ADSactly Homage - RIP Stephen Hawking
One of the biggest minds of our times has passed away on March 14th. The world's combined IQ dropped by staggering 160 points. Not only his intelligence - a true force of nature - was impressive, but also the whole man, his focus, his life.
There is a saying associated to Voltaire:
"Judge a man by his questions rather than by his answers."
Stephen Hawking knew how to ask the right questions. Some of us may remember where knowing an answer of which the question was forgotten leads to. The number 42 comes to mind for some. (For those who are not familiar with Douglas Adams "The Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy": The Supercomputer "Deep Thought" gave this answer, after being asked the answer on Life, the Universe, and Everything)
Another big mind, Albert Einstein once phrased this task with following words:
"If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on the solution, I would spend the first 55 minutes determining the proper question to ask… for once I know the proper question, I could solve the problem in less than five minutes."
This sums up the life of Stephen Hawking in an impressive way. He was constantly living his life under this kind of time pressure, never knowing if and when it could be at an end, so he had to perfect his way of asking proper questions.
If you have some time, I strongly suggest watching Stephen Hawking asking the proper questions and giving answers to them, as clear and bold as only few other man were capable of. (Find a link to his infamous TED talk here)
Some Private Coincidential Background History
Only 2 weeks ago I decided to buy and read some of the books by Stephen Hawking. Because it has become a habit of mine, to regularly fill the holes in my education, since I found the Steem platform.
After reading the first few chapters, I was already impressed by the ease Hawkings was able to find words explaining the most complex of matters. It would be proposterous to claim, that I was able to grasp every idea he was discussing, but still I was able to follow his thoughts.
Until Sunday, I had no time to continue reading, but was reminded of it in the strangest way:
I was travelling home from a visit to my parents, when I spotted a bird of prey sitting on the guardrail during a minor traffic jam. I tried to take a picture with my phone, thinking about what kind of bird this could be. I wasn't sure if it was a falcon or a hawk.
Later at home, the picture I took turned out to be garbage, the bird was completely blurred, almost transcendend: A falcon... maybe the king of hawks - the Hawk-king was almost gone! I thought to myself that I really have to return to reading that book. Only two days later Stephen Hawking died.
Back To Stephen Hawking:
There is not much need for digging in the past to find out facts about Stephen Hawking. There is Wikipedia and there are hundreds of articles posted about him since his death on March 14th - and surely even more before that.
But there is something we can do - we can try to do what he did:
Think
I think noone ever came closer to the answer to the question:
What if there is nothing left of you, but your mind?
If I imagine being locked in a constricted and limited body with an unfathomable powerful mind, then I have to realize that this is in fact the case - for each of us calling ourselves human: Our bodies may be limited, but our minds are unlimited (no matter how stupid we are at times), only less extremely than in the case of Stephen Hawking. There is soo much going on in our heads, that we hardly are able to get it straight for ourselves and even less for our fellow humans. If we learn to overcome our limitations, we learn what it really means to be human.
What can we learn from his life?
He learned about his disease at the age of 21, he was told he had only a few years left at best. He lived for another 55 years, became a husband, a father, a grandfather, a bestselling author, all while loosing his ability to walk and to speak. He still managed to find ways to be heard, to get along, to be useful and even held the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics from 1979 until 2009, the probably most prestigious "chair" in sience, that once was held by Isaac Newton. Why he succeded? He never ever he gave up despite all his limitations!
Try, Fail, Adjust, Repeat!
Thank you Stephen, for giving us a glimpse of how we could live our lives, and even if you didn't believe that there is anything after death, I like the idea and the belief that you are now in a less limited condition and able to see one of the few things that have been denied to you:
Seeing the world from the outside, being in space, perhaps finding the answer to so many questions, you have well phrased and thought about.
Rest In Peace!
Let us remain silent for a while and listen to the mastermind, whose words even found their way into modern pop music: Pink Floyd "Keep talking" (2009)
Thank you for reading!

