Stephen Hawking has gone :(

Heard this on the radio as I was getting ready. Gutted. RIP. :(
 
A truly remarkable man.

Doing all that he did AND having to live with Motor Neurone Disease. An inspiration to all.

RIP
 
Rest in peace.

Hope they recorded the whole series

World-renowned physicist Stephen Hawking is set to join the cast of Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy: Hexagonal Phase.
The cult classic is returning to Radio 4 in March to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Douglas Adams’s groundbreaking radio series. In episode one, Professor Hawking will play The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy Mk.II, a hugely intelligent and powerful being who might have been known on our planet as Professor Stephen Hawking.


:cool:
 
Such a shame, it's a big loss to the world :( He did incredibly well to achieve so much despite his illness, truly an inspiration to us all.
 
How on earth he lived to that age given his prognosis, I have no idea. On top of that, he just happens to have been one of the defining physicists of his time and managed to make huge contributions whilst severely disabled. Huge amount of respect for anyone that can do any of those things - to say it would be difficult is an incredible understatement. RIP.
