T MINUS 6...: 'Star Trek' Producer Robert Justman's Son On His Father's Legacy

Daily Star Trek News

Late last year, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights announced their next flight. Dubbed the Enterprise mission, it will see the remains of several Star Trek luminaries journeying into the final frontier on the Vulcan Centaur rocket. Since the announcement, I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing friends and family members of the late, great cast and crew who will be blasting off next month. Throughout the month of April, I’ll be releasing those interviews. Robert Justman, Producer on the original Star Trek, was Gene Roddenberry’s right-hand man and as responsible for the success of the show as Roddenberry himself. His remains will be on the Enterprise mission with Roddenberry, and I spoke with his son Jonathan about the space flight.

The Enterprise mission is scheduled to blast off on May 4, 2023, and you’ll be able to stream it live. Launch dates and times can change up to the last minute based on a number of variables, including weather conditions, so for the latest launch status, head over to. www.celestis.com/launch-schedule/enterprise-flight/.
