Movie Description William Shatner hosts this look at how STAR TREK's influence extends beyond entertainment into reality. Based on Shatner's book I'M WORKING ON THAT: A TREK FROM SCIENCE FICTION TO SCIENCE FACT, this Emmy-nominated program examines how the show inspired real-life scientists. From the space shuttle named "Enterprise" to cell-phone design, STAR TREK's technology permeates contemporary life. The show also points to the future, with an investigation into the possibility of matter-energy transport. As Mr. Spock would say, "Fascinating."
Industry Reviews "[T]horoughly mind-blowing. The Shat-hosted film shows how the futuristic Star Trek literally inspired many of today's technological advances." -- Grade: A- Entertainment Weekly - Mandi Bierly (04/13/2007)
