When Stephen Hawking tackled the issue of Zayn Malik leaving One Direction and its ‘cosmic effect on the universe’
Forget about A Brief History of Time, here’s Stephen Hawking addressing the brief history of One Direction.
Specifically, this was the final question he was asked at this 2015 event at Sydney Opera House, when he was beamed in as a hologram from Cambridge University.
Of course he was!
“What is the cosmic effect on the universe of Zayn Malik leaving One Direction?”

Many nerd science bros are very uppity and deem pop music and pop culture as something lowly and mock people who enjoy it, yet here you have prof. hawking validating this girl's question and being nice while giving a honest answer. makes you think.

He's not able to speak in real time so for events like this the questions were pre-screened. So this wasn't just a random question, but one that got approved by his team because he felt it was important enough to encourage anyone, especially teen girls, to get into physics.
