Famed Physicist Stephen Hawking Joins Facebookby Tanya Lewis, Staff Writer | October 24, 2014
World-renowned physicist and author Stephen Hawking has joined Facebook.
Hawking became a member of the popular social networking site on Oct. 7, just weeks before the upcoming release of "The Theory of Everything," a biographical film about Hawking's relationship with his first wife Jane. The film will premiere in the United States on Nov. 7.
Hawking, who suffers from a motor neuron disease related to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is best known for his work on gravitational singularities and black hole radiation.

Here's a recent quote by Stephen himself on his page: Stephen Hawking October 24 I have always wondered what makes the universe exist. Time and space may forever be a mystery, but that has not stopped my pursuit. Our connections to one another have grown infinitely and now that I have the chance, I’m eager to share this journey with you. Be curious, I know I will forever be.
Welcome, and thank you for visiting my Facebook Page. -SH

Our connections have truly grown with the Internet! There a woman who's 104 on Facebook. I couldn't "friend" her because she had used up her allotment of space for friends. So sent her a message - AND SHE RESPONDED. I don't know about you, but that's plum amazing to me!!
