So to defend the ridiculously overrated Hawking, NBC decides to BASH Einstein decades later?
Maybe so, but this is a pretty light bashing, comprising, as it does, several hoary chestnuts.
Hawking’s and other scientists’ pronouncements on black holes reminds me of a picture I saw of the Large Hadrian Collider. Amongst all the incredibly mysterious machinery was a bicycle. It is like me explaining the Collider from the standpoint of my knowledge of the bicycle.
