STAR TREK: MR.SPOCK

Star Trek has been a beloved science fiction franchise for more than 50 years, and one of its most iconic characters is the unflappable Vulcan, Spock. Played by the late Leonard Nimoy, Spock has become a beloved figure in the sci-fi world, and is truly one of the most recognizable characters in all of popular culture. Spock was a logical and unemotional figure, offering balance and logic to the often chaotic and emotional crew of the USS Enterprise. His pointy Vulcan ears, arched eyebrow, and half-human, half-Vulcan heritage made him stand out from the rest of the crew, and his devotion to science and exploration made him a perfect role model for generations of fans.

Leonard Nimoy brought a unique pathos and humanity to the character, and his death in 2015 was met with sadness and respect from fans all around the world. Spock is a symbol of hope, exploration and friendship, and his legacy will live on in the Star Trek universe for many years to come.
