but it was an unusual thing
how many times has anyone here done weightless
Baloney.
Hawkings didnt do space walks - he went up once in a plane to simulate weightlesness.
Grnated he did have some interesting ideas but was off the mark about Time Travel - ie he maintained it was possible to travel forward in Time but not backward.
Altough he did have some interesting observations of gravity fields around Black Holes.

That's nothing speculative - It's a basic consequence of GR. You travel forward in time just by walking down a flight of stairs, compared with someone who doesn't, and in principle you could travel millions of years into the future compared with a stay-at-home, by making a sufficiently fast round trip.
