Beam me up. To Seattle, that is.

    The Emp Museum at Seattle Center is hosting an exhibition honoring the television series Star Trek, which began its five-year mission to "boldly go where no man has gone before" 50 years ago.
    The exhibition, "Star Trek: Exploring New Worlds," opens May 21 at the Seattle museum. Museum goers will see Captain Kirk's command chair, along with more than 100 artifacts, while exploring the program's impact on culture and society.

The museum's exhibit features the bridge of the Enterprise.

In 1982, "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," reignited interest in the series.
