A bit of Trek history is up for auction on Ebay. The original Klingon opera costume worn by Terry Farrell in DS9's "Looking for par'Mach in all the Wrong Places" is available for bids. Not only was it screen worn by Terry Farrell, but the costume was purchased at the Christie's 40 Years of Star Trek auction by Lynn Sterling (Major Khalen) of Star Trek The Experience. Lynn wore the costume as Major Khalen on less than a dozen occasions, for Special Events at The Experience. Sure there was another made for the Lady Grilka character, but this one is special on two levels. Got a thousand clams? Here's your chance to start bidding on a DS9 & Star Trek: The Experience memento that is one-of-a-kind.

Two captains, one show. William Shatner is set to host Star Trek: Enterprise's Captain Archer, or Scott Backula as he's known in the 21st century, on Shatner's Raw Nerve. The 30 minute talk show on The Biography channel is another link in the vast Shat empire and see's the man himself sitting down with celebrity guests to talk about their hot button issues. The show is set to air Monday, February 28th at 10pm ET. Check out the description below with links to the show's website.

Golden Globe-winner Scott Bakula sits down with host William Shatner for a personal conversation. Shatner talks to Bakula about what it was like to break into the business at a young age, his time as a Broadway singer, and what an honor it was for him to play a role on the Star Trek: Enterprise series. Bakula speaks about his healthy lifestyle and how he's implemented his philosophies into the raising of his sons.

We had an absolute blast last year at the Austin Comic Con presented by Wizard World and it looks like another awesome Comic Con is shaping up in Anaheim, CA this April. Among the tons of guests appearing in Anaheim, Star Trek's own Robert Picardo, Chase Masterson, John De Lancie, Catherine Hicks, & Lee Arenberg will be in attendance. Take it from us, Wizard World puts on one of the best conventions around and chances are if you miss Anaheim, there will be a show near you sometime this year. Check out the Wizard World website for a full list of Comic Cons nationwide.

From the Wizard World Press release:

Joining the likes of Trek Stars Wil Wheaton & George Takei, LeVar Burton will be guest starring on the uber-geeky & uber-funny "The Big Bang Theory" tomorrow night. In an episode entitled "The Toast Derivation" Sheldon struggles to cope when he realizes it's actually Leonard who is the center of their social group. He then tries to impress the rest of the gang by throwing a party of his own. LeVar will be playing himself and is apparently one of guests Sheldon invites to his party. "LeVar Burton's coming here?" asks Leonard. "Possibly. I tweeted him" replies Sheldon. You can catch LeVar tomorrow night (Thursday, Feb 24th) at 8pm / 7pm central on CBS.

We'll be tuning in for sure. Check out the sneak preview below.

Today, along with all of you guys, we heard that Netflix is soon going to be offering Star Trek (most, if not all of the TV series) as “Play It Now”. Awesome! …Now what?! Oh, right…we wait. That’s right, as Trek-tastic as Play It Now will be in the future, (and since I don’t happen to have a Klingon Bird of Prey sitting around waiting for a trip around the sun) it doesn’t really help satiate my Trek craving now.

Oh, Vegas Khhaaan! your superior intellect and super human looks are hard for us to resist. We had a blast last year covering the Official Star Trek Las Vegas Convention, meeting our readers and hanging with friends new and old. This year is setting up to be just as much fun. It's the 45th anniversary of Star Trek, and we've heard a rumor from an inside source that Creation is trying their hardest to land Avery Brooks and Scott Bakula to complete the full captain set. We have to say, that would be magically epic. Of course, Khhaaan! is always up to no good. It's all cordial and full of smiles until he tries to steal your ship. Let's just hope we don't end up with Ceti Eels attached to our cerebral cortex like last year.

Check out below for the guest roster thus far.

As we reported earlier this month, Star Trek: TNG's LeVar Burton was in Kansas City area over the weekend to visit the Johnson County Community College and be a VIP guest at the Störling Dance Theater's presentation of “Underground”. While in KC, LeVar made a stop by the Kansas City Public library to read to children from the Derrick Thomas Academy. He was joined by local author Shane Evans and some representatives from the Storling Dance Theater. By the looks on everyone's faces, both the kids and LeVar had a great time.

We often kick ourselves for leaving Southern California, not just for the great weather and beaches, but also for the metric  ton of Trek related events in the area.

You can head over to the Hero Complex blog at the L.A. Times and post your questions for Nicholas in the comment section. As an added note, Walter Koenig will also participate in a Q&A Saturday March 26th in between the Star Trek IV & V double feature. Check out the full details below.
