Star Trek: The Exhibition has been making the rounds across the nation, stopping in great cities like Philadelphia, Detriot, and San Diego.  Next up on the agenda is San Jose. 

On October 23 you can get the chance to see more Star Trek goodness including  the actual shooting model of the Borg Cube (from the later TV series plus the film "Star Trek: First Contact", a "Star Trek" adventure full-motion flight simulator, and a new addition; artifacts from the latest "Star Trek" film.

As Reported by the San Jose Mercury News, Star Trek: The Exhibition will be housed at the San Jose Tech Museum from October 23rd until at least Christmas.

"Once again, we've successfully endeavored to bring our visitors an exhibition that everyone on the planet — and even strange new worlds — can relate to, learn from and enjoy," said Tech President Peter Freiss. "Housing the exhibition at the Tech Museum is perfectly logical."

To accommodate the "Star Trek" show — which will take up more than 15,000 square feet — the Tech will take over the adjacent Parkside Hall. (The hall is operated by Team San Jose, which is a partner in bringing in the show.)

The version of the exhibition that will come to San Jose is larger than those that have been installed in other museums, although much of it is currently at the Detroit Science Center. "The producers of the show were very excited when they saw the space they had to work with, which is significantly more than they had in Detroit," said Williams, adding that additional exhibits are being put together in Los Angeles for the Tech showing.

The exhibit will include an authentic replica of the bridge from the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 (that would be the Enterprise from the original TV series), the actual shooting model of the Borg Cube (from the later TV series plus the film "Star Trek: First Contact") and all manner of costumes and props drawn from all five "Star Trek" TV shows and the 11 movies.

There will also be a "Star Trek" adventure full-motion flight simulator for those who want to experience a little warp drive.

And the show will have one new aspect for its San Jose visit: artifacts from the latest "Star Trek" film, which revitalized the franchise earlier this year.

"Many of the comments they got in Detroit about the show were about why the new film wasn't part of the exhibit and why it wasn't part of the historical timeline in the exhibit," Williams said. That gap in the space-time continuum will be plugged in the revised version. (source San Jose Mercury News)
