  Project Genesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Genesis Project was developed by a team of Federation scientists, led by Dr. Carol Marcus and her son Dr. David Marcus, working in an orbital laboratory in orbit around the Class D planetoid Regula.
The Genesis Project was termed a failure, and future terraforming efforts were done using a regularly slow, eventual process to transform a planet into a habitable world.
It is suggested in "Genesis Wave" that Starfleet intelligence actively sabotaged the efforts of the Romulans and Cardassians to replicate the technology, and that the disastrous explosion of the Klingon moon Praxis was actually due to the catastrophic failure of an experimental Genesis matrix.

 Genesis Device - Memory Alpha
The device initiated a process of rapid terraforming, by which previously uninhabitable planets could be turned into class M worlds ready for colonization.
Development and testing of the Genesis Device took place during a year-long period on a space station orbiting Regula, a class D planetoid.
The intention of the third stage of testing was to introduce the device to a lifeless space body, such as a moon or barren planet.

 Genesis Planet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the fictional Star Trek universe, the Genesis Planet was created from Regula One in the Mutara Nebula when Khan Noonien Singh detonated the Genesis Device during a fierce battle with his old adversary, Admiral Kirk.
The Genesis Planet immediately became a galactic controversy, and Starfleet declared it off limits until the Federation Council decided what to do.
However, before Saavik and Marcus could transport him aboard their ship, it was destroyed by a crew of Klingons led by Commander Kruge, who had learned of the Genesis Device and wanted to uncover its secrets because of its potential as a weapon.

 LT51 - NOT THE REAL GENESIS 1 - Genesis 1 Through the Ages (Stanley L. Jaki)
St. Basil, for instance, thought and declared that Genesis 1 is a true explanation of the formation and structure of the universe, and for him true explanation meant "a concordance with a mixture of Stoic and Aristotelian systems of physics and cosmology, especially the doctrines of the four elements" (76).
Genesis 1 is a textbook of the early history of the world: it does present the facts of that history and the correct sequence of those facts.
Hence, Genesis 1 does not say that "the earth, a planet (came) before the sun;" nor does it say that plants throve "prior to the sun's appearance;" nor does it say that the firmament is a solid dome or like the roof of a tent.

 Urban Dictionary: Genesis
An experimental device that became the bone of contention between William Shatner and Christopher Lloyd.
You can tell that Moses compiled Genesis from a number of sources because he repeatedly started from the beginning, and retold the first 7 days in the next telling as taking place in one day, because the word day is a metaphor.
In reality, the Genesis of a planet requires billions of years rather than a week of literal days, as in myth, or protomatter, as in Star Trek III.

 H-Fuel On Demand for Automobiles, by Genesis World Energy
The HICEF device can be easily incorporated into existing internal combustion engines with relatively few modifications made to the vehicle, and is similar in approach to today's conversion of vehicles from gasoline to natural gas or propane — without the need for high-pressure storage of flammable gases.
The Genesis HICEF is based on a revolutionary technology recently introduced by the Genesis Project in the form of the Edison Device - a residential and commercial energy generation unit that creates gas and electrical power through the separation of hydrogen and oxygen molecules contained in any source of water.
The reactant chemistry in the Genesis HICEF Technology is different from that of the Edison Device in that the gCells do not require many of the support processes needed in the Edison technology.

 Article
When the Genesis device is activated within the Mutara Nebula, Dr. David Marcus refers to the energy pattern as the 'Genesis wave'.
It should be remembered that this represents the absolute minimum energy required by the Genesis device, simply to pull the shells into the right place.
Genesis may use some form of Zero Point energy, although this seems a little unlikely given that this technology appears to have been invented during the TNG era.

 Spokane Journal of Business - The Business Newspaper For The Inland Northwest
Genesis landed a contract in August to develop a prototype fuel processor for Boulder, Colo.-based Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., a U.S. defense and aerospace contractor, and expects to deliver the compact unit in January, says Phillip Piffer, Genesis’s president and CEO.
Genesis also has met directly with military officials in recent months, and Piffer says he came away convinced that fuel cells “will be their portable power source of choice once everybody is happy with the ruggedness and durability of the machines.”
Genesis developed its first processor last winter, and tested it in February, so the prototype unit it now is preparing to deliver to Ball is a more refined, second-generation product, he says.

Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis (buy now) takes the theme park genre and injects it with a little dino-fever, and while that may seem like a publisher trying to pump out a crapware title to milk the last few drops from this cash cow, the end result is surprisingly entertaining.
The last is operation genesis, which is basically a sandbox mode.

When the Mega Drive was released on October 29th 1988 (for 21000 Yen) in Japan, it too didn't make any large initial impact, in fact, it made a smaller impact on the video game market than the PC Engine, despite being superior to both Nintendo's dominant Famicom and the PC Engine.
Sega soon announced their initial US release date of 9th January 1989 and emphasized that the Genesis was the first true 16-bit system (PC Engine (or Turbo GrafX 16 as it was called in the US) wasn't).
