Star Trek in Space

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- "Star Trek" has been beamed aboard the International Space Station.

Paramount Pictures said they transferred director J.J. Abrams' sci-fi franchise reboot to NASA's Mission Control in Houston. The movie was uplinked to the space station on Thursday.

NASA astronaut Michael Barratt watched the film on a laptop Friday inside the Unity module.

The 50-year-old astronaut said he remembered "watching the original 'Star Trek' series and, like many of my NASA co-workers, was inspired by the idea of people from all nations coming together to explore space."

Jorge Garcia (Hurley) Says Star Trek Was 'So Good'

Jorge Garcia aka Hurley aka Hugo from Lost, says that the new Star Trek movie was good. Okay so what? you might be asking. Well, if you have read Jorge's blog, dispatchesfromtheisland.blogspot.com, you know just how down to earth he is. He's a fan of the franchise and if he says JJ Abrams did a good job on the movie, I trust him. Although maybe he's just trying to make sure he doesn't get killed off in the series.

Last week I went to the Star Trek Premiere.
It was cool. Samuel L. Jackson sat behind me.
I wanted to offer him my seat because I wasn't sure if I could relax knowing that
SAMUEL L. JACKSON WAS SITTING BEHIND ME!
But the highlight of the night was without a doubt, the movie.
It is so good. It is so beautiful. And it sets up the franchise so well. I don't want to give anything away, so that's all I'm going to say about it.

TV.com App Lets You Watch Full Star Trek Episodes, Clips of Other Shows

The new Tv.com app for the iPhone will allow users to watch full episodes of certain shows, including Star Trek and CSI: Miami, and clips of other CBS shows free through either 3G or Wifi. It's cool, but I wish they had more full episodes of more recent shows.

The good thing about this is that now, the Hulu app rumors look even more promising!
