Star Trek Tech

For nearly forty eight years Star Trek has engulfed our imagination and sent us on voyages to brave new worlds across the galaxy.

Today on Far Future Horizons we present another outstanding episode from the acclaimed documentary series Modern Marvels that focuses on the technology of the iconic science fiction series Star Trek.

This instalment of Modern Marvels was hosted by physicist Lawrence Krauss, the author of The Physics of Star Trek and takes a look at the technology behind the gadgets used in the series, such as phasers and communicators, and tells their stories from the people who knew them best--the actors, producers and prop men.

The Best of Modern Marvels DVD MegaSet is currently available from the History Channel's online store and Amazon.com.
