William Shatner says that space gave him the 'strongest feelings of grief'

[TroglocratsRdumb]

William Shatner said seeing Earth from space aboard Jeff Bezo's Blue Origin rocket was a profoundly sorrowful experience, but one which inspired him to cherish the beauty of our planet.

In an excerpt from his new memoir, Boldly Go: Reflections on a Life of Awe and Wonder, revealed that the 91-year-old Star Trek star was struck with one of the 'strongest feelings of grief' he had ever experienced.

Shatner wrote that rather than being filled with awe, as he expected to be, the sight of Earth's warm blue glow surrounded by the cold black of space left him feeling like he was at 'a funeral.'

That seems to be an odd reaction to being in space.
I wanted the capsule recovery crew to be dressed in Planet of the Apes costumes.

In a strange coincidence, his acting gives me the strongest feelings of grief...

Well, look at it from Captain Kirk's POV. No Federation, no Enterprise starship, no federation outposts, no Klingons, no Vulcans, no nothing. Just empty space......
