Nichelle Nichols
There has been a debate for decades now on whether Star Wars is superior to Star Trek or vice versa. We don’t really know where most of you stand on this heated topic, but we know that when one member from each cast passes away, everyone shows their respect for the loss.
Star Trek suffered a dear loss this year when actress Nichelle Nichols passed away at the age of 89. She was made famous for her role in the science fiction television show when she played Nyota Uhura. She even made appearances in some movie spin-offs that were also widely popular.
