R.I.P. Arthur C. Clarke

:( I`m sure everyone is sad to here that Artur C Clarke passed away on Tuesday. He was a real visionary who predicted geostationary satellites relaying signals around the world and wrote one of the most iconic sci-fi movies of al time in 2001 A Space Odyssey . He will be sadly missed by all.

This is very sad. He was a top sci-fi writer. Loved his 2001 series and Rama series.

He was my most favorite author. The world has lost a great man. :(
