Date: September 8, 1966. The birth date of the Star Trek franchise and universe. A tremendous date in history for a TV show that many weren't sure would bear fruit. But, it grew and today we have several movies, four spin off series, a new TV series (Discovery), and even fan films/series being created. It is a great day to be a Trek Fan. Not sure Gene Roddenberry would have totally believed his show could have achieved so much, but I believe he would very happy. Check out this amazing video tribute. Live long and prosper...
