Stephen Hawking Goodbye to Earth
Stephen Hawking Goodbye to Earth
Kalishankar
Stephen William Hawking was an English physicist, cosmologist and
director of the Center for Theoretical Cosmology located inside the
University of Cambridge. His great works include the concept of black holes and Hawking radiation. The book "A Brief History of Time" written by him created a panic in the world of science. He was born on 7 January 1942 in Oxford Shire, UK.
At the age of 21, Hawking was diagnosed with a particular type of
disease, 'ALS', due to which his body gradually stopped working. His bid was also faltering. At that time, the doctors told that they would not be able to live beyond 2 years. But Hawking continued his research by proving this claim to be false. They used to express their words through computers and other devices. On March 14, 2014, at the age of 6, this great astronomy scientist said goodbye to the world. In the article presented, Prof. Various aspects of Stephen Hawking's life, his contributions and his greatness are described.
Stephen Hawking, the great scientist of the world, was born on 8
January 1942 in the city of Oxford in England to Frank Isabel Hawking
couple in a well educated family.
Another interesting thing in this context is that the death date of
another great scientist, Galileo Galley and the date of birth of Stephen
Hawking is the same. Another fact is that the birth date of the great scientist Albert Einstein and the death date of Stephen Hawking are one. Since childhood, Hawking was filled with immense intelligence that shocked people. Hawking was the adopted son of his father Frank and the eldest of his two sisters. His father was a doctor and mother was a homemaker. Stephen Hawking's intelligence can be gauged from the fact that in childhood people called him 'Einstein'. The desire to live despite being physically handicapped brought him to the world as a great man who has no match till date.
The great scientist Stephen William Hawking joined the ranks of great
scientists like Newton and Einstein even after suffering from motor
Neuron disease. There are very few people in today's society who have conquered their senses. The time of World War II was quite challenging to earn a living and his family moved to Oxford in search of a safe place. It is surprising to learn that Stephen, who became such a great scientist, his school life was not as excellent. He had a keen interest in mathematics since childhood. He was an average scorer in his class from the beginning, but enjoyed playing board games.
To solve mathematical equations in childhood, he made computers using
parts of old electronic devices with the help of some people. But his father wanted to make him a doctor.
Due to not having a mathematics subject at that time, he started his
studies with physics and later he chose the subject of cosmology,
keeping in mind his favorite subject, mathematics. He passed the Oxford University examination for his Ph.D. and started further studies. Prior to this, he studied at St. L. Benes School for 11 years.
In connection with his education, he was associated with Cambridge
University, California Institute of Technology and Perimeter Institute
for Theoretical Physics.
Hawking made his first marriage to his girlfriend Jane Wilde in 1985, which he divorced in 1955. His second marriage was in 1959 to Elaine Massen, who divorced him in 2007. His first wife Jane Wilde was very religious while Hawking always challenged the existence of God.
Due to this, Hawking was also criticized all over the world, but
Hawking went ahead on his discoveries and told the world that disability
is not from the mind.
Stephen Hawking was once 21 when he came to his home to holiday. He was getting down the ladder when he realized that he was unconscious and immediately fell down. He was taken to the doctor.
Initially, they all considered him to be an event due to weakness, but
after repeated occurrence he was taken to the big doctors where he came
to know that he is suffering from an unknown and never-ending disease
called 'Amiotropic Lateral'. Sclerosis (ALS) '.
In this disease, all the parts of the body gradually stop working and
in the end, due to the closing of the respiratory tract, the patient
dies of suffocation. At that time, the doctors said that Stephen Hawking would not be able to live more than two years and he would die soon.
But Hawking had a complete hold on his will power and he said that I
will live for two or twenty years and not for twenty-four years. At that time everyone got yes to console them. But today, after his death, the world believes that Hawking showed what he said. In the midst of his illness, he completed his PhD and married his girlfriend Jane Wilde. By then, the entire right side of the Hawking was damaged and they used to walk with the help of wood. Gradually, physical capacity began to decline and they started using Baisakhi regularly. He stopped giving lectures regularly and gradually his body became a living corpse.
But despite all these troubles, he ignored his attention and focused on his science world. He was given a permanent wheel chair which was technically well-equipped when the disease progressed. When everyone lost hope, Stephen Hawking began writing history on the basis of his unwavering faith and efforts. He took his disability and illness as a boon. In her words, "Before my illness was discovered, I was very bored with life." It seemed that nothing was worth doing. ”Despite all these circumstances, Hawking never gave up. Participated in public works and was constantly engaged in his research work.
He provided many important thought streams to the world and made his
great contribution in the field of astronomy, which is as follows- - Concept of Black Hole, Concept of Sahocking Radiation,
- His book 'A Brief History of Time', which has created panic in the world of science. In his own words, "Although I cannot walk and have to talk through a computer, I am free from my mind." He is a renowned British physicist, cosmologist, author and theoretical cosmologist at Cambridge University Was the research director of the center. Stephen Hawking is a name who, despite being physically challenged, has made himself the world's most unique scientist by virtue of his self-confidence, who has become the source of inspiration to not only amazing people but ordinary people in the world. He is also known as the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics. 90: Despite being handicapped, the whole world believes in his ability and self-confidence.
