....and, today, on October 13th, 2021, William Shatner (Star Trek's immortal "Captain Kirk") boldly went "where no other 90 year old man had gone before." Wink

Mr. Shatner was quite overcome with his "out-of-this-world" experience, and stated: "I never want to get over this."

Who would have thought, over 50 years ago, that "Captain Kirk" would, one day in the distant future, travel amongst the stars.......(!!)

"Star Trek"* lives! Very Happy

"NYO"
