Hollywood Decoded (2017)

Season 1: Episode 16

When Star Trek first aired in 1966, humanity’s view of the future brightened as our minds entertained notions of Gene Roddenberry’s optimistic vision of the future. Jay Dyer and Jay Weidner explore this idyllic technological and social utopia, which may have served as the original medium for slow disclosure of the secret space program. A theme which continued throughout the series and reached a crescendo with the Next Generation episode, The Chase, where we learn that all humanoid life in the galaxy stemmed from a singular source.
