Fans, both famous and otherwise, have been using the gesture to pay tribute to Nimoy.
In a fitting extraterrestrial tribute to the late star, NASA Astronaut Terry Virts has tweeted a picture of the Vulcan gesture from the International Space Station, looking down at Nimoy’s birthplace of Boston.
It’s enough to make even Spock a little bit emotional.
