  Star Trek - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Star Trek collectively refers to six science-fiction television series spanning 726 episodes, ten motion pictures, and hundreds of novels, video games, and other works of fiction, all set within the same fictional universe created by Gene Roddenberry in the early and mid 1960s.
Star Trek: Phase II was set to air in 1978 as the flagship series of a proposed Paramount television network, and 12 episode scripts were written before production was due to begin.
Star Trek: The Next Generation was the highest rated of all the Star Trek series, and was the number-one syndicated show during the last few years of its original run.

 The Star Trek Encyclopedia of Technology and Physics
Already, before the episode was produced and aired, the writers of the Star Trek Encyclopedia stated that antigrav thrusters were used in the ascent of Voyager from a surface, and that the landing pylons merely provided additional stability while being on the surface.
Bodies as stars and planets cause a very small distortion (the geometric distortion of the sun is only 1/2000th degree in comparison with 'flat' space-time).
Neutrinos are often mentioned in Star Trek, for example in 'The Enemy' (TNG), where Geordi is found by a neutrino beacon, and in 'A Matter of Honor' (TNG), a neutrino beam is used to remove ship-eating parasites.

 The Star Trek Encyclopedia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although Star Trek also includes an animated series and a huge number of fiction books, these do not have canon status, and are thus not covered by the Encyclopedia.
This is in contrast to the Star Trek:The Next Generation Technical Manual, which makes detailed speculations about Star Trek technology, written from a 24th-century perspective, and the Star Trek Chronology, which makes many interpolations about specific dates in Star Trek history, which although reasonable, are not established within canon.
The Encyclopedia was written by Michael and Denise Okuda and illustrated by Doug Drexler.

 Star Trek
With the premiere of Star Trek on NBC in September 1966, few could have imagined that this ambitious yet often uneven science-fiction series would go on to become one of the most actively celebrated and financially lucrative narrative franchises in television history.
NBC threatened to cancel Star Trek after its second season, but persuaded in some degree by a large letter-writing campaign by fans to save the show, the network picked up the series for a third and final year.
Star Trek: The Next Generation greatly expanded the potential for such creative elaboration by presenting a more complex storyworld, one that actively encouraged the audience to think of the series as a foundation for imagining a larger textual universe.
