Over at the Trek Nation, we've put up a new article by Michael Hinman, in which he writes about the large amount of trivia concerning the Star Trek franchise:

One of the things that has always fascinated me about Star Trek is the amount of trivia that has been generated.

Seriously, with 500 hours of television and 19 hours of movies (not even counting the novels and comic books) you could have enough questions to fill several seasons of Jeopardy, and an entire Trivial Pursuit game.

Many of these trivia items have been circulating in Trek fandom for decades now, such as the story of CBS stealing Gene Roddenberry's ideas for 'Lost In Space' and Lucille Ball believing Star Trek to be about a group of celebrities giving shows in the Carribean.
