    The Star Trek Exhibit is coming to the Bay Area starting October 23 at the San Jose Tech Museum. It looks like it will be pretty cool, covering all the various TV series and movies (full set of the original bridge, shooting models, props, costumes, simulator ride, ect), so I thought I'd see if the group would be interested in going to see it together.

    Tickets went on sale today, and are $25(reg)/$22(student college ID)/$19(children<17). If it turns out that we enough interest to get together a group of 10, we could get the group discount of $20.

    I'm in.
    We encourage costumes but for the safety of you and our other guests and employees please abide by the following guidelines:

    1. No masks.
    2. Elaborate costuming may inhibit your ability to ride simulators.
    3. No weapons. Phasers, shields or any other accessory that may be perceived as a safety concern in any galaxy by any species is prohibited and must be left in your space shuttles.

    [face_laugh][face_laugh] I completely missed that!!! Oh, how funny! Good to know that someone there has a sense of humor and can write an in-universe-type rule/disclaimer.

    Yesterday, Dale, Kathy, Scott & Jessica, Anthony T. from GGG, and myself went to the exhibit to check it out. Unlike Star Wars exhibits, photos were NOT allowed, but it was interesting nonetheless.

    We all pitched in to take one of their "official" photos in the transporter room (the other option was the Enterprise bridge), where, if you tilt it, it looks like we appear and disappear.

    Are we still looking at getting a group of 10 together or has that passed already? I would like to go, especially since the deadline has been extended to 4/11/10.

    Let me know. Thanks!

    Some of us have already gone, so I don't know about getting a group of 10 together. It's pretty pricey, but its not Star Wars. When my bro and I go to Star Wars exhibits, we usually go more than once because we try to take lots of pictures. This Star Trek exhibit doesn't let you. :mad:
