ABSTRACT AUTEUR

-

Black holes emit radiation. Physicist Stephen Hawking discovered the phenomenon in 1974 – not by means of a telescope, but by using his brain. He spotted an extremely abstract underlying truth of already known laws of physics. His gifts were probably due to the fact that just like other clever scientists, he was able to seriously step up the activity of specific areas of the brain, which have to do with logic and with visual and mathematic­al intelligen­ce.
