Having a unique and brilliant mind, Professor Stephen Hawking knew exactly what he wanted written on his tombstone.
Of course, as a theoretical physicist and a genius whom we may not yet have, it is impossible to describe in words.
And that's one more reason why Cambridge's professor's tomb has the most important equation of his life carved into it.
Known as the Hawking Way Equation or Beckenstein this formula determines the greatest discovery of his career.

Four decades ago, Hawking rocked the space world, showing how instead of being completely black, black holes actually shine.
This splendor is now known as the “Hawking” This was a discovery that changed the way scientists would see the universe forever.
Hawking showed how black holes release radiation and particles, before they explode and disappear. He realized that black holes create radiation, losing their mass slowly.
