R.I.P. Majel Barrett Roddenberry

This marks the passing of another Star Trek universe player, the “First Lady” of Star Trek, actor Majel Barrett Roddenberry. She passed away early today after suffering from leukemia for some time. She worked in the Trek universe up til the end; in her last role, she provided the voice of the computer for the upcoming Star Trek film by J.J. Abrams.
