Attention Star Trek fans: Apple has a fun little easter egg waiting for you in the latest update for iOS. According to a report from PC Magazine, iOS version 8.3 supports an emoji that will allow users to deliver the Vulcan salute to friends and family via iMessage.

The Vulcan salute, of course, is the V-shaped hand gesture popularized by the character Mr. Spock on the Star Trek TV series. Generally, on TV and in the movies, the salute is accompanied with Spock’s trademark line: “Live long and prosper.”

Apple’s new emoji comes less than two months after the passing of Leonard Nimoy, who originated the role of Spock on Star Trek: The Original Series. The show ran from 1966 to 1969 on CBS, and has since spawned a range of sequel or prequel television shows, as well as a successful film franchise. Currently, the role of Spock is played by Zachary Quinto, the star of 2009’s Star Trek film the 2013 sequel, Star Trek: Into Darkness.

If you want to use the Vulcan emoji on iOS, you are going to have to work for it. First of all, if you haven’t already, update your iOS device to version 8.3. Any iPhone or iPad should have this update. Next, on your device, you will have to find a place where the Vulcan emoji has already been used, so that you can copy and paste it into a message. That’s right: Apple hasn’t even officially put the Vulcan hand gesture into the iMessage emoji library yet.

PC Magazine recommends picking up the emoji from a Twitter message. To do so, follow this link on your iOS device, to a Tweet from CNET’s Dan Graziano. If you have properly updated, then you should see the Vulcan hand gesture following Graziano’s message, which reads: “Sorry Android and Windows users. You can’t see this emoji.” If you haven’t updated iOS, or if you are reading on an Android, a PC, or even a Mac, the icon will just show as a tall rectangular box.

To save the emoji, you can either paste it into a message to yourself – so that you can easily find and copy it again – or you can do what PC Mag is recommending, which is to add the emoji as a saved phrase in iOS. To do the latter, head to the Settings menu, tap General, tap Keyboard, and choose “Add New Shortcut.” Paste the Vulcan emoji into the “Phrase” category, and then choose a shortcut word that will bring up the emoji every time you type it.

Of course, only your friends with updated iOS devices will be able to see the Vulcan salute emoji as its supposed to be. Still, though, this is a fun little easter egg, and a nice tribute from Apple to the late Leonard Nimoy.
