Summary

This quote by physicist and philosopher Stephen Hawking points out a limitation of traditional scientific methods. While science can construct mathematical models to explain the functions and behaviors of the universe, it fails to address the fundamental question of why the universe exists in the first place. Simply understanding the mechanics through scientific models cannot provide an answer to the purpose or reason behind the existence of the universe. This quote highlights the philosophical and existential aspects that science cannot fully explore or explain.
