WASHINGTON (WJLA) — Yoda’s ears in Star Wars. Elvish ears in the
Lord of the Rings trilogy. Sci-fi and fantasy films over the years have
had their fair share of recognizable auricles.
The most famous of all of them will be on display in Washington,
D.C. next year: prosthetic ears made for Mr. Spock (above).
Adam and Julie Nimoy, children of Leonard Nimoy, who played
Spock in the Star Trek franchise for decades, donated the ears
to the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum Wednesday.
