HISTORY OF STAR TREK

It was 25 years ago today, Captain Kirk taught the band to play, They've been going in and out of style, But they're guaranteed to raise a smile...

As this history is being written, it was exactly 25 years on September 8 since the Star Trek television series began. The original show is called ST-TOS by purist, or Star Trek Classic as compared to Star Trek: the Pepsi Generation. Originally done for three years between 1966 and 1969, this two-and-a-half decade old series has only gained in popularity. I remember the previews from the summer of 1966..."a ship the size of a city".
