Dr. Marc Rayman discusses how StarTrek inspired him to create in real life what he saw on the show.

HOW WILLIAM SHATNER CHANGED THE World reveals how scientists who were inspired by Star Trek as children are surpassing the science fiction vision of the future foreshadowed in the program. The two-hour High Definition special explores how much of the sci-fi of Star Trek now permeates everyday life and advanced science.

Hosted and narrated by William Captain Kirk Shatner and based on his book Im Working On That.

  • This was Gene Roddenberry's vision not William Shatners. He was just an actor.

  • @seapeddler I'ma guess you're either stupid or joking.

  • @verysexyman69 If you watched the documentry, the whole william shatner changed the world thing was a joke ;) Bill even mentions that towards the begining of the doc.

  • @1bulma1 Agree

  • @verysexyman69 That is very true. But I think they used Shatner's name because he's a lot more famous to the lay audience.

  • @verysexyman69 William Shatner did change the world, but it was when he released his record album.

  • @verysexyman69 that's the joke........?

  • this are the kind of things that makes star trek intellectually superior to star wars

  • Of all the episodes, who would've thought "Spock's Brain" of all things, would be the one to inspire the future of space travel. Jesus...

  • Remember Lost in space's "Q" Bomb?

    See funny God's 2 "foot" 10 Commandments

  • great documentary but it should have been called how gene roddenberry change the world. if it weren't for gene roddenberry creating star trek, then william shatner would have been just another out of work b grade actor.

  • can you upload the full documentary please ?
