Late last month, I wrote about an auction for a whole bunch of very cool items once owned by Stephen Hawking. There was a classic bomber jacket, his official script when he made an appearance on The Simpsons, and even some of the medals and awards he won during his incredible science career.
There was also an old wheelchair which the famous thinker used between the late 1980s and mid ’90s. It was a somewhat odd item, if only because it was the only thing on the auction block that related to Hawking’s disability rather than his scientific work, but it still managed to fetch an absolutely astronomical price.
