After overcoming some difficulties during his finalfew years in the US,Qian retumed to China in 1955.He received a hero's welcome from his homeland and was put in chargeof not only developingChina's rocket science but also its space and missile programme.At that time,China was poor andits rocket science was undeveloped. No institute or university inChinaoffered rocket science as amajor,and there were no talents or experts in this field in China.Nevertheless.Qi AWORLD OF PURE THOUGHT Stephen Hawking was one of the most famous and gifted scientists in physics.Mostpeople are familiar with images of him in his wheelchair, unable to move and using a computerto talk. Since he came down with a discase which caused him to losethe use of most of his muscles,his world beame one of abstract thought. Hawking first achieved fame when he was still healthy enough to walk,as a graduate student in physics at Cambridge University in 1964.In general,there were two main theories on the origin of the universe.The first was the steady state theory,which holds that the universe has no beginning or end.The other was the big bang theory,which holds that the universe began at a single point in time and space.The biggest Hoyle,a professor at Cambridge.During the questionandanswerperiod after one of Hoyle's lectures ,Hawking stoodup and pointed out that chamnian of the steadty state concent was Fred Hovle had made a mistake in his maths Once the maths was corrected,it showed that the big say,and to dream of what others were afraid bang theory-and not the steadystate theory- to dream about.Furthermore,he was quite was true.Hawking's own work on the bigbang determined.This had helped himasa scientist. theory was soon proven by astronomerswith andhad helped him evenmore inhis fight against telescopes.Astar was bom. his disease.Above all,Hawking was willing So,what made Stephen Hawking a genius?

Qian read a lot and was extremely knowledgeable, especially inthe area of frontier science research. However,what might have made him such an outstanding and ereative scientist was probably his strong interest inother things,such as music and drawing.His deep appreciation for art often eave him inspiration in his scientifie research.

He is so patriotic and determined that he made the decision to studygeology because he wanted to make contributions to the development of China. Because he made lots of research on China's energy earthquakes,etc,he earned the name of the father ofChina's geology. Furthermore,what might have made him such an outstanding and creative scientist was probably his st rong interest in other things,such as music and calligraphy. On April 291971,the whole country was saddened by his death, and people honoured and remembered him in different ways. $$
