Star Trek spork: The final frontier in utensils |
Apparently in the future people can’t decide between the fork and the spoon. That’s why Starfleet issues this spork to all new cadets at the academy. On a side note, I never thought I would ever see a limited edition spork in my life. Trek has really gone downhill.
It’s sports the Starfleet emblem on the back with “Mess Hall” on the handle. It’s a limited edition of 1,701. They should have put spock on it and called it the Spock Spork.




Living in your mom’s basement has some serious drawbacks, I’m sure. Why not spruce it up a little bit. Live a little. Well, now your dream of living on the bridge of the Enterprise can come true with this realistic wall mural, available for pre-order and shipping next month.
We knew about the
In case you haven’t noticed there’s a new Trek movie that seems to resemble 90210 or One Tree Hill. Before you see it, you’re going to want to brush up on your geek knowledge with this 20 Questions Star Trek Edition Game. It will let you test your Star Trek knowledge with the typical 20 questions gameplay.
This is about a year old, but it’s cool. This guy turned his Prius into a Star Trek Shuttle, basically just using decals and adding blue lights under the car. Interesting how the Prius’ shape lends itself to a Star Fleet shuttle. Inside the car, he has it set up so he can add sound effects. This is a mod with minimum customization, that just about anybody can pull off. I wonder if his garage looks like the hanger deck and has
Or, the old one actually. But new to us in 2008. The above pic should get your geek juices flowing like Romulan ale at a Klingon orgy. The first look at J.J.’s Enterprise. It’s a mash-up of the classic and movie versions of the ship. It’s pretty sweet looking. JJ Abrams was struck by that scene in ST: The Motion Picture where Kirk takes a shuttlecraft to the ship and we get a nice long look that shows us all of the stunning detail, including many of the individual tiles that make up the hull. Apparently there will be a similar scene in the new flick. What do you guys think? You like?
If Arthur Conan Doyle, Jules Verne and the like had had the opportunity to explore space, their gear might have looked something like this. Herr Döktor’s Vacuum Survival System, or ‘Space Helmet’ was apparently recently recovered from the archive at “Castle d’Arrogance”. There aren’t a ton of details, but from what I gather, it’s fully functional should you wish to leave Victorian England and explore space.
If you happen to be bored at work, why not build yourself the United Federation Of Planets most famous ship. From office supplies. Instructables shows you how to use your work time to make a Starship Enterprise out of supplies that are laying around. When you’re finished, maybe you can figure out how to make the rest of the Star Trek ships and have an awesome nerd battle.
Nowadays you probably don’t have much to do with your extra dollars, so here’s a good option. Make origami spaceships, like those from Star Trek and Star Wars, made entirely from folded dollar bills. The Millenium Falcon is a bit more expensive as it takes three dollar bills to get all that detail. It’s the work of Hawaii resident Won Park, whose next project is apparently Firefly’s Serenity. Awesome stuff.
Everyone knows that Trekkies are big on nuts. And what they have been lacking are some Trek inspired Nutcrackers to go with their
Now, I can understand wanting a Star Trek
As far as I’m concerned the best Trek Vehicle ever is the
Talk about a sweet piece of geek candy. This replica of Captain James Tiberius Kirk’s chair should complete that Enterprise theme you’ve been working on in your room. Heck, even if this is the only piece of the bridge you have, it should be good enough to get Uhura on your lap.