Stephen Hawking was one of the brightest stars in cosmology, who awed both scientists and the general public with his exemplary works in the field of theoretical physics, cosmology, black holes,etc.
It still seems unreal and unbelievable that he is no more. In the words of Neil deGrasse Tyson -
“His passing has left an intellectual vacuum in his wake. But it’s not empty. Think of it as a kind of vacuum energy permeating the fabric of spacetime that defies measure.”
I didn't know much about the magnificence of this personality before I read his book 'The Theory of Everything’ in which he explained the complexity of universe, black holes, singularity, in a subtle,witty and simpler way to the general public from a scratch without filling it with difficult jargons. Hia perception of time excited me.
They will remember him as a man confined to a wheelchair after being afflicted with a “neuromuscular disease but still ascended to the boundaries of universe and beyond” and is trying to unlock the mysteries of the universe. He was a inspiration from them when it came to physics,astronomy,etc.
He came from the stars.Lived as a star. Went back to the star. Stephen Hawking don't die.They just move from one star to another.
But any science or especially space enthusiast who has spent some time exploring and studying about the universe will feel it as a tremendous loss to the cosmo-world who will be deeply anguished today.
Some look upon him as the Einstein of the generation. Our knowledge of the world and the universe would be so much less if it weren’t for Hawking's. He understood the universe, black holes,time very well in a nutshell. He was a true legend in himself.
“I’m not afraid of death, but I’m in no hurry to die. I have so much I want to do first” -Stephen Hawkings
“The enemy of Knowledge is not ignorance,it is the ILLUSION of knowledge.”

What a terrific memorial to a unique individual. Very well done indeed.
2 things for me. 1: Hawking made some mistakes. He never ducked them, he never minimized them. He owned them. That's the piece that signifies the man to me.
The other is much more personal. One of my best friends ever was diagnosis to dead of ALS in two years. I always sort of resented that Hawking got so much time with it and Ross so little. Sad, huh?
Thanks for a terrific post. Rip Steven Hawking. Your mark was mighty.

I completely relate. While I am grateful that Hawking's will to live was so immense that he was able to withstand the ALS for decades, I lost a dear friend to it, roughly three years after he was diagnosed.
It is a terrible wasting disease, wretched both for the patient and his or her loved ones, and incredibly painful to watch the steady ongoing decline.
RIP to Professor Stephen Hawking, your friend Ross, and my friend Gary.

His name is known throughout the world. In times of my studies of Astrophysics I read about works of this remarkable man. I recommend (at least for the sake of diversity and common development) read at least one book by Stephen. This is a very interesting and informative for people at any age.
If you read about Steven Hawking more closely and explore his life then you will understand that this was a very determined and talented man. Being chained to the Chair he could do much more to science than those people who have more opportunities.
Stephen Hawking is a direct proof that nothing is impossible. He proved to the whole world that the power of thought and the power of the human mind is able to change the world.
After his death the world has lost one remarkable person and science lost one ingenious mind.
I recommend everyone to familiarize themselves with the books this person and show documentary films about his research. You can see artistic biopic. "The Theory of Everything"

An amazing man, whom has accomplished so much even with his debilitating condition. Many would have given up and died a long time ago.... but not Steven Hawkins. He often admits, it was his condition that allows him to out think other scientists.
After falling while ice skating during his first year as a grad student at Cambridge University, Hawking was told he he had the degenerative motor neuron disease Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and had only 2 1/2 years to live. Obviously that prognosis was light years off, but it seems early onset of the disease was a blessing in disguise, of sorts. Most ALS patients are diagnosed in their mid-50s and live another two to five years, but those diagnosed earlier tend to have a slower-progressing form of the disease. Furthermore, the loss of motor skills forced the burgeoning cosmologist to become more creative. "By losing the finer dexterity of my hands, I was forced to travel through the universe in my mind and try to visualize the ways in which it worked," he later noted.

"We are each free to believe what we want and it is my view that the simplest explanation is there is no God. No one created the universe and no one directs our fate. This leads me to a profound realisation. There is probably no heaven, and no afterlife either." Stephen Hawking made this quote so IMHO Rest In Peace is a bit out of the question.

Cool guy, managed to have 3 kids and leave a long lasting impact in academia despite his ALS... his atheism is irrelevant to his accomplishments and character, he was just a bright individual who refused to give up, inspiring!

An inspiration to us all, he will sorely be missed! I'll never forget his quote, "Although I cannot move and I have to speak through a computer, in my mind I am free." Free to explore he did.
