoy!
I believe Stephen hawking was a mastermind. If you've read his books you'll know what I'm taking about. Farewell Mr. Hawkings
Resteemed...
Indeed, we lost a very smart man! Luckily we still have a few. Thanks for the resteem!
RIP Stephen Hawking. An absolute genius and someone who truly did what ever he could to help with mankind. The research and theories that he worked on will forever change how we view ourselves and the universe....and I wouldn't be surprised if he uploaded himself to the internet and is alive and well within the matrix! -Respect
RIP!
Esta Civilización a perdido uno de sus grandes genios!! las grandes naciones no deben obviar sus teorías sobre como preservar la especie, lo que dijo en sus últimas ponencias parece una película de ficción, pero yo conozco muchas de estas que se han vuelto realidad.
¡Cierto! ¡Necesitamos proteger nuestro planeta y evitar las calamidades de la guerra y la destrucción mutuamente asegurada!

El amigo Steve partio para comprobar la Teoría de los Agujeros Negros y la entropia que se genera.
Gracias por dedicarles este post.