Stephen Hawking received various honors
Albert Einstein Award (1949), - Wolf Prize (1949),
- Prince of Asturias Awards (1979),
- Copley Medal (2006), S Presidential Medal of Freedom (2009),
- Special Basic Physics Award (2012),
- 12 honorary degrees
Three important aspects of life
A great cosmologist
He was a great scientist but science was not his profession, but he lived science every moment in his life. When he used to talk about scientific concepts, along with that he used to refute our superstitions and misconceptions.
The special thing about Hawking's life and personality was that he
tried to make scientific thinking a part of the common life of the
public mind. His efforts made him the most powerful scientific voice of the present time.
The special thing about this voice was that this voice did not come
from Hawking's mouth and came out of the speaker in his wheel chair. Like a normal human and scientist, he also made mistakes and confessed. They are also the best example of how a person who breaks blind beliefs should stay away from bigotry in his own life.
A popular scientist
There have been many popular leaders, actors, litterateurs in our history but very few popular scientists. To name a few among popular scientists, such as Newton, Archimedes, Einstein, Galileo, Edison etc. But Hakins has been the most popular scientist and the reason is that he was a very big communicator. He did not confine science only to research papers and seminars, but went about it among children and the public.
A very special thing about him was that it was his habit to keep
communicating and that too in the circumstances when nature had taken
away the most important system of communication from him.
Success story
There have been many people in the world who have achieved success in
adversity, but not a great person like Stephen Hawking who has suffered
from the handicapped Motar Neuron Disease since the age of 21 (where all
the conditions are coming out of the hands). Continually moving towards
success. It was for the courage of Stephen Hawking that in the remaining 55 years, he used the flag of high altitude. That is why Hawking remembers the world today not for his 21 years of life but for his disability of 55 years of life. Even Hawking himself admitted that his illness played a great role in his success. That is why it is said that no one, who accepts his deficiency as his quality, can stop it from being successful. That's why a lot can be learned from Stephen Hawking's life.
Stephen Hawking's India tour
Scientist Stephen Hawking came to India for the first time in the year 2001 and his visit was very memorable. During his visit to India, he said that Indians are very good in mathematics and physics. He stayed in India for 14 days and visited Delhi and Mumbai and the then President K.R. Had also met Narayanan. He also saw Qutub Minar and Jantar Mantar in Delhi. During his stay in Mumbai, he also addressed a seminar at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research Institute. During this time he was also awarded the first Sarojini Damodaran Fellowship. Hawking also gave many important lectures in the 5-day seminar. During his stay in India, he also celebrated his 59th birthday. Stephen Hawking: Highlights
- Stephen Hawking was born 300 years after the death of Galileo Galley, the father of modern science. Hawking believed that science is his destiny.
- Hawking had made his wheelchair extremely modern and fitted modern equipment in it. He approached Indian scientist and software engineer Arun Mehta to upgrade the wheelchair software.
- He had said that he does not fear death, rather it inspires to enjoy life more.
- Stephen Hawking flew in a specially designed aircraft in the non-gravitational field despite a disability in 2007. After this, he also claimed to get closer to his dream of flying in space.
- In a statement given in the year 2010, he had created a sensation by saying that within 200 years, the Earth will be destroyed. He said that the threat of increasing population, dwindling resources and the use of nuclear weapons is constantly hovering on the earth. If a human has to avoid it, then he has to make a home in space.
- While inaugurating the Artificial Research Center at the University of Cambridge in the year 2014, he said that it will help in eradication of technical poverty and diseases but will also bring waste in the form of automatic weapons.
- Not only in science, Stephen Hawking also took part in TV shows and serials.
- Stephen Hawking never wanted to keep his work a secret. He wanted the world to know more and more about the universe and its mysteries.

- It was only in 1979 that Hawking explained how black holes propagate heat due to quantum effects. At the age of 32, he became the youngest member of the Royal Society of Britain.
Black hole and Hawking radiation
Stephen Hawking spent much of his research on black holes and space-time theories.
He also published many papers in this regard, which led him to become a
big name in the scientific world and spread his fame all over the
world. His most famous discovery was when he proved that black holes also emit some amount of radiation.Earlier it was believed that nothing could get out of the black hole due to its powerful gravity. Today, the radiation emanating from a black hole is called Hawking radiation.
Stephen Hawking contributed to explain the Black Hole and Big Bag theory. Stephen Hawking was the first to develop the theory of understanding the universe. Stephen Hawking is best known for the fact that black holes emit radiation that can be detected by specific devices. His discovery made a detailed study of black holes. He has a special contribution in the field of cosmology, general relativity and quantum gravity (and especially black holes).
