Stephen Hawking Talks About Space


By Anton Martinez

Professor Hawking is a man with traits of leaderships. He is a leader that can overcome difculties, can achieve goals and have great impact on our society. He is the man who contributed the most to black holes and the one to solve mysteries of universe that lurked us for ages. However, even the greatest scientist of our age can make mistakes. He has recently lost a bet with Kip Thorne, about black holes having only one entrance and no exit at all. The bet

was taken place in 1997 and was lost by Professor Hawking in 2004. By loosing the bet, Professor Hawking was able to learn more about space and how it works. Hawking states It is great to solve a problem that has been troubling me for 30 years, and is glad to nally solve what has been troubling him for 30 years.

people afraid of the dark. Many religious groups were angry at the man because he was publicly announcing that Heaven did not exist. Also, just a year before that, he openly claimed that God was not necessary to create the universe.

the Universe exists, why we exist. This statement also has angered many religious people as well. However, despite those criticisms, Professor Hawking was able to get through though times and be successful.
The Hawking Radiation

Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist. ! -Stephen

In 1974, an interesting activity in space caught Professor Hawkings eyes. He noticed black holes emit electromagnetic radiation with a spectrum. A simple version of the Hawking Radiation works like this: particle-antiparticle pairs are constantly being produced and rapidly disappear (through annihilation). Antiparticles are a subatomic particle having the same mass as a given particle but opposite relating to Hawking Radiation. For example, black hole evaporation through Hawking Radiation seems to mean information is lost forever. However, it violates the quantum mechanics and General Relativity-the two most successful

Hawking he is very successful at this point, he commits and keeps on exploring and questioning the universe. Is anyone out there other than us? Are they watching on us? Are they preparing an invasion? Those are some

questions that Professor Hawking electric or magnetic properties. It theories in physics and there is no still asks until to this day. answer to resolve these issues. also turned out that the smaller the mass a black hole has, the faster it will lose mass due to Hawking Radiation. However, there is also some problems Stephen Hawking is one of the greatest and brightest minded person in the 21st century.While [Anton Martinez, Science Daily]
