Fly to the Stars Nichelle...

Nichols was and is an iconic actress for so many - especially African-American actresses.
First interracial kiss? Uhura and Kirk.
And, boy did Uhura rock!
There is no denying that the Starfleet uniform is one of the most iconic costumes of the 1960s, if not of all time. The bright colors, the mod styling, the fabric — these uniforms had everything that embodied the '60s, while still being futuristic. Possibly the most fashion-forward aspect of the uniform, though, was the length — or lack thereof — of the women's dresses.

Bayly | Photos by Kiran Ridley and Neale Bayly Linked from Adventure Motorcycle It started with a phone call from award-winning photographer Kiran Ridley who was working in Lviv at the start of the war in Ukraine.

Thousands of miles away in my soft, comfortable life, images of destroyed buildings, dead and injured civilians and outnumbered soldiers fighting for their country filled Internet news feeds and TV screens. It didn’t seem possible that in plain view of the world, Russia was targeting women and children with their bombs and missiles,
seemingly intent on destroying every facet of Ukrainian life with this unprovoked attack. Two Wheels in War
