Hawking Rawks. He's our generation's Einstein, and he contributes so much to the world of science despite an incredibly awful disease.

No this is not correct. His change of mind has nothing to do with time travel. Hawking had believed that anything swallowed by a black hole was forever hidden from the outside universe. John Preskill, a theoretical physicist at the California Institute of Technology, bet that the information carried by an object was not destroyed when it entered a black hole and could actually be recovered. 30 years after the initial bet, Preskill proved him wrong, and won the bet.
