A Video Tribute to Lieutenant UhuraNichelle Nichols, who portrayed communications officer Lieutenant Nyota Uhura in the Star Trek universe, died Saturday at age 89. John DiMarco, who has given us so many Star Trek supercuts, put together a tribute to her character with a series of Star Trek clips in chronological order. First there was Star Trek: The Original Series, which ran from 1966 to 1968. Nichols also gave Uhura a voice in Star Trek: The Animated Series in 1973 and '74. Then she reprised the character in six Star Trek feature films between 1979 and 1991, during which Uhura was promoted to lieutenant commander and then full commander. -via Laughing Squid#StarTrek #Uhura #NIchelleNichols #JohnDiMarco #supercut

Pull This Uhura Pie out of the ReplicatorNichelle Nichols, the actress who played the pioneering television role of Nyota Uhura in the Star Trek franchise, has passed on to the ages at the age of 89.As a tribute, the master pie chef Jessica Leigh Clark-Bojin has composed this work. We have often featured Clark-Bojin’s past work, such as this pie for the Chinese Year of the Tiger.The Star Trek pie pictured above shows Uhura back when she was a full lieutenant working the communications station on the bridge of the old Enterprise. Clark-Bojin does not describe the ingredients or composition of her pie, for now is a time to celebrate Nichols more than pie.#ThePieous #StarTrek #Uhura #NichelleNichols
