[b][i]Star Trek[/i][/b] is a legendary American [[science fiction]] entertainment franchise. 

The original Star Trek is a classic American [[science fiction]] TV series, created by Gene Roddenberry, which debuted in 1966 and ran for three seasons, following the interstellar adventures of Captain [[James Tiberius Kirk]] and the crew of the Federation Starship [[USS Enterprise]], following an earlier pilot film “The Cage,” which starred Jeffrey Hunter as Captain Christopher Pike. 

Following the release of other series in the franchise, the Kirk-headed series was retroactively referred to as "[[Star Trek: The Original Series]]".  

These adventures were continued by the short-lived Star Trek: The Animated Series and six feature films.

The original series were influential in both the west and the east. In Japan it inspired the famous [[Uchuu Senkan Yamato]] classic anime series. 

Four more television series were eventually produced, based in the same universe but following other characters: [[Star Trek: The Next Generation]], following the crew of a new Starship Enterprise set a century after the original series; [[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]] and [[Star Trek: Voyager]], set contemporaneously with The Next Generation; and [[Star Trek: Enterprise]], set before the original series, in the early days of human interstellar travel. 

Four additional feature films were produced, following the crew of The Next Generation, and most recently a 2009 movie reboot of the franchise featuring the young crew of the original Enterprise set in an   [[star trek: kelvin timeline|alternate time line]]. 

The franchise also includes dozens of computer and video games, hundreds of novels, as well as a themed attraction in Las Vegas (closed in September 2008). Beginning with the original television series and continuing with the subsequent films and series, the franchise has created a cult phenomenon and has spawned many pop culture references.
