Re: the reference to the first Apollo moon launch, while the
show didn't give a specific date (or even year) for the first launch
(although I think Spock said something like "Hmm - wasn't that around
the early 1970's?"), there was a very interesting (if somewhat trivial)
piece of prophecy. The intercepted radio message said something to
the effect that "Wednesday morning's moon launch...". Guess what fans -
Apollo 11 did lift off on a Wednesday.
