The science is sound, the plot lines adventurous and compelling, and the Enterprise...still the most beloved and iconic symbol of a future that I hope we, as humans, achieve. Star Trek is an enduring reminder that we may one day achieve the greatest goal we could ever set our sights on: exploring our part of this galaxy and discovering, hopefully, that we are NOT the only planet in this vast universe that has life...sentient life...and civilizations that want to know "what's out there?"
Star Trek is a voice of hope, and the very first episode is a reminder of what that kind of hope we may share with other worlds...and that they may share with us.
