Neil deGrasse Tyson on Star Trek
I have learned three of life’s lessons from this series: (1) in the end, you will be judged on the integrity of your mission, whether or not your mission was successful; (2) you can always outsmart a computer; and (3) never be the first person to investigate a glowing blob of plasma on an alien planet.
Happy anniversary, Star Trek. Live long and prosper.
