A Visit To The Star Trek Museum In Second Life

Star Trek Museum Second Life

The Star Trek Museum has been in Second Life for quite some time. However the recent sad news regarding Leonard Nimoy has led to Second Life residents deciding now is a good time to visit and it is worth a visit.

This isn’t just a place where you play Star Trek, it’s a place with some very well researched Star Trek exhibits and information. The Star Trek museum teaches science in Star Trek format :

Teaching Real Science in a Star Trek Format since 2006. Beam up to 10-Forward. Explore exhibits on Astrometrics, Engineering, Warp Theory, Starship Design, bridge recreations, TWO working Holodecks & more.

This is also a place where you can learn about the history, philosophy, eating and mating habits of Andorian, Borg, Cardassian, Klingon, Orion, Romulan and Vulcan.

Exploring Star Trek Museum

There’s a full size Enterprise NCC-1701 floating in the sky. For those older folk, this is the ship from the original series! The ship has the bridge, sickbay, captain’s quarters etc.

T'Karath Sanctuary Caves

On my visit I went to the T’Karath Sanctuary caves where there’s a memorial to Leonard Nimoy. A time traveller was paying her respects.

Recruitment

There are recruitment centres here for those who are roleplaying oriented. The above image shows the centre for USS Polaris.

There’s also the opportunity to fly your own shuttlecraft here :

Vulcan shuttles fly from P’Jem Monastery to the places of interest on New Eridani. From the shuttlebay of our full-size Starship Enterprise, a Federation shuttle returns to New Eridani through our own stable wormhole. Shuttles are automated, no piloting skills required.

If that doesn’t take your fancy you can take a tour in a hot air balloon.
