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.

Hey #AllStarTrek check this out! -
@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 @georgetakei
Reminds me of the time I tried translating the song Silent Night into Klingon. That was hard, for cultural differences. When translated back to english, it had parts like "the child is timid and weak", and "round up the virgins, mothers and children."

@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!

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