by combining science with entertainment to teach and encourage
scientific literacy. In the show, the audience takes the role of
new Starfleet cadets assembled for the first day at Starfleet
Academy, led by its best and brightest. The new cadets have to

modern space travel and the latest in communication and technology.

Kirk and Spock themselves to create an exhilarating and

"NASA and Star Trek have a long, parallel history together, and
we hope to inspire visiting families with the fun and educational
story of space exploration through this engaging stage show," said

through Star Trek, and NASA transforms this incredible journey into
reality."
"Star Trek Live" is presented a minimum of three times daily at
the 300-seat Astronaut Encounter Theater.
