Answer:
One of the greatest living minds on the planet does not need an introduction. Stephen hawking stands among the most famous people with disabilities who have changed the world with their life’s work. He is a theoretical physicist and cosmologist. His work involves black holes, gravitational synergy theorems, quantum mechanics and a bunch of other things that I need another lifetime to understand.
He has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) which gradually paralyzes the whole body over the years. With a computer and speech generating device he is able to communicate with people. He has control over his cheek muscle which helps him to communicate. He is a prominent scientist who has greatly contributed to the theory of black holes. If he can do it, so you every disabled person.

Answer:
Stephen Hawking was a great physicist, author and Director of Research at Centre for Theoretical Cosmology. He worked with another scientist, Penrose on gravitational theorems. He predicted that black holes emitted radiations. He also authored a book— ‘A Brief History of Time’, which was on the British Sunday Times bestsellers list for 237 weeks, making a record. – Defeating the Odds
And he achieved all this and more, notwithstanding that he is almost fully paralysed and communicates through a speech-generating device.
He was born on 8th January 1942 to Frank and Isobel Hawking in England. They lived in High Gate, but as London was under siege those days, his mother went to Oxford to give birth to him. He has two younger sisters, Philippa and Mary and an adopted brother, Edward. His father wanted him to attend West Minster School, but Hawking was ill on the day of the scholarship exam. His family couldn’t afford that school without a scholarship, so he had to remain at St Alban's School.
He did his BA from the University of Oxford and doctorate from Cambridge. At the age of 21 years, his motor neuron disease was diagnosed. Doctors told him that he would live for only two years. He became depressed. He got engaged to Jane Wilde and returned to his work with renewed energy.
Soon after 1970, Hawking, Bardeen and Carter proposed the four laws of black hole mechanics. In 1974, he showed that black holes emit radiation, now known as Hawking radiations. The same year, he was inducted as a fellow of the Royal Society, one of the youngest to be honoured.
Several buildings are named after him. He has successfully guided 39 PhD students. He is a living example of sheer grit and courage to beat one’s a physical illness. He showed us that inner motivation and the zeal to excel can make the impossible possible. He rightly says :
“We are all different, but we share the same human spirit.
Perhaps it’s human nature that we adapt — and survive.”
