I am a big Star
trek fan. I wouldn't go as far as to say
that I am a trekkie but I did love watching the shows and the movies. Whether they were friends in real life or not
the chemistry between Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock on screen was great. I wanted to be on the enterprise and in fact back
in the day when NASA was awe inspiring I contacted them. I got a great letter back saying that if I was
interested in working there, then they would be happy to talk with me. I didn't pursue it mostly because I was
interested in flying but was plagued by horrible motion sickness but I wish I
had thought about another path there, being in IT. I sometimes
wonder what if I had applied to NASA and worked in IT there. I guess I will never know will I.
Anyway last week we lost a great advocate of space
and the final frontier. Leonard Nemoy
passed away. He will be missed. Here is a good article I thought you might like to read. A Tribute to Leonard Nemoy.
