Happy 60th anniversary to the brilliant universe of Star Trek, and all who made it possible. Live long and prosper.
@georgetakei I remember watching the first episode with my father and hiding in terror behind his chair when Nancy revealed her true salt monster face. Poor Bones!

Sixty years ago today, the starship Enterprise launched and with it, a vision of the future where humanity had moved beyond its divisions. I was there at the beginning, and I can tell you: we never imagined how far that dream would travel, into homes, into hearts, into the way generations imagined what we could still become. In a world that often feels as divided as ever, maybe that's exactly why we need it now: a reminder that unity was always the point.

I note in passing that the photo on the left has every main character except Captain Kirk.

@AppleWoi @georgetakei I'd agree with that, but man, does my country need more George Takeis right now.

@georgetakei By the way: On German TV the vulcan greeting was translated to »Lebe lang und in Frieden« - what re-translated would be »Live a long and peaceful life«.
@aoeBerlin I absolutely love that.

@georgetakei thank you so much for taking me on your journeys, some 40 years ago and also today. The worldview and philosophy of Star Trek were and still are a great influence on my life and I'm very grateful for that. Also, it's always been excellent entertainment.
