Dive into the wonderfully quirky world of Professor Stephen Hawking with "." This isn't your run-of-the-mill museum exhibit; it's a backstage pass to see what made this genius tick. The Science Museum Group managed to snag a treasure trove of Hawking's office goodies back in May 2021, and now you can take a gander at what helped turn him into an academic rock star.

Among the curious finds, you'll discover his PhD thesis, which some might argue is the physicist's version of a superhero origin story. Don't miss his specially adapted spectacles that turned him into a communication powerhouse. And let's not forget the exclusive invitation to that infamous time travellers' party he hosted. Oh, and for a sprinkle of celebrity magic, there's a jacket gifted by The Simpsons creators adorned with characters you definitely recognise, plus a cast photo from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Swing by the Changing Highlights section of the Revolution Manchester gallery and prepare to be entertained by this delightful mix of science and pop culture.
