Stephen Hawking's achievements encompassed many spheres.

As a theoretical scientist he made substantial advancements in humanity's understanding of the universe, some elements of which have been supported by later experimental research.

As a science writer he made some of the most difficult concepts in science accessible. I loved the story I heard of a Russian scientist in the same field who on a plane journey was sat next to someone reading "A Brief History of Time". He started chatting to his fellow passenger about the book and he was asked whether he had read it. He said that he had but found Chaper 8 on Chaos Theory* rather difficult to follow. "Let me explain it to you" the non scientist commenced...

As a disabled person he lifted exponentially the expectations and understanding of what people with disabilities could achieve.

And as a human being he had a sense of fun - as his appearances on "Thev Simpsons" and "The Big Bang Theory" show.

He lead an incredible life and one that is a true inspiration. Our mourning for his loss is only tempered by our admiration for his many achievements during his life. My condolences to his friends and family.

S.x.

* I may have got the chapter and subject wrong but the core of the anecdote remains.

Yeah, he died like 6+ hours ago. If you're not joking that is, it's quite a shame I would say.

I would say it's a miracle he lived this long considering what he was suffering from.
