Iconic. Groundbreaking. Trailblazer. There are many words that can be used to describe actress Nichelle Nichols, yet none seems adequate. It's perhaps most accurate to say that Nichols chose to boldly go where no one had gone before.
Nichols, best known for her portrayal of Lt. Nyota Uhura in the original Star Trek series, has died at age 89, according to a statement from her son, Kyle Johnson.
"Last night, my mother, Nichelle Nichols, succumbed to natural causes and passed away. Her light however, like the ancient galaxies now being seen for the first time, will remain for us and future generations to enjoy, learn from, and draw inspiration," Johnson said in a statement shared to Nichols' official site on Sunday. "Hers was a life well lived and as such a model for us all."
