Leonard Nimoy, Spock of ‘Star Trek,’ Dies at 83

Space: The final frontier

These are the voyages of the Starship, Enterprise

Its 5 year mission

To explore strange new worlds

To seek out new life and new civilizations

To boldly go where no man has gone before

Leonard Nimoy, the sonorous, gaunt-faced actor who won a worshipful global following as Mr. Spock, the resolutely logical human-alien first officer of the Starship Enterprise in the television and movie juggernaut “Star Trek,†died on Friday morning at his home in the Bel Air section of Los Angeles. He was 83.

very sad that he died, he always played the role of Mr.Spock so good, that every scene with him was, i like to say it was "fascinating"

@ProfTournesol Sheldon has to be strong now for the others, like Mr.Spock would say "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one"

Rest in Peace Leonard Nimoy, rest in peace Mr.Spock

I enjoyed the original series soo much. It was apart of my early teen years when first shown in the UK here, I think 1970-71 it started getting aired, can't remember now, too long ago. They had already finished it in the US by a few years.

I think it was on a Monday at 8.00pm BBC 1. Same night as 'Appointment with Fear' film slot on ITV at 10.30pm, it was a good evening on tv for me.

ST had an impact that still stays with me, have all the episodes and still watch them from time to time.

Sad day, he'll be remembered fondly by all the fans of ST. :(

I haven't been crying for a half hour. No, no, it's the cold temperatures, and some dust in my eye, I swear.

yet it should be noted, in the midst of our sorrow, this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise of a new world; a world that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel this sacrifice a vain or empty one, and we will not debate his profound wisdom at these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this: Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most... human.

Oh, that's sad news. I grew up with TOS, my father used to have every episode on VHS back then. Knew the whole crew by name when I was still in kindergarten. At least he scored 83 years, so he lived long and prosper after all. :)
