Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaLater in 1967, physicist John Archibald Wheeler would popularize the term "black hole" to refer to the phenomenon Kirk describes as a black star, at the suggestion of a student. While several sources credit Wheeler for coining the phrase, it was used in science journals as early as 1963. The term is now credited to physicist Robert H. Dicke, comparing the phenomenon to a life prison dungeon in Calcutta known as the "Black Hole of Calcutta".
- GoofsIn Requiem for Methuselah (1969), Spock, during a mind meld, can order someone to "forget". It is unclear why he didn't meld with Captain Christopher for this purpose.

Time Travel Back To The 1960s
Season 1, episode 19. The Enterprise is thrown back in time while trying to escape the gravitational pull of a black star. They find themselves stuck in the 1960s for awhile. 1960s air force catches something on their radar and a pilot, Major Christopher, flies his plane up towards the Enterprise armed with a nuclear warhead. Kirk and Spock talks about the possibility of the pilot firing that weapon at the ship and it ends up that the pilot is beamed aboard the Enterprise. Major Christopher is quite confused and wants to know what is going on plus he just wants to go back to Earth. Kirk & Spock discusses what to do with Christopher because it's not just a simple thing to beam him back down to the planet because it could alter the future with Christopher knowing the future - it turns out that Christopher will end up having a son that will launch the first successful probe to Saturn. Spock devises a plan that will put everything back to where is was before this incident occurred.
This is a very interesting and fun episode dealing with time travel and how it could possibly alter the future if those from the past knows what's going to happen in the future.
8.5/10
