Stephen Hawking
(Oxford, January 8, 1942 – Cambridge, March 14, 2018)
As a young boy, Stephen Hawking already looked up at the stars and wondered how the universe worked. Although he was never the top of his class, his curiosity led him to Oxford and Cambridge, England's top universities. And that's how he discovered Hawking radiation, one of the most important scientific discoveries of the twentieth century.
