Shatner Aims for Real 'Star Trek'

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the beyond-lance-bass dept.

swight1701 writes "William Shatner wants to boldly go where he's only pretended to go so far. The 'Star Trek' star is among more than 7,000 people who have told Richard Branson they would gladly pay him $210,000 (£115,000) for a trip aboard his planned spacecraft. In all, more than $1.45 billion (£800 million) has been pledged -- years before the Virgin Galactic spaceship is even built, Branson said. I wonder did Shatner sign up because the first ship will be the VSS Enterprise?"

    After a crappy series of Priceline commericals, a terrible new law/drama show coming out and a horrible album being released, I am finally glad to see something for Shatner starting to take off.
