LONDON — Stephen Hawking, the British mathematician and physicist famed for his work on black holes, was rushed to a hospital Monday and was seriously ill, Cambridge University said.

Hawking has been fighting a chest infection for several weeks and was being treated at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, the university city northeast of London, the university said.

:( noo, he was a really smart guy.

oh no :( I hope he's okay. dude's clearly consistently in SHIT SHAPE but I doubt anyone else has done more to promote science since Carl Sagan so I hope he gets better.

Well, for someone with ALS he sure has lived an awfully long time. I really hope he gets better, but I wouldn't be surprised if his time was coming to a end relatively soon.

The latest version of this article is a bit more optimistic. I don't think he'll be sucked into a black hole why am I making stupid jokes about his health.

I can totally imagine him suddenly jumping from his bed completely cured of his paralysis House-style after this.
