John D.F. Black who was the original Star Trek story editor for the first part of the first season (also wrote "The Naked Time") wrote an envelope script for "The Cage" which was the precursor to "The Menagerie." It was never used but is a part of Trek history. I have part 2 which is really...
Dave Scott, commander of Apollo 15 is an acquaintance and has been working on a film of his moon mission for the past few years. He sent me the link to the film today and I wanted to share it with those whom are interested. The footage is absolutely beautiful!! Here is a link, I hope you...
Ok, I have heard this for decades, that GNDN means "Goes Nowhere, Does Nothing" but I do not recall ever seeing this noted anywhere on the sets of the original series and it always annoys me we people say it is from TOS. I have seen it appear in the movies but has anyone ever seen it appear in...
Well, June 3rd a few weeks ago was the 50th anniversary of the airing of the last original Star Trek episode from the original series "Turnabout Intruder" and I totally missed it. When the 50th anniversary of the first episode happened 3 years ago, I kind of made a vow to watch the series again...
I went to see the new IMAX Apollo 11 documentary over the weekend and it was really great; highly recommended. The film makers went to the Nation Archives to get footage and the curator mentioned that they had over 200 rolls of unseen 70mm film which a lot of it was used for this movie. I was...

Full disclosure, this is shameless promotion because I was interviewed for the article but it's still good despite my involvement, lol
Next week on 5/21/16, the EMP Museum in Seattle will be opening their 50th Anniversary Star Trek exhibit. Here is a little teaser of the exhibit which also shows glimpses of the work we at tosgraphics.com did re-creating the missing components and lighting on the helm / navigation console...
I am looking for a hi-res copy of the below photo. I don't care about the autograph; I'm trying to get some details from the control panel. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Round 2 is re-releasing the classic AMT TOS Bridge model in August or September of this year. Round 2 has made some improvements from the original kit that include adding Spock's hooded veiwer, Sulu's targeting scope, reworked overhead displays and the biggest improvement which is adding...
I noted this in Donny's great Unreal 3 Engine thread but I thought I would also post it here in case someone missed it. I have posted an article on the Auxiliary Control Room set at my site. If anyone is interested in reading it; you can do so here...
As the title says; I guess the secret it out!!!

I was there during the filming and got to meet and hang out with Michael Forest. It was great!!! Looking forward to...
Something about "The Menagerie" has always bothered me; and it is a line that Mendez say to Kirk as they are going to see Pike for the first time. The line after Kirk says he met Pike once; Mendez says "About your age, big, handsome man; vital, active". Then Spock says that he served with him...
