The son of actress Nichelle Nichols, who played Lieutenant “O’Hara” in the TV series “Star Trek”, announced through his mother’s Facebook page, Sunday, that she has passed away at the age of 89.
“My mum, Nichelle Nichols, converted last night and passed away from our world,” said Kyle Johnson.
He added, “However, its light will remain for us and for future generations, as the ancient galaxies we are now seeing for the first time, enjoying, learning and drawing inspiration from.”
