Steven Hawking left planet earth a day or so ago. He was considered, by the standards of the world, a genius, however, according to the Bible, Steven Hawking was a fool. Hopefully, he heard the Gospel and placed his faith, in Christ before he closed his eyes to this world? Otherwise, he's now in a place called; Hades or Hell. There, he will await a time when everyone will face the 'Final Judgement.' The unbelievers will stand before God the Father and be judged according to their works and subsequently be cast into the 'Lake of Fire' along with Satan, etc. Those who were of faith will not be judged by their works for they placed their faith in Christ and became a member of the 'Body of Christ.' their residence (After they died) has been with God, in Heaven the whole time. They will be, only judged by the rewards they will receive while they were alive on earth. There is NO condemnation, judgement or 'Lake of Fire' that awaits them.
