Stephen William Hawking CH CBE FRS FRSA (/ˈstiːvən ˈhɔːkɪŋ/ ( listen); born 8 January 1942) is an English theoretical physicist, cosmologist, author and Director of Research at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmologywithin the University of Cambridge.[14][15] His scientific works include a collaboration with Roger Penrose on gravitational singularity theorems in the framework of general relativity and the theoretical prediction that black holes emit radiation, often called Hawking radiation. Hawking was the first to set out a theory of cosmology explained by a union of the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. He is a vigorous supporter of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics.[16][17]

Answer:

Stephen William Hawking CH CBE FRS FRSA was an English theoretical physicist, cosmologist, and author who served as the Center for Theoretical Cosmology's director of research at the time of his passing (8 January 1942 – 14 March 2018).

Explanation:

  • He is intelligent, humorous, and tenacious. Additionally, Stephen has a tendency to be obstinate, preferring to struggle on his own rather than seek assistance. And despite the difficulties he has encountered, he never loses hope. There should be no restrictions on human activity, he asserts. We are all unique. There is always something you can accomplish and succeed at, no matter how horrible life may appear. Hope exists as long as there is life.
  • In general, Stephen aspires to learn more and gain a better understanding of the world. Stephen is typically self-assured, analytical, and ambitious as an INTJ. Stephen is probably an independent thinker who is interested in finding solutions to global issues.

Thus this is the answer.
