STEPHEN HAWKING - ABOUT UNIVERSE AND IMMORTALITY

The article is devoted to the philosophical comprehension of the Universe and immortality. Stephen Hawking suggested that diving into a black hole can't be a throw into another universe and lead to some kind of supernatural discoveries. According to him, he believes in the possibility of copying the human mind to an electronic medium, which, thus, can provide him with eternal life, but the scholar emphasizes that the biblical version of immortality is nothing more than a fairy tale. Stephen Hawking's life story was also told where he had signs of amyotrophic sclerosis at the age of twenty-one, which subsequently led to paralysis, and, according to the doctors, he had three years to live, but he remained alive and leads an active life: he teaches, he writes books, shoots films and is engaged in science. Based on the assumptions of theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, human immortality is still a mystery, the solution of which will not be achieved in the near future.
