A Sci-Fi legend has...

...passed into the etherium.

News has reached the base that Sci-Fi genius and legendary novelist Arthur C. Clarke has died, at the age of 90.  This news will certainly cause fits for all Hal 9000 mainframe units, espectially those installed in interplanetary spacecraft designed primarily to remain within our Solar System.

Jim and Dave could not be reached for comment, but it was rumored that Clarke's last words were "My God, it's full of stars!"

We here at the base will certainly mourn this loss, and the Science section as well as the R&D folks have asked for a pass to attend the funeral in Sri Lanka.  Given the current security status, they might have to settle for a CCTV feed.
