Yesterday,
as most of you might know, Stephen William Hawking passed away at the age of
76, leaving an un-fillable hole in the science community. At the age of 21, he
was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease which from that point he had only 2
years to live. But he astonished everyone by living a further 55 years of a
famous career.
Hawking
gained popularity and is most known for his animatronic voice and his theories.
He has changed the world of Science and how we understand physics. During his
life, he has inspired a lot of young students and this will continue as his
memory lives on. Mr Hawking has also changed the minds of NASA, Obama, The
Pope, Prince Phillip and The Queen on the interests of Physics. His many
predictions have gathered a crowd as he stared in the Simpsons and The Big Bang
Theory.
Here is our
reporter Ellis Parr speaking on the subject to our very valued Physics teacher,
Mr Daly.
Bravery is
yet another quality that he has also shown a lot of, as he turned down a knight
hood because he disagreed with the Government on funding for Science.
He has no boundaries
for his theoretical discoveries, there is still things to be discovered but he
has for sure opened the eyes of Scientists all around the world.
