In Space William Shatner experienced H.P. Lovecraft's COSMIC HORROR and THE ABSURD of the French philosopher Albert Camus

WILLIAM SHATNER SAYS HE DOESN'T HAVE LONG TO LIVE WHILE REFLECTING ON LEGACY "If I followed through, I could make a circle of this rock we live on. We are so negligible. We are so nothing. We are this small rock and this negligible solar system which is beside a mediocre star in a galaxy that is barely larger." He added, "We're nothing. We are nothing, and that's what I saw. And what else I saw was the tragedy of the extinction of life." [ “A world that can be explained even with bad reasons is a familiar world. But, on the other hand, in a universe suddenly divested of illusions and lights, man feels an alien, a stranger. His exile is without remedy since he is deprived of the memory of a lost home or the hope of a promised land.” ― Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus] [ “The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age. ” ― H.P. Lovecraft ]
