The Star Trek Museum was
established in 2006 and teaches real science in Star Trek format. Visitors can
explore exhibits on Astrometrics, Warp Theory, Engineering and experience being
beamed up to 10-Forward and using the two working Holodecks. Trekkies can also
get a close up view of the starship and bridge recreations.
The Enterprise NCC-1701 is a
full sized recreation of Captain Kirk’s starship. You can even sit in the
captain’s seat and watch a Star Trek Tribute on the main viewer.
ShuttleCrafts are available
at two locations on New Eridani. They fly from p’Jem Monastery to any place you
want to see around the sim. Don’t worry if you cannot fly, these shuttecrafts
are piloted automatically.
The virtual Star Trek
experience does not end there. The museum offer information about the history
and culture of Andorians, Borgs, Cardassian, Klingons, Orion, Romulans and
Vulcans. Exhibits include recreated artifacts and you can even visit the home
of the Grand Nagus, a Borg Cube or a Klingon house. Be sure to collect the
freebies that are all over the sim and browse the outdoor market. After your
tour grab a bite to eat at the
Federation Buffet table and dine on live gagh and blood wine.
New Eridian is a sim full of
adventure and so much to see and be a part of. The Vulcan Arena showcases a
Star Trek Style Wedding and the Ceremonial Center offers formal events and
trivia. Vulcan Home rentals are also an option for Trekky Roleplayers.
Aside from Star Trek culture
there is also educational information on real life whale conservation you can
learn about while at the Whale Observation Pier. Whale Watching and Scuba
diving are some fun activities to incorporate into your tour. Inspired by Star
Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Roddenbery Dive Team is another educational tour that
combines the philosophy of Star Trek with exploration and protection of the
earth’s oceans.

The woman who runs this sim is nuts. She has two sets of rules. One you get from the notecard she hands out at the landing point, which is normal for many rp sim found in SL, but then she has a second set of rules that she sends you if you break her unspoken rules. She ejects you for having the wrong group listed in your profile and even claims that you are "invading her RL home" with the stuff in your profile by "projecting" it onto her home computer from your avatar. She's a little insane, but hey, get past the insanity, the place is an amazing build. It's just too bad it has to be run by someone who is a bigot.
