Holographic recreation of Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking was a noted Human scientist from 20th century Earth. At one point he held the Lucasian Chair, a position later held by an alternate universe version of Data after his retirement from Starfleet. (TNG: "All Good Things...")

Both of the 24th century Starfleet shuttlecrafts Hawking and Hawking were named in honor of Stephen Hawking. (TNG: "The Host"; Star Trek Generations)

In 2369, Lieutenant Commander Data created a holodeck version of Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton in order to watch how three of the greatest Human scientists would interact during a game of poker. Data's observations were "most illuminating". (TNG: "Descent")

Hawking's name appeared in a vocabulary list on a screen in Keiko O'Brien's classroom. (DS9: "In the Hands of the Prophets")

Stephen Hawking was portrayed by himself, the only person in Star Trek to do so.
