World renowned scientist Stephen Hawking has died at the age of 76, a spokesperson for his family has said.

Hawking’s children, Lucy, Robert and Tim informed that he passed away at his home in the early hours of Wednesday. The statement released by them said,

“We are deeply saddened that our beloved father passed away today. He was a great scientist and an extraordinary man whose work and legacy will live on for many years. His courage and persistence with his brilliance and humour inspired people across the world. He once said, ‘It would not be much of a universe if it wasn’t home to the people you love.’”

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 was a vigorous supporter of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics.
