00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.170
(dramatic music)

2
00:00:01.170 --> 00:00:03.660
<v ->When we seek out the unknown,</v>

3
00:00:03.660 --> 00:00:05.583
we will find things that challenge us.

4
00:00:06.660 --> 00:00:08.313
But we do not back down.

5
00:00:11.430 --> 00:00:12.270
Let's get to work.

6
00:00:12.270 --> 00:00:13.910
<v ->Engage!</v>

7
00:00:13.910 --> 00:00:15.270
(dramatic music continues)

8
00:00:15.270 --> 00:00:17.940
<v ->Being a part of the Star Trek universe</v>

9
00:00:17.940 --> 00:00:20.430
is a journey like no other.

10
00:00:20.430 --> 00:00:22.890
The connection has captivated audiences,

11
00:00:22.890 --> 00:00:25.293
generation after generation.

12
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:28.413
<v ->I was introduced to Star Trek by my father.</v>

13
00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:30.540
My father marched with Dr. King,

14
00:00:30.540 --> 00:00:32.827
and Dr. King spoke to Nichelle Nichols and said,

15
00:00:32.827 --> 00:00:34.627
"It's imperative that you stay on this show

16
00:00:34.627 --> 00:00:37.147
"because you have to be the face of those of us

17
00:00:37.147 --> 00:00:38.610
"who have been faceless."

18
00:00:38.610 --> 00:00:39.930
<v ->Be careful what you wish for.</v>

19
00:00:39.930 --> 00:00:42.155
You may get it.

20
00:00:42.155 --> 00:00:43.140
(dramatic music continues)

21
00:00:43.140 --> 00:00:46.230
<v ->These shows have connected around the world.</v>

22
00:00:46.230 --> 00:00:47.670
<v ->What's special about this community</v>

23
00:00:47.670 --> 00:00:50.610
is we get to be a family.

24
00:00:50.610 --> 00:00:53.883
<v ->It's extraordinary how beloved a franchise is.</v>

25
00:00:55.319 --> 00:00:57.690
<v ->It's kind of energizing in a way.</v>

26
00:00:57.690 --> 00:00:59.584
Pun intended.

27
00:00:59.584 --> 00:01:01.140
(explosion bangs)

28
00:01:01.140 --> 00:01:03.153
<v ->There's nothing better than Star Trek!</v>

29
00:01:04.140 --> 00:01:04.973
<v ->Make some noise</v>

30
00:01:04.973 --> 00:01:05.970
for these folks coming up on stage.

31
00:01:05.970 --> 00:01:07.173
They look fantastic.

32
00:01:08.430 --> 00:01:10.530
<v ->Star Trek to me is a sense of belonging.</v>

33
00:01:12.240 --> 00:01:13.620
<v ->Star Trek represents so much.</v>

34
00:01:13.620 --> 00:01:15.960
It's really about honoring and preserving cultures.

35
00:01:15.960 --> 00:01:18.360
<v ->Anyone who has felt like they don't quite fit in,</v>

36
00:01:18.360 --> 00:01:20.130
can find home in Star Trek.

37
00:01:20.130 --> 00:01:20.963
<v ->Perfect.</v>

38
00:01:20.963 --> 00:01:22.710
<v ->That's when I'm talking about.</v>

39
00:01:22.710 --> 00:01:26.130
<v ->The best three words to describe Star Trek are hopeful-</v>

40
00:01:26.130 --> 00:01:27.030
<v ->Optimism.</v>

41
00:01:27.030 --> 00:01:27.930
<v ->Family.</v>

42
00:01:27.930 --> 00:01:29.643
<v ->We are stronger together.</v>

43
00:01:30.810 --> 00:01:32.010
<v ->We are bonded forever</v>

44
00:01:32.010 --> 00:01:33.570
by the family that is Starfleet.

45
00:01:33.570 --> 00:01:35.519
<v ->Everybody, may we all live long and prosper.</v>

46
00:01:35.519 --> 00:01:36.777
<v ->Live long and prosper.</v>

47
00:01:36.777 --> 00:01:38.241
(person speaking in foreign language)

48
00:01:38.241 --> 00:01:39.622
(person speaking in foreign language)

49
00:01:39.622 --> 00:01:42.150
<v ->Live long and prosper.</v>

50
00:01:42.150 --> 00:01:43.530
<v ->The Vulcans invented this.</v>

51
00:01:43.530 --> 00:01:45.204
<v ->As they never fail to remind us.</v>

52
00:01:45.204 --> 00:01:46.228
(everyone laughing)

53
00:01:46.228 --> 00:01:49.561
