Too bad Spock wasn't still around to go with him.

Better yet, how about the entire Enterprise crew.

It is only a matter of time in this space race that a Klingon destroyer is going to interfere with this opulence and turn it into a giant fireball.

I still think Blue Origin looks like a giant - penis!

If we are to believe 50 years of tell-all interviews, arguments, and infighting from the cast and crew of the USS Enterprise, then not only does Blue Origin 'look' like a penis, it is full of dicks.

Can we send George Takei up in a separate capsule with just a set of handlebars from a Honda Trail 90?

Aye, laddie, the wee Scot (James Doohan) was planted in orbit, May 22 2012, riding upon a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

He was also honored with a whisky named for his self..

He’d probably enjoy it a lot more sitting atop that giant penis with a tube of KY jelly. The handlebars are just for show.

Gene Roddenberry beat him by 20 years:

Quote:
In October 1992, NASA astronaut James Weatherbee carried a portion of Roddenberry’s ashes among his “personal effects” to orbit on board Space Shuttle Columbia. Majel Roddenberry [Gene's wife and voice of the Enterprise computer] had asked NASA Administrator Dan Goldin to help her fulfill Gene’s lifelong desire for space travel, and Goldin approved an “unofficial” flight - hence the use of an astronaut’s allotted personal space aboard a Shuttle.

Majel Roddenberry was also Lwaxana Troi in ST:NG.
