Lucy Loves Trek,

It all began when Gene Roddenberry convinced Desilu to foot the bill for not one, but two Star Trek pilots. Thanks to Desilu's boss - America's darling Lucille Ball - the world met Kirk, Spock, and McCoy.

Trek Goes To The Movies,

The 1980s saw Paramount release three linked Star Trek movies to huge box-office success. The first, The Wrath Of Khan, saw Ricardo Montalban as Khan, a villain from the original series, return.

Whales, God, and Pepto Bismol,

The mid 1980’s saw three directors of note helm STAR TREK features; Leonard Nimoy came back to save the whales in Trek’s biggest box office hit, followed by William Shatner helming the crew’s search for God.

In 1987 Paramount decided Trek should return to its roots - television. ST: The Next Generation would become the first hour-long scripted show sold directly to the syndicated television market.

Dancing with Syndication in the Pale Moonlight,

After Gene Roddenberry's death, Trek ventured into yet another incarnation.

Voyage(r) to the Delta Quadrant,

1995 brought another Trek series. This one featured a new starship, a return to episodic storytelling, and Trek's first female Captain, Kathryn Janeway. It was also the flagship for Paramount's new television network, United Paramount Network (UPN).

Kirk, Spock, Picard, Data - the list of great Trek characters is incomplete without the Enterprise, Starfleet's flagship vessel. But Enterprise isn't alone - there's a whole list of Federation vessels that aren't appreciated enough.

It's Been A Long Time…,

Plagued by fledgling UPN's under performance, Enterprise's premise was undercut by the decision to make the third season a reaction to 9/11. Lackluster ratings meant Captain Archer and his crew would only get four seasons.

The Stars Above,

From the series regulars and recurring roles down to the folks who just did guest spots, thousands of actors have brought the characters of STAR TREK to life. Hear them tell what it's like on their side of the camera lens.
