STAR TREK at 50: Celebrating the Past, Present and Future of the World’s Most Influential Entertainment Franchise

Star Trek celebrates its 50th anniversary today, and it’s been a long road getting from there to here through six television series and thirteen feature films.

The franchise has spawned hundreds of novels, comics and fan productions and has inspired millions of fans to create their own contributions to the Star Trek universe.

We thought it fitting that to celebrate the 50th anniversary we would take a look at where the franchise has been where it’s still going.



The brainchild of Gene Roddenberry, Star Trek: The Original Series (then just “Star Trek”) premiered on September 8, 1966. From the beginning, Roddenberry wanted to tell an optimistic story about the future of humanity. In his world, Earth is united, there is no more war, no more poverty and humans have evolved beyond superficial and philosophical differences. Star Trek espoused a humanistic view of the world where the focus is on human achievements and potential.
