Just two weeks before his death, Steven Hawking submitted a research paper with suggestions on the detection of another universe and also predicted the end of the world.
His co-author professor Thomas Hertog said, “He could have won a Nobel Prize for his work which he had completed before his death.”
The theory had confused and piqued curiosity of Hawkins for 35 years before he died at the age of 76.
In the ‘No boundary theory’ devised with James Hartle, the duo talked about how the earth came into being during the Big Bang. The theory also suggested many other universes due to various other Big Bangs that have created those universes.
Hawking also explored how the universes could be searched through a probe on a spaceship.
The paper also predicted that our universe will ultimately delve into darkness due to the stars running out of energy.
