'Star Trek' Original Series Opening Narration Quiz
How well do you remember the opening narration of the original 'Star Trek'? Your mission is to fill in the blanks with the correct words. Best of luck.
The original 'Star Trek' series aired on NBC from 1966 to 1969 for three seasons and a total of 79 episodes. Its opening narration, which was recorded in August 1966, was spoken by William Shatner as Captain James T. Kirk.
The words 'final frontier' encapsulate the universe as an exciting place, rather than a bleak void. '... the voyages of the starship Enterprise' confirms the starship as an important part of the series, rather than just a weapon. 'Its five-year mission' frames the series as a structured scientific and diplomatic exercise, rather than just aimless drifting. The rest of the narrative uses such words as 'explore', 'seek' and 'new' prioritizing discovery and curiosity over invasion. The final sentence, '... to boldly go where no man has gone before,' uses a split infinitive (to boldly go) to add emphasis, while the rest of the sentence highlights the bravery and courage of the crew.
