More tributes to Sir Arthur C. Clarke

As most of you undoubtably know, there have been many, many tributes to Sir Arthur C. Clarke in all forms of media.  My own modest effort was here.

A few of these tributes, however, I think are especially noteworthy, and are the subject of this post.

The first is a tribute from Yuri Artsutanov, including him singing “Happy Birthday” to Sir Clarke (in English yet!)

.

This next YouTube effort is a tribute from his adopted homeland, Sri Lanka.

.

Jeremy McGovern from Astronomy Magazine’s Astronomy.com gives his tribute here.

.

Mat Kaplan at The Planetary Society gives his (and others) thoughts here.  Mat’s show continues to be, IMHO, the best Science Internet/podcast show out there.  If you’re unaware of his shows, or just haven’t been listening lately, you’re missing a real treat.

Finally, on July 19th, The Space Frontier Foundation will be hosting the “Arthur C. Clarke Banquet” at the Foundation’s NewSpace2008 conference in Washington D.C.
