Ben Bova, notable Science Fiction author and Editor he won numerous Awards and wrote stories that are still good to read.
The first real sci-fi novel I ever read was Ben Bova's The Dueling Machine.
Another giant gone. 😢

"So sad to hear David Prowse has passed. He was a kind man & much more than Darth Vader. Actor-Husband-Father-Member of the Order of the British Empire-3 time British Weightlifting Champion & Safety Icon the Green Cross Code Man. He loved his fans as much as they loved him. #RIP" -- Mark Hamill, via Twitter
