//...has come to be thought of as one of the greatest minds in physics since Albert Einstein. In his own words: “My goal is simple. It is complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all”.//

Traditional dichotomy; what's the common currency of the "hows" and the "whys"?

Science is certainly competent to explore (and answer) the "why?" in the "by what mechanism...?" sense, but the "complete understanding...why it exists at all" is possibly, if not necessarily, outside the purview of science.

Possibly, ventusti. It might all just be a big accident, but while it's here we might as well make the best of it.

Have you read any of his books? I bought one for my dad and had a quick look through it. I might borrow it back and have a proper read.

There's little doubt that I am where I am today because of Hawking. His book, The Universe in a Nutshell, was what inspired me finally to study physics and maths as a career.

I wish I had taken my chances to tell him so. He will be missed.
