Newly-weds Stephen Hawking and Jane Wilde poses for a photograph on the day of their wedding, in July of 1965. Hawking, who died in March 2018, was diagnosed in 1963 with an early on-set, slow-progressing form of motor neurone disease, also known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease, which gradually paralyzed him, and eventually impaired his speech as well. He was known for his discovery concerning black holes, called the Hawking Radiation, and also his numerous awards and accolades, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Albert Einstein Award (twice).
