March 14th is Stephen Hawking's death anniversary date. Not only his knowledge but also his life surprised medical doctors and all of us. He was diagnosed with a neurological disease and expected to survive only another six months, but he surprised everyone by living many more decades. He even married and divorced twice, and had children. He was the father of three children.
His research and findings on Albert Einstein's theories of relativity and quantum physics are important milestones in modern astrophysics, particularly regarding black holes.
He wrote a book on modern astrophysics, 'A Brief History of Time,' which achieved tremendous success and has been published in many editions. To date, it has sold more than 10 million copies.
The British English movie 'The Theory of Everything,' which was based on his first wife Jane Hawking's book describing her life with Stephen Hawking, received the Best Actor Oscar award.
With his physical challenges, though he couldn't walk and talk, he was able to overcome those obstacles and achieve success in his life. In fact, his life and scientific achievements were unbelievable and inspiring.
