Personally, I'm so glad she was convinced to stay on with the cast. She made a great contribution to television and culture of the time.

Best legs on the bridge! I was a kid during the first-run of TOS ,and I STILL appreciated her costume.

I recently watched a very balanced documentary on Ms. Nichols. She was a truly stellar human being.

Dayum, did not know that.

He went with his wife, and she stayed.

She became the computer and an empath. A powerful combination.

Nichelle Nichols in Star Trek, 1960s.
