by combining science with entertainment to teach and encourage
scientific literacy. In the show, the audience takes the role of
new Starfleet cadets assembled for the first day at Starfleet

modern space travel and the latest in communication and technology.

"NASA and Star Trek have a long, parallel history together, and
we hope to inspire visiting families with the fun and educational

through Star Trek, and NASA transforms this incredible journey into
reality."
