From the prophecy master Nostradamus to the Balkan Baba Wanga, to the Mayan 2012 prophecy and Mars Boy, as well as the Japanese futurist with multiple prophecies claiming to be from the future people, it seems that no one can be and scientists to ride on the edge of the Stephen Hawking is definitely an alternative because he is not the same as those so-called prophets, and he is not a godly man!
He is a famous British theoretical physicist, cosmologist and writer, and served as director of the Center for Theoretical Cosmology at the University of Cambridge before his death, in addition to the Singularity Theorem, which he also proposed with the Nobel Prize laureate Penrose, from 1979 to 2009, Hawking is the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, and was ranked among the 100 greatest Britons by the BBC in 2002. The BBC's "100 Greatest Britons" in 2002, where he was ranked 25th!
All of these titles are not a random can get, one of the most hardcore is a theoretical physicist and professor of mathematics, these two positions do not have a high IQ, deep academic attainments is impossible to get, so Stephen Hawking is undoubtedly not crazy, more is not a magician, he is first of all a scientist!
But it is clear that Stephen Hawking is a prophet, in public or non-public occasions, Stephen Hawking said you can not count the prophecy, which has Stephen Hawking "in person" said, there are journalists relayed, of course, there are many in the name of Stephen Hawking to sell their own medicine of various media writers, Stephen Hawking has never been distinguishable, of course, Stephen Hawking has its own
Hawking has his own difficulties, he has to keep his own heat!
Stephen Hawking Suffers from a rare early onset and slow progression of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly known as Alzheimer's disease (ALS), since 1963, Stephen Hawking has been diagnosed, when the doctor said that he could only live for 2 years, but Stephen Hawking lived, just from the beginning of the crutches, then a wheelchair, and then later immobilized, and even talk is not good, to 2008, the last to move the three fingers also stopped. of the three fingers also stopped swinging, only the face muscles can move.
But Hawking still wrote the best-selling "A Brief History of Time", "The Universe in a Fruit Shell", "The Grand Design", etc., royalties for him to bring a generous income, but he also has a huge medical team and the Hawking family's expenses, living Hawking must make money every day, and of course, he will not let go of every opportunity to make money.
Stephen Hawking has a lot of reliable or unreliable prophecies, if you count the various assumptions in his popular science books, then the prophecies are even more, but for all of you really care about the prophecies are about the following:
About these prophecies, some of them are fabricated, and some of them are hearsay, and some of them are predicted by the real Stephen Hawking, for example, leaving the Earth, the Earth into a blazing fireball, Earth's devastating blow, Hawking did say these kinds of prophecies!
The purpose of Hawking's prophecies is not like the "Boys from Mars", but the Earth is facing a real threat, such as global warming, the Earth may be hit by an asteroid, the human race must emigrate to Mars to maintain civilization back up, etc., but also a scientist for the advice of mankind, right?
In addition to the folk rumors of Hawking's prophecy, there are "official" Hawking's prophecy:
The theory of black holes may be general relativity prophecy, the Swastika counted out the collapse into a black hole of the Swastika radius, and Hawking from the theory of the completion of the process of collapsing into a singularity, so Hawking said So Hawking said "black holes do not exist" is really shocking enough, but his theory of black hole evaporation is even more shocking, because the black hole "evaporated".
Whether artificial intelligence will end humanity we don't know, but the reality of many sci-fi movies could indeed happen, but what happens when AI starts being used in homes around the world? This is perfectly illustrated in I, Robot, so Stephen Hawking is no alarmist.
The danger of human contact with aliens is not really a prophecy, it was discussed after Professor Drake used the Arecibo telescope to send signals to the M13 globular cluster, and Liu Cixin's Three Bodies had a reference to the Dark Forest, so it's not really an original prophecy by Hawking, but he did warn about it. He did warn about it.
Migrate to an alien planet within a thousand years, because Earth is too dangerous to put your eggs in one basket!
The non-existence of heaven indicates that Hawking does not believe in the soul, nor in the afterlife, the expression of the true feelings of the materialistic scientist; back in the 1980s, Hawking and his wife, Jayne Wilder, had a bitter conflict because of their religious beliefs!
Jayne Wilder was a devout Christian, while Hawking was rationalizing as a scientist, so the two inevitably clashed, which was a major cause of their subsequent divorce!
Stephen Hawking from rejecting aliens to actively searching for aliens
Stephen Hawking had organized a dinner party without informing anyone, because he feasted on the future people, so the next day of the feast was only announced by the media, of course, for such a banquet is unlikely that anyone will come to participate in the Hawking believes that the future people are either extinct or do not have the technology of time travel, but the problem is two, a Is that people don't bother to come to the banquet? The other, of course, is that Hawking is in favor of time travel in A Brief History of Time.
Another interesting event is that Hawking was again and again strongly opposed to contacting aliens, but he nevertheless led the Breakthrough-Listening program under the auspices of Russian billionaire Yuri Milner back in 2016, which is two programs, Breakthrough is to the use of laser propulsion technology to launch probes to the planet Proxima, accelerated to 10% of the speed of light, will be reached within a few decades Proxima.
The other is the Listen program, which organizes radio telescopes around the world to listen to the radio or laser signals that may be emitted from a million star systems in the all-sky region to distinguish whether there are signals of civilization, which is a continuation of the SETI program to search for aliens
It seems that scientists have a magical obsession with searching for aliens, even Stephen Hawking, who repeatedly warned of aliens destroying the human race, is not exempt from that obsession. The first time I saw this was when I was a student at the University of California at Berkeley.
A very interesting question, because Tesla had so many amazing inventions, such as the Wodenkrieg Tower, which led to the Tunguska explosion, and the radio **** vibration detection technology that detected the solar system's crust, and even more esoteric Tesla's Ghost Radio, and also rumors of Tesla-developed UFOs, etc.
But in fact, the search for aliens has been a constant obsession.
But in fact, all of this, in addition to the "ghost" radio is really Tesla's invention, the other is the Minke people crowned to Tesla, he never admitted this, of course, can not admit, because everyone rumors when Tesla has died more than half a century.
Tesla was indeed a great inventor, mechanical and electrical engineer, etc., and a recognized promoter of the commercialization of electricity, and one of the inventors of the radio, and one of the greatest electrical engineers in the United States, of which the improved alternating current and alternating current motor, and the invention of the Tesla Coil, etc., are the most famous!
But "ghost radio" is a nonsense, it is just an oscillating circuit that drifts excessively, including the very popular modern ghost radios that also have this problem, in short, there are some similar to frequency hopping receiver equipment, but it is cluttered, and there is no corresponding transmitter, so you can receive only snippets of normal broadcasting, but it's a hodgepodge of channels that don't make any sense at all!
Extended reading: Hawking and Tesla, who really contributed the most?
This is an unclear question, a theoretical physicist, an inventor, if you want to say science, then undoubtedly Stephen Hawking, if you say that the direct contribution to society, then it must be Tesla, to see whose contribution to the big to differentiate between the angle, of course, in the eyes of the "general public", Tesla's tall and glorious! The image of Tesla is unparalleled!
