Stephen Hawking’s 80th birthday marked by Google with animated doodle, physicist’s voice narration

Stephen Hawking’s 80th birthday is being celebrated by Google with a special animated Doodle. It features a two-and-a-half minute video with the computer-generated physicist’s own voice, describing his contributions to the universe and illustrating life’s battle with its afflicted health. he – neurodegenerative disease. With his famous views on black holes and the Big Bang, Stephen Hawking is the most recognizable scientist of our time and has an iconic status. In addition to his contributions to modern physics, his best-selling books have made the field widely accessible to millions of readers around the globe.

Google created a new Doodle to honor the British cosmologist and shared a glimpse of his journey through a post. Clicking on the Doddle will take the user to the post. Stephen William Hawking was born in 1942 in Oxford, England. The video goes on to show how to uncover the biggest mysteries of the universe despite being diagnosed with a neurodegenerative disease at the age of 21.

In 1965, Hawking defended his doctoral thesis at Cambridge University, “Properties of Extended Universities”, presenting the revolutionary theory that space and time originate from a singularity, a single point. point that is both extremely small and dense, best known today as the main feature. of black holes. Hawking then began his career as a researcher at Cambridge’s Gonville and Caius Colleges.

Hawking in 1974 discovered that particles can escape from black holes. This theory, known as Hawking radiation, is considered his most important contribution to physics. In 1979, Hawking’s work on black holes prompted Cambridge to appoint him Lucasian Professor of Mathematics, a position held by Isaac Newton in 1669. Hawking’s doctoral thesis was published in 2017. on a Cambridge University website, which crashed due to massive traffic. He died at the age of 76 in 2018.

The Google Doodle illustrated by artist Matthew Cruickshank, and the tech giant has confirmed that Stephen Hawking’s voice was created and used in the Doodle with the approval of the Hawking family.
