He is summoned back to the bridge when it gets a distress call from Ohniaka III, an outlying research station. Stephen Hawking: “I was playing poker with Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton and Commander Data on the Starship Enterprise!” by Gemma Lavender, 14 March 2018 Back in 2014, we caught up with the great scientist to get his thoughts on the universe, his cameo in Star Trek: The Next Generation and why we could be living in a hologram. Cranky Sir Isaac Newton was annoyed because he was losing and he wasn't fooled by Einstein's buffoonery. Grumpy Gramps told Einstein what the bet was. Meanwhile the cheerful 24th century Star of the Starship Enterprise-D, Stephen Hawking beat them all telling Albert that he was wrong again! Memorable scene from Star Trek TNG, Season 6, Episode 26 The Descent (part 1). Lieutenant Commander Data is playing Poker with the most famous Physics Scient.
In honor of the late, great Stephen Hawking, here's a clip of his cameo from the Star Trek: The Next Generation season six episode 'Descent, Part 1', playing poker with Data and Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein (it's actually Data playing with holodeck simulations of the three). They discuss the curvature of space-time and Newton's apple story while Data and Isaac fold, then Hawking smokes Einstein (who was convinced he was bluffing) with four-of-a-kind, much to Albert's chagrin. Oh, that Stephen! I bet he changed the cards in his hand with his mind. Rest in peace.
