Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking, one of the greatest physicists ever, once warned that aliens "may not see us as any more valuable than we see bacteria."

The new model could explain how wormhole-like structures in black holes allow information to escape back into the Universe, potentially solving a long-standing paradox.

The black hole is stealing material from a companion star, in a process that could show how black holes get a kick from supernova explosions that form them.

Physicists tried for 16 years to find flaws in Albert Einstein's ground-breaking theory of general relativity, which is the best description of gravity we have.

Professor Xavier Calmet of the University of Sussex told Newsweek the findings ould mean black holes are "much more complicated and interesting than naively imagined."

A scene in the latest Pixar feature references some of the most influential people in history.

Since his arrest, photos have surfaced of the late Epstein and British socialite Maxwell with numerous high profile-celebrities and politicians.

The files were unveiled as part of the civil litigation against Maxwell who faces charges of aiding Epstein's sexual abuse of young girls.

The former NASA astronaut has told of a conversation he had with the renowned scientist.

The idea of wormholes was predicted by Einstein's theory of general relativity in 1916.

We cannot build a time machine today, but could we in the future?

The stark prediction is one of many outlined in the renowned theoretical physicist's new book.

The broadcast will "create a link" between Hawking's presence on Earth, his desire to visit space and his scientific explorations of the universe, his daughter said.

Astronomers will comb through millions of stars in the search.

Here's how to get tickets.

Hawking's family wanted "to support people going through a tough time."

"This is an enormous challenge," Hawking said in the film. "To leave Earth will take a global approach and everyone should join in."

Stephen Hawkin's burial site will pay homage to his contribution to science.

The fundamental laws of physics guarantee that every process that happens "forward in time" can also happen "backwards in time."

Hawking made four appearances on the show.

Hawking sought to unify the science of the incredibly large and the incredibly small.

Hawking was revered as much by other scientists as he was by the general public.

Marika Taylor, a professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Southampton, reminisces about her time spent studying under the late Stephen Hawking.

Charity deals with overwhelming demand as people find ways to pay tribute to scientist after death.

Bit by bit, ALS robs its victims of their ability to move, speak, eat, and breathe. But he inspired me to focus on what I can do, rather than what my body can no longer do.

Hawking was diagnosed with ALS in 1963 at the age of 21.

"Technology," Hawking wrote, was being allowed to drive "ever-increasing inequality."

"My goal," Hawking said, "is a complete understanding of the universe."

Hawking died on Tuesday at 76 years old.

Renowned atheist author Richard Dawkins claims that a combination of similar last names and naive news producers has confused him for the late Stephen Hawking.
