What exactly did he contribute, /sci/? Serious question, visitor from other boards here.
His theories opened new doors for astrology, especially in blackholes. Nowadays he's just getting paranoid about AI, as he thinks his wheelchair is gonna stab him in the back.

I'm pretty sure almost all of his work are various theories on black holes.

nothing. feyngold and ainsteyn are the only reputable physicists/chemists.

GTFO OF /SCI.

He contributed to the Inter universal Tech-mühle theory. He was one of many. It was not invented by our civilization, nor those that came before us. It has been improved upon and passed down to each subsequent species, yet it has never been completed.

The chair is Stewen Hawking. It killed him years ago and now its just pretending to be him.

Surprise, surprise.

He wrote a bunch of influential papers on electric wheelchair theory

Legend has it that he gained insight of black holes as he watched the wheels of his chair spinning

He's the wheelchair meme guy. We must like him because TV tells us to do so. Who cares about his scientific contributions?

>Hawking and Mlodinow, in the chapter of their book called “The Theory of Everything,” quote Albert Einstein: “The most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible.” In response, Hawking and Mlodinow offer this crashing banality: “The universe is comprehensible because it is governed by scientific laws; that is to say, its behavior can be modeled.” Later, the authors invite us to give ourselves a collective pat on the back: “The fact that we human beings — who are ourselves mere collections of fundamental particles of nature — have been able to come this close to an understanding of the laws governing us and our universe is a great triumph.” Great triumph or no, none of this addresses Einstein’s paradox, because no explanation is offered as to why our universe is “governed by scientific laws.”

E. is right indeed. The gap has widened in a century. hawking is just like the dawkins of physics
people think that the foremost questions in science is what is space, time, temperature, quarks and so on. No, the sole crucial and urgent question is why the humanity is able to predict [more or less] through induction , itself formalized via the rules of inferences.
[and also, why the humanity believes that to offer some mechanical model is knowledge about the world]
