Stephen Hawking was one of the most gifted scientists.With that natural ability and intelligence,Hawking made himself different.Most people see him in his wheelchair,unable to move and using a computer to talk.Since he had a disease which made him lose the use of most of his muscles,his world became a world of thought.
Hawking was first known by people when he was still healthy enough to walk,as a graduate student in physics at Cambridge University in 1964.There were two main theories of how the universe began.The first was that the universe has no beginning or end.The other was that the universe began at a point in time and space.The biggest fan of the first theory was Hoyle,a professor at Cambridge.During the question and answer period after one of Hoyle's lectures to his students,Hawking stood up and said that Hoyle had made a mistake in his maths.Once the maths was corrected,it showed that the second theory was true.
So,what made Stephen Hawking great?Besides being smart,he was brave,though sometimes careless.He was willing to say what others were afraid to say and admit his mistakes.Besides,he was very determined.He never gave up easily.This helped him as a scientist,and helped him against his disease.All these made him one of the greatest thinkers of the 20th and 21st centuries.
