With his passing on Tuesday, India lost one of its most celebrated astrophysicists. Narlikar was 86 - a man far ahead of his times and someone who shaped a generation of Indian researchers through his lifelong dedication to science education.
His funeral was attended by hundreds, from school children to renowned scientists and even his housekeeping staff, underscoring the profound impact he had on society.

His theory was the Hoyle–Narlikar theory of gravity.
Unfortunately:
I heard he was taken out by Big Big Bang.
My deepest condolences to his servants. I’ve heard some flat earthers don’t have servants as we speak. Perhaps his servants could continue their duties serving the flat earthers.
