我的偶像霍金
Stephen Hawking is considered the world's foremost living theoretical physicist. He's an expert on black holes whose stated intention is to unify quantum mechanics with Einstein's general theory of relativity, forming a single theory to explain the origin (and end) of the universe. Hawking, a professor of mathematics at Cambridge University, is the author of the best-selling book A Brief History of Time and something of a celebrity: he has made guest appearances on the TV shows Star Trek and The Simpsons. Hawking has suffered from ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also called Lou Gehrig's disease) since he was a young man and is confined to a wheelchair.
In 1974 Hawking calculated that black holes emit a form of energy now known as Hawking radiation. Since then he has analyzed the shape and fate of the universe in technical studies and popular books. Although Hawking has been afflicted with severe progressive muscle degeneration since the early 1960s, he manages with the use of a speech synthesizer to continue as Lucasian professor of mathematics at Cambridge University (since 1979), the chair once held by Isaac Newton.
In 1979 Hawking took the post of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge. According to Hawking's own site, "The chair was founded in 1663 with money left in the will of the Reverend Henry Lucas, who had been the Member of Parliament for the University. It was first held by Isaac Barrow, and then in 1663 by Isaac Newton."

史蒂芬霍金被認為是世界上最重要的活理論物理學家。他是一位黑洞專家，其目的是將量子力學與愛因斯坦的廣義相對論結合起來，形成一個解釋宇宙起源和終結的單一理論。霍金，一個在劍橋大學的數學教授，是暢銷書的一個時間和一個名人簡史作者：他客串電視劇星際旅行和辛普森。霍金患有ALS(肌萎縮性脊髓側索硬化癥，又稱Lou Gehrig病)是因為他是一個年輕人，坐輪椅。
在1974霍金計算黑洞發射一種能量現在被稱為霍金輻射。從那時起，他分析了宇宙的形狀和命運的技術研究和流行的書籍。盡管霍金患有嚴重的進行性肌肉變性自20世紀60年代初，他管理的一個語音合成器繼續在劍橋大學盧卡斯數學教授的使用(1979年)，曾為艾薩克·牛頓主席。
1979霍金曾在劍橋盧卡斯數學教授的職位。根據Hawking自己的網站，“主席成立于1663的錢留在Reverend Henry Lucas的意志，誰一直是議會成員的大學。這是第一次舉行的巴羅，然后在1663由艾薩克·牛頓。
