The truth, as always, will be far stranger.
-Arthur C. Clarke (16/12/1917 – 19/03/2008)

Yesterday, March 19, at age of 90, Arthur Charles Clarke, inventor, astronomer, writer and dreamer to be followed, leaved us.

He is best known for being the author of 2001: A space odyssey, one of my favourite books (and movies), and for proposing the idea of geostationary satellites.

I write this note to express my respect to his memory.
