    Stephen Hawking was an English theoretical physicist known for his work on black holes and relativity. He was born in 1942 in Oxford, England and grew up interested in science due to his father's work as a biologist and his mother's as a medical secretary. Hawking discovered that black holes emit radiation that can be detected, allowing for the detailed study of black holes. He was diagnosed with ALS and overcame expectations to live over 50 more years and produce seminal scientific works.
