I just learned a few minutes ago that famed physicist Stephen Hawking has died at the age of 76. I admit that I'm not well versed in science or physics, and never read any of his work, but I always admired Mr. Hawking for the grace and dignity he possessed, and the strength to live a life with a disease that most of us, myself included, would probably have given in to.

Stephen died today.
Terrible news, I must say.
Ever in our hearts, he will stay.
Physics, he made many breakthroughs..
Hawking, his last name was.
Early in the morning, he peacefully went.
Never forget, the great science man.

He lived a good life, they would say.
A life worth living, a life well lived.
With a final breath, he left his body.
Keeping in mind that his mind is free.
I just wanted to share this with the world.
Not much, but a poem for the lost

So Stephen Hawking is dead. I mean, holy shit. out of all the deaths of well known people in the last three years, this has to be the most impactful yet. Very few people reach a legendary status like that man did, up there with Isaac Newton and Albert Einstien. RIP Stephen, you shall be missed. Oh so very greatly.

Stephen Hawking dead at 76.

He is with the angels now.

Stephen Hawking, who I believe no further elaboration on his many contributions to not only science, but getting the ever fickle public to actually care about science, sadly passed away today at age 76.

No word yet (from what I've heard at least) on the cause of death... but given the horrid degenerative disease he'd been fighting near all his life, I doubt we'll get any shocks once its made public.

He was 76 years old. It's amazing how he survived his disease long enough to inspire the world with his contributions to science and his sense of humour.

You'll be greatly missed, professor. Rest in peace.

For without him our idea on the nature of the universe would be so much smaller.

I have know for days of his passing, but I wanted everyone else to make their posts first. I wanted my voice to be heard, so I wanted not to be lost in the noise.
