The world today lost one of the greatest of science fiction writers, Arthur C Clarke.

I think I will mark his passing with another read of the Rama & 20xx/3001 series and any other stories and novels I may find in my library.

I would encourage all, particularly those that have not read them, to find the time and read some of the greatest science fiction novels ever written.

Mr. Clarke pretty much also invented satellite communications. Geosynchronous orbits are also called Clarke Orbits. Had he not come up with the theory, the world quite literally would be years if not decades behind where it is now.
