Not exactly - What Stephen Hawking did was to promote a rationalization for an argument that black holes and white holes have similar natures. In quantum mechanics, the black hole emits Hawking radiation, and so can come to thermal equilibrium with a gas of radiation. Since a thermal equilibrium state is time reversal invariant, Stephen Hawking argued that the time reverse of a black hole in thermal equilibrium is again a black hole in thermal equilibrium. This implies that black holes and white holes are similar objects with the same nature.
However the classical consideration for white holes is that they are the reverse of black holes and theoretically support the wormhole hypothesis by pairing a black hole with a white hole.
I think that it was Stephen hawking NO it was your mum

Studying space and black holes
1970 - Stephen Hawking's essay titled "Black Holes" won the Gravity Research Foundation Award in January 1971.
Stephen Hawking's research on black holes led to the concept of Hawking radiation, which proposed that black holes are not completely black but emit radiation. This idea resolved the paradox of black holes violating the laws of thermodynamics by showing that they can slowly lose mass and energy over time.
he dicovered that black holes emit radiation
Studying space and black holes
He studied more about black holes.
Stephen Hawking did.
The scientific consensus does not support Stephen Hawking's assertion that black holes do not exist. Black holes are widely accepted in the scientific community based on observational evidence and theoretical predictions.
Professor Stephen Hawking knows a bunch of facts about black holes. The count would be too difficult to quantify and probably not as interesting as the information itself.
