I bet that you don’t know where the Vulcan salute came from? I also bet that you don’t know Leonard Nimoy himself that suggested the hand gesture for Star Trek and that it comes from his religious background. Click through to watch a short clip on the subject. → Read More
It’s probably best to playact with this Star Trek Tricorder in the privacy of your own home. Please do yourself a favor and if you must spend $49.99 on this, keep it on a shelf somewhere and only play with the working sound effects and lights when no one is around. Sound good? → Read More
In honor of the latest Star Trek release, MSN Video has rolled out a Klingon version of its Star Trek video page. Klingon, of course, is the tongue spoken by the race of the same name in the fictional Star Trek universe. For those of you who aren’t Trekkies, Klingons are the warrior race and usually are portrayed as the enemy in the Star Trek series and movies.
One notably hilarious (or sad… → Read More
Trekkies are an odd bunch and SNL did a great job poking fun at them back in 1986 with help from Shatner. Last weekend SNL continued the tradition with the help from the new actors and Leonard Neomy. Watch the new and old videos after the jump. → Read More
Didja catch Star Trek last weekend? Some people did ’cause the movie brought in an estimated $72.5 million. Anyway, one of Joel Johnson’s friends just so happens to be an IMAX engineer and offers up an explanation on why the new Star Trek isn’t a real IMAX film dispite being shown on IMAX screens. She goes into a bit more detail than “it isn’t IMAX ’cause it’s not film on IMAX.” → Read More
Sure this is old as all get out and Star Wars is better than Star Trek, but if you want your Garmin StreetPilot or Nuvi to sound like Scotty on the toilet you can download and install these Star Trek sounds at your leisure. → Read More
These little minute-long episodes, cut from actual (or slightly modified) Star Trek: The Next Generation footage, are simultaneously bizarre, ingenious, and unbelievably hilarious. Some are NSFW, but you shouldn’t watch them at work anyway because you’ll be firing coffee out of your nose and into the next cube. I couldn’t pick a favorite if I tried — though 12 is pretty off the chain.

The new Star Trek movie is awesome. Serious. See it. Anyway, here are David Letterman’s Top ten lines never before said in a Star Trek movie presented by Spock himself. Video after the break. → Read More
Captain Kirk: Bold, suave, and hotheaded.

Who would win? A GoAnimate video attempts to answer the debate. → Read More
It looks like we have an answer in the endless Star Wars vs Star Trek debate. If the USS Enterprise showed up in Imperial controlled San Francisco, the Death Star could easily blast the starship out of the sky. It’s that simple. Star Wars wins. Or so says the must-see video after the break. → Read More
Time for everyone to cash in on the new Star Trek movie. Brando is no exception with the “Star Trek USB Communicator internet phone,” a $43 VOIP device that resembles an original Star Trek communicator. → Read More

In one word: Amazing. J.J. Abrams did a phenomenal job that appeals to both new and old fans of the sci-fi series. You will not be disappointed. I have a man crush on James Tiberius Kirk. → Read More
Way, way, way, way, way back in January of this year we took a look at a clock adorned with Star Wars vehicles that was being sold on Etsy.com. If you saw the clock and hoped against hope for a Star Trek version, your (space) ship has finally come in. → Read More

Some people use eBay for what it was originally intended for. Case in point, a limited edition set of 8 Star Trek pez dispensers. If you want one (and you know you do) you can pick it up for about $17 plus shipping until the end of the month. → Read More
Love you some cartoons? Well, an upcoming episode of Seth McFarland’s Family Guy will have a Star Trek feel. Apparently the Griffen family is off to a Trekie convention, which judging by the pic, produces hilarious results between the old cast members and Stewie. I can’t wait. → Read More
Oh, man. I cannot wait for this movie. The latest trailer starts like some of the early teasers until you see the Enterprise in a fierce space battle. Damn, I can’t wait. Visit the official site for a higher quality, full screen video and don’t forget we are running a contest to send someone to the L.A. premiere. → Read More
Okay, so we’re not the ones giving away the trip. But we are giving away a sweet Star Trek bag that you can pack your stuff into, when you do win the trip those big corporations are offering. → Read More
We have some good news, Trekkies. We’ve got the inside scoop that the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia will be hosting one of two traveling conventions in May. If you recall, the Franklin Institute was home to the kick ass Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination exhibit we covered last year. Hit the jump for details on Stark Trek: The Exhibition, nerd. → Read More
Trekkies, your day is almost here. We know all of you are also AV nerds so you probably have your Blu-ray player sitting, waiting, anticipating the day when you can watch Kirk & Co. in glorious HD. Paramount is bringing the first six Star Trek films to the format on May 12 in a box set. I can’t wait. → Read More
Time to induldge your inner animator. Home animation site GoAnimate is officially announcing tomorrow that they have obtained the rights from CBS to allow you to create your own Star Trek animated stories. Sounds pretty cool to me. → Read More

Got to be honest, it looks great, but I’m more pumped ’bout the G.I. Joe movie after that trailer. Still, this Star Trek one looks amazing in HD. → Read More

Don’t expect this to stay up much longer but if you want to see Sylar as Spock, here’s your chance. Update: Official trailer after the jump. → Read More
I take issue with the idea that binder clips are “useless,” as this article implies, but if I’m honest, making a starship out of them is a cooler function than their intended one. The best thing about this instructable is that it’s super easy and once you’ve done it, you can probably remember how to do it again and again without looking at the web page. Plus, you can… → Read More
Entertainment Tonight caught up with George Takei and the recently married man gave his thoughts on Shatner’s recent YouTube assault. Autoplaying video after the jump… → Read More
There’s nothing like a good ‘ol fashion Treky feud. Apparently, William Shatner was under the impression that former Star Trek co-actor George Takei invited others from the Star Trek cast to his wedding, but not Captain Kirk. George had previously said though that he and his life partner did in fact send out an invitation, but Shatner didn’t send back the RSVP. Oh well, at… → Read More
