Grand Opening of the Stephen Hawking Centre at Perimeter Institute
At the request of Title Entertainment Canada, Skaramoosh filmed with Prof. Stephen Hawking to mark the opening of the Stephen Hawking Centre at Perimeter Institute. The professor’s speech concluded with thanks to all those involved with the new facility, “It is a tremendous honour to have this expansion of the Perimeter Institute named for me. Theoretical physics is the most basic and powerful science, responsible for essentially every modern technology. Indeed, history shows us that today’s theoretical physics is tomorrow’s technology. It is easy to feel awed by the discoveries of Newton, Maxwell, Einstein and others. To go beyond them will require fearless creativity and extraordinary insight. Special places like Perimeter encourage young scientists to be ambitious and bold. And I do believe in the limitless power of the human mind to understand the universe and to create the future.”
Andrew Hunter – Director said, “having met Professor Hawking for the first time I now realise how remarkable a person he is. It was an honour to meet and spend time joking with him.”
