DR Stephen Hawking (1942- )
Hawking is a British theoretical physicist.
He is best known for his theories about black holes, which are invisible bodies in space with strong gravitational forces.
He has shown that they give off particles and radiation until they explode and disappear.
Hawking is generally thought to have made some of the most important finds about gravity since Einstein's theory of general relativity.
He is currently working on combining gravity and a branch of physics known as quantum mechanics in a single theory that can explain the origin and structure of the universe.
He holds the post of lucasian professor of physics at Cambridge University,
a post Sir Isaac Newton once held. Hawking has suffered from an incurable disease of the nervous system since the 1960s.
