 Stardate October 13, 2021.

If it wasn't for Lucy and Dezi, we wouldn't be in ...  "SPACE, the Final Frontier".

Wanting to expand the "Desilu Productions", enterprise, Lucille started to branch off from the comedy and standard stage and screenplays that she had been running the same way, for some times, and decided to not work on the American family, or a comedy...  but...  to set a DRAMA...  in ...  SPACE.

There were fights with bad guys, internal struggles, there was inter-racial love, there was inter-species love, the computer could talk.    There was time travel.  There was friendship, kindness and care.  There was respect.  No matter what sex you were, no matter if you were younger or older, no matter if you had vision issues and had to use glasses or a "vision assisting device", Star Trek was there for you.  Star Wars came later, as did other science fiction franchises, stories, and tales.  

All in all, I wish to thank Gene Roddenberry, Lucy and Desi, the casts, the crews, writers, editors, distributors, and local stations that put the tapes on the air, of ALL the generations of Star Trek, so that we might see a fantastic future...  or see our selves in different light at the present moment.

Science Fiction breaks the boundaries of art.  It unites people from different countries, different cultures, different lifestyles, and different beginnings.  It says YES to friendship and unity.  It says yes to confidence.  It says yes to people being different, it says YES..  to US.

Have fun, Mr. Shatner.

Best Wishes.  +OCM+
