Get to know some reflections of Stephen Hawking, the man who brought us closer to the stars, the man who theorized with flashes, black holes and the origin of the universe, the man who discovered the singularities or ruptures of space-time.
The man who made us fantasize about the possibility of time travel through black holes. The man who changed our vision of the universe. The man who has left us all admired, but of which we know so little. The man who recently left us.
- He was a man of science.
- A sage of our time.
- A person with a character that radiated strength and charisma.
- Began to stand out for his brilliant mind from a very young age.
- Seeing his life plagued by the diagnosis of a painful disease.
- Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Against all odds, Stephen Hawking survived this disease, making it an exception, a special case, when he was diagnosed at 21, during his time at Oxford, they did not believe that he would live more than two years, however, fortunately, for us and against all odds, his brilliant body and mind has continued to enlighten us for more than 50 years.
This undoubtedly makes Stephen Hawking an even more admirable figure, a figure who leaves a legacy to the world that goes beyond the knowledge he has generated as a theoretical physicist, astrophysicist, cosmologist and promoter of science.
Thinking about Stephen Hawking, we could ask each other a lot of questions. One of the most attractive and curious is “What would it be like to think like him?” Obviously, the answer to this question is impossible, but in return we can investigate and address its moral principles, its thoughts on life, about the world, and about the universe.
To do this, we have made a compilation of his most famous phrases, because we believe that giving transcendence, uniqueness and distinction to the thoughts he shared with the world will help us keep him always present. Is this arguably the best tribute we can pay to this thinker?and why not, star, who passed away recently.
Finally, we wanted to highlight a phrase Stephen once said: “Nothing can exist forever. “Perhaps in the transcendental sense, it is hard to believe that something will continue forever, but what is clear is that his legacy, his intellectual and vital heritage, will remain in the world for a long time.
Reader Note: We recommend that readers watch the film “The Theory of Everything,” which chronicles Stephen’s life from a different angle. In addition, it is interesting to approach his theories through books like “The Universe In Short,” George and the Secret of the Universe,” “A Brief History of Time” or any of his other informational productions, because they use language suitable for people who don’t have great knowledge of astrophysics.
