Renowned British Scientist Stephen Hawking, whose mental genius and physical disability made him a household name and inspiration across the globe, has died at age 76, his family said Wednesday.

Hawking died peacefully at his home in the British university city of Cambridge in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
