- He predicted the existence of mini-black holes at the time of the Big Bang. These tiny black holes would have been incredibly hot, shedding mass until they vanished - potentially ending their lives in a powerful explosion.

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, published in 1915, suggested the existence of black holes — an object whose gravitational pull is so intense that once something passes a region known as the event horizon, there's no escape. Over the years, the theory of black holes gained favour as further research supported their existence. In 1974...
In 2014, Hawking released a paper titled Information Preservation and Weather Forecasting for Black Holesin which he surprised the astrophysics community by suggesting black holes weren't so black after all. He challenged his initial theory from 1974 that suggested nothing could escape a black hole after crossing the event horizon. His new paper sa...
These days, the big bang theory is the widely accepted scientific explanation of the origin of our universe, but there was a time when the idea seemed preposterous. Even British astronomer Fred Hoyle, who coined the term in 1949, didn't believe the theory. In 1970, Hawking, along with fellow physicist Roger Penrose, suggested the universe began wit...
While Hawking's theories revolutionized the way physicists think about the universe, he never won a Nobel Prize because his theories haven't been proven. For example, even if energy isreleased from a black hole, its temperature would be so low it would be difficult to measure. 1. Stephen Hawking's PhD thesis goes online, crashes website 2. Hawking,...
