whoever thought that outer space would be the final resting place for BOTH of them!

I can't even comprehend Majel's beauty, she had such a gentleness in her eyes that is just so captivating.

Deforrest, Shatner and Nimoy also made appears on

Bonanza and Defforest was a Dr. and Nimoy said something about the enterprise also the actors who played John boy and Grandma on the Waltons and B.J.Hunicut on MASH also as a Dr and other actors who became more famous later also.

She looks so good as a brunette! ∩◡∩

That guy in the well - played by Royal Dano. He seemed to be everywhere on tv back then, and in movies. Great character actor. Majel Barrett was always beautiful!

Another not so coincidence was a lot of them from the movies & TNG were from Hill St. Blues.

[Ed Tulip]

Sure it can a lot of them were struggling actors. DeForest was also in Westerns, Shatner & a bunch of others were in Twilight Zone episodes. Roddenberry had some writing history in the westerns - he once made his pitch that Star Trek was going to be "Wagon Train to the Stars."

It... can't be a larger coincidence* than this.

*not only with "star trek" but with.... posthumous space burial (?).

Actually James remains (about a 300th of a gram) is in geosyncronuos orbit as we speak. =) His remains was aboard the Dragon C2+ as part of COTS Demo Flight 2 and will burn up in the atmosphere in about a year. Harms my heart to know that some of his remains are in space. =)

This was quite a coincidence...

Try again, ace. it went up a day late.
