WHY EXPLORING SPACE MATTERS

Stephen Hawking

TEDxLondon

Should we be content with being cosmic couch potatoes? Professor Stephen Hawking thought not. As technology brings us ever closer to unlocking the secrets of Space we must continue to dream about seeing it for ourselves. Professor Stephen Hawking was one of the world’s best known scientists. He worked on the basic laws which govern the universe and published best-selling books including A Brief History of Time. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
