We have sad news that  the legendary Leonard Nimoy of Star Trek fame passed away today at the age of 83.

Nimoy is best known for his portrayal of Spock on the original Star Trek series, in which he starred in all three series.

Nimoy was born in Boston in 1931 and began acting when he was only 8 years old.

Nimoy suffered from COPD which ultimately took his life. His debut in 1965 as "Spock" in Star Trek set the standard to which all Sci-Fi movies were modeled after.

The Star Trek franchise will continue to you live on in honor of Leonard, and take us to places "No One Has Gone Before".  We will miss you.
