RIP Leonard Nimoy

He had Peace and Long Life.
I told myself that I wasn't, but coming here--it is all coming unglued now.
I remember him in a video on solar sail spacecraft a decade or so ago. His visits to Alabama...Though I never got a chance to see him face to face.
More so even than Newton himself, his was the face of Reason in an increasingly unreasonable world.
We shall not see his like again.

I found out about the news at work and was shocked and a little shaken. It wasn't until when I got home when I started to cry, especially watching the Spock death and funeral scene on Youtube. I don't get quite emotional over celebrity deaths unless they had an impact on me growing up, and in the last year or so, we've seen three such cases: Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Robin Williams, and now Leonard Nimoy.
Now three days after I'm still thinking about it. I wanted to watch some episodes this weekend and watched Mirror, Mirror, Journey to Babel, and Unification. I started to tear up during Sarek's death scene where he couldn't say "Live Long and Prosper" and Picard helps him. I was just thinking about Nimoy and what he meant to not just Trek fans, but just pop culture in general.
RIP Mr. Nimoy.

That's good.
I´m currently frantically busy with relocation and I got caught with the news of Leonard Nimoy´s death at home, it was mentioned in the German news programs. One of the heroes of my childhood is dead. Spock will be kept alive by the writers whose novels are all eagerly anticipated and much discussed. As to that, my heartfelt thanks goes to all the authors, whose novels, especially with Spock occupying the center stage, captivate me since I was 15 (I´m 36 right now).
The developers of Elite Dangerous named a space station after him. It is orbiting the appropriate planet:
Is that a game?

It is. It's a sequel to the original Elite (1984) computer game.

Wow 1984! That's a long time to wait for a sequel!
Well, it's actually a third sequel. There were also Frontier: Elite II (1993) and Frontier: First Encounters (1995).
