He didn’t let his physical limitations hinder his quest to answer “the big question: Where did the universe come from?” Stephen W. Hawking, the Cambridge University physicist and best-selling author who roamed the cosmos from a wheelchair, died early this morning at his home in Cambridge, England. He was 76. He will be best remembered for a discovery so strange that it might be expressed in the form of a Zen koan: When is a black hole not black? When it explodes. Nobody, including Dr. Hawking, believed it at first — that particles could be coming out of a black hole. “I wasn’t looking for them at all,” he recalled in an interview in 1978. “I merely tripped over them. I was rather annoyed.” His book “A Brief History of Time” made him a star beyond his field, and his penchant for dropping bon mots on subjects large and small made him an enduring pop culture figure. On imperfection: “Without imperfection, you or I would not exist.” On scientific discovery: “I wouldn’t compare it to sex, but it lasts longer.” And on taking risks: “I want to show that people need not be limited by physical handicaps as long as they are not disabled in spirit.” Visit the link in our profile to hear more from #StephenHawking, in his own words. @karstenmoran took this photo of the physicist at a press conference in Manhattan in April 2016.
