Leonard Nimoy, who played Mr Spock in science fiction series Star Trek, has died. He was 83.
The actor, who won worldwide fame as the ever-logical, half-Vulcan first officer of the Starship Enterprise, passed away on Friday morning at his home in Los Angeles.
His unflappable character's blessing, "Live long and prosper", became a catchphrase for generations of devoted fans.
Nimoy's death was confirmed to the New York Times by his wife, Susan Bay Nimoy.
The former smoker, had been suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
His final tweet on 23 February said: "A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory."
