USS Enterprise Bong Follows My Prime Directive Precisely
Some intrepid Trekkie/stoner decided to combine his two favorite things, creating this awesome USS Enterprise bong. The movie didn't need any help being entertaining, but this certainly won't hurt. [What-a-Bong Via io9] -

Coolest Screen In the Universe Still Has Focus Problems
While I'm sure I will like the new Star Trek, I can't help to ask myself deep questions about it. Like: Why in hell they can't get their communications to look sharp in The Future? More » -

First Look At the New USS Enterprise
Entertainment Weekly's got an exclusive first picture of the new Enterprise, also known as the old Enterprise, also known as Kirk's Enterprise. It looks quite Enterprisey—a sort of mashup between the old sensibilities of TOS, the more advanced special effects of the USS Enterprise E (Picard's latest ship) and Scott Bakula's lousy junker. Looking at it again, those fat nacelles make it seem more like a cross between the Enterprise A and the Enterprise B. In any case, a high five to JJ Abrams and his effects crew for making a ship we're looking forward to seeing go "pew pew pew" next year. [EW] -

Touch Screen RC Star Trek Enterprise Boldly Goes Where No RC Vehicle Has Gone Before
Interstellar space flight may have been poo-poo'd on by astrophysicists this week, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little pseudo space-faring fun with this first-of-its-kind RC Star Trek Enterprise. Due to arrive in May 2009, the $80 foam flyer is controlled via a vintage Star Trek touchscreen communicator (Captain James T. Kirk womanizing is not necessary, but recommended). More » -

Star Trek Medical Tricorder Goes Beep, Won't Diagnose Alien Disease
This replica medical tricorder from Star Trek TOS is hugely detailed and looks pretty much like the "real" thing. It even comes with the removable scanner thingy. Plus it's got light and sound effects built-in, so you won't have to hold it over alien flu victims and whisper "widdlyweep... widdlyweep..." Mind you, I'm pretty sure that's what Bones used to do anyway— he never seemed to know exactly what was wrong with people, did he? With one of these and a bit of carpentry to construct one of those beds with the heart-monitor thing that went "thum... thum...," you could reenact the Enterprise medical scene of your choosing. Available soon for $39.95. [Geekalerts]
