Nicholas W. Lunig of Kittery Point, ME, formerly of Bedford, passed away on January 26, 2022, at the age of 94. Mr. Lunig began his career at RCA where he was part of the development and installation of the ballistic missile early warning system (BMEWS) at both Thule, Greenland, and Flyingdales Moor, England. At Raytheon, he worked directly with the Air Force, Navy, and Japanese defense agencies on multiple radar, missile defense, and air traffic control systems. He was happiest in Maine; no matter the destination, the drive had to be the “scenic” route. A man with many interests and expertise, Mr. Lunig was skilled at gardening, physics, and mathematics. He built dollhouses, tin soldiers, and gliders for his grandchildren and encouraged them in his love of poetry.
A celebration of Mr. Lunig’s life will be held in warmer weather.
