Cultural Significance of Star Trek…
“To boldly go where no man has gone before.” Star Trek did not become one of the most successful franchises in television history by accident; it achieved this feat by telling sophisticated stories and pushing the boundaries with a diverse cast. In 1964, there were not many non-white roles in television industry. Star Trek did not follow this status quo and created a multi ethnic crew including an African woman (Uhura), a Scotsman (Montgomery Scott) and a Japanese American (Hikaru Sulu). The most distinguishable member of the crew was an alien, the half-Vulcan Spock.
Spock’s Influence on the Enterprise
Spock was born in 2230 on the planet Vulcan and initially served as ensign aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise. When James T. Kirk took over as captain Spock was named first officer and science officer. Being half-Vulcan and half-human put a strain on him at times but he continued his devotion to logic and discipline. In Vulcan life it is very favorable to control all emotions in order become a completely logical being. Spock provided a logical and level-headed voice on the U.S.S. Enterprise when humans were making emotional and illogic decisions. This 2016 Star Trek Spock stamp and coin cover brings the legendary character to life.
