Star Trek: The New Voyages

A preface from Gene Roddenberry in the first book published of stories written by fans! As some Trekkies know, it was actually fan interest in the franchise that revived Star Trek for the TOS movies!

(every fic where kirk and spock kiss is creator approved! /j)

Also, a message from the publishing office in their Acknowledgments page!

The asterisk is actually they're address at the bottom of the page, where you were encouraged to send two copies of your manuscript 😄

Gary Mitchell's Eyeballs Aka more Star Trek History

Because I'm me, I needed to know how they did this in the 60s.

Turns out it's really interesting.

To begin with, for those of you youngins who don't know about old contact lenses, they were literally glass back in the day. That's why in some old movies/tv shows, when someone loses a lens and they're panicking looking for it you hear a crunch when they inevitably step on it.

They also had to soak in these crazy ass things:

That's to give you some context about old contact lenses.

In the show, they took two of these lenses and sandwiched foil with a pinhole in the center between them. And then just made the actors wear them.

Apparently they were VERY hot under the lights (I'd imagine so) and it explains why the actor for Gary is tilting his damn chin all the time, I bet the director was constantly on him about it to get the best reflection.

PS, hot damn, that man was fine.
