'Star Trek' fans totally accepted my sexual orientation. There are a great number of LGBT people across 'Star Trek' fandom.

How could I have kept out this incredible fiction? That's when it all started for me. I was, and still am, a HUGE Star Trek fan.

[The Voyage Home ; It's the one where they bring a pair of whales to the future -ed.]
I grew up watching 'Star Trek.' I love 'Star Trek.' 'Star Trek' made me want to see alien creatures, creatures from a far-distant world. But basically, I figured out that I could find those alien creatures right on Earth. And what I do is I study insects.

I get that a lot of people love 'Star Wars' - and I could see that you can love both and they can coexist in our lives. But the DNA of 'Star Trek' is different in as far as it's human beings, it's us in the future.
It shouldn't be so difficult to determine what a planet is.
