OK but you will find multitudes of people who entered NASA and the space program did so because they were inspired by Star Trek.

So yeah he was JUST and actor who inspired people to devote their lives to reaching for the stars.

Call me crazy but in my book that brings to mind two words:

AWE SOME...!
;) (yes, I know awesome is actually one word but I, oh never mind...)

Actually he was a genuine artist, and his representation of Spock went deep into the human psyche, and helped a billion people reflect on their humanity and even inspire them to pursue careers in science. He demonstrated the complexities of the human condition, and the triumph of self-discipline, by pretending to be an alien. It was truly a role of profound genius-on-a-budget that he developed on his own, and his work will last a very long time precisely because of its humanity.

I'm very sorry you can't comprehend any of that, especially any of its beauty or value. You're missing out on a lot.
