Star Trek legend Peter-Henry Schroeder has died aged 90.
The American actor was best known from Star Trek: Enterprise, the 2000s TV iteration of the long-running sci-fi series which ran for four seasons.
Peter is reported to have 'passed away peacefully' in June while surrounded by members of his family at the Lake City Veterans Affairs Medical Centre in Florida.
His cause of death is unknown at this point.
Deadline reports that during his final days, Peter-Henry was repeatedly asking when he was going to be allowed out of hospital and back to work.
He asked doctors and his family: 'When are you going to get me out of here? I've got to get back to LA [to work].'
He is survived by his daughter Valerie Lynn and his son Peter Henry II, his daughter-in-law Felicia Cristiani Bass, and his grandsons Peter Henry III and Jarrid Michael.
Tributes have been pouring in, with the Star Trek fan page Redshirts Always Die writing: 'Our thoughts are with Schroeder's family and loved ones.'
Another fan tweeted with a crying emoji: 'Peter-Henry Schroeder, a veteran character actor best known to Star Trek fans for his role in Star Trek: Enterprise, Peter-Henry as Gunslinger, has died at the age of 90.'
His funeral will take place in LA with Military Honours, where he will be laid to rest at the VA National Cemetery.
The family have asked that instead of flowers, condolences be shared through the Human Animal Life Foundation.
His memorial page reported that Schroeder appreciated his life and stated: 'I had a long and rich life, and I thank God for it.'
Before acting, he spent time in the US Army, and was in active duty during the prolonged Korean War, which ended in 1953.

Rest In Peace, Peter.
Legend? Never heard of him and that Star Trek sucked. Not as bad as the recent garbage but it still sucked. Really only TOS and Deep Space 9 were good.
The only Star Trek movie worth it was the first one. When Darth Vader went spinning out into the Universe, it was over. Done. Period.
I like the episode where the Bionic Man fights Chewbacca and he’s Andre the Giant.
Never hoid of da bum.
Good work ethic!
Darth Vader wasn’t in Star Trek.
He didn’t look that old in his Klingon makeup. RIP
Who?
I never watched the new Star Trek series. From what I could see, what wasn’t stupid, an actor wearing a air filter over his eyes, was PC garbage. Well, we all will die sometime.
Well played!
Star Trek, Star Wars, it’s all the same.
I had to look him up. He played in exactly 2 TWO episodes.

Everyone knows Space: 1999 was where it was at. What with Apollo and Starbuck lighting up the Cylons every week.
I had to look him up. He played in exactly 2 TWO episodes.
One episode = who?
Two episodes = legend!
Have you been stuck in a time warp?
