Nice tour, thanks!

That's a really cool video. Going to Northrop Grumman is on my bucket list. It was such an interesting location.  

@PCz911 A very understandable excuse. I only have ever driven through LA—and that back in the 80s—and I really have no fond memories of doing so. And the second constant in the universe—after the bureaucratic mindset one—is that traffic only gets worse as time goes by.

Somewhere here I have some call sheets for "ST III: The Search for Spock" and one of them has brief directions to find and "climb the steps of Mount Selaya", which was at a Los Angeles university.

Operation -- Annihilate! (Episode)

Stardate 3287.2 : The Enterprise crew saves Deneva from deadly parasites.

The planet Deneva , home of Captain Kirk 's brother George "Sam" Kirk and his family, is in the path of an interplanetary epidemic of mass insanity. Approaching the planet, the Enterprise intercepts a radio message from a Denevan pilot who deliberately steers his ship into the sun — destroying himself and an unknown danger. Beaming down with a landing party, Kirk discovers his brother dead, his sister-in-law Aurelan dying, and his nephew Peter unconscious. Deneva has been invaded by bat-size, amoeba-like creatures that intertwine with the humanoid nervous system, manipulating their victims by causing excruciating pain. Spock is attacked and infected by one of the creatures. Kirk, remembering the Denevan who flew into the sun, theorizes that the creatures, who have proven resistant to everything Dr. McCoy has thrown at them, may be sensitive to intense light. Spock volunteers to be McCoy's guinea pig. The experiment works—but Spock has been blinded by exposure to the light. Too late, McCoy discovers that only ultraviolet light is needed to kill the creatures. A chain of satellites is placed in orbit to free the Denevans from their nightmare — just as a fully sighted Spock returns to the bridge. Vulcans , it turns out, developed an extra eyelid to protect them from the harsh sunlight on their homeworld .

Deneva (also known as Deneva Prime or Kappa Fornacis III ) was Class M planet in the Kappa Fornacis system in the Beta Quadrant . A lush and hospitable world, it was colonized by humans in the 22nd century and despite several major setbacks, it eventually became one of the core worlds of the United Federation of Planets . ( TOS : " Operation -- Annihilate! "; FASA : The Federation ; Decipher : Worlds ; Spaceflight Chronology ; ENT novel : A Choice of Futures , et. al)

History [ ]

First charted and named by the Vulcans , Deneva's ecology was fairly undeveloped until the first colony was established on the planet in the late 2140s as a support base for asteroid miners in the system. Terraforming was minimal, as most Earth plants and animals grew and flourished easily in Deneva’s warm, equable climate. For the first decade, the colony’s only troubles came from the occasional Orion pirate or Terabian raider, which the colonial militia could usually fight off using converted freighters and mining lasers. However, Deneva’s position along a major trade route led to contacts with not only the Tellarites and Andorians , but other races as well. Unusually for such a (then) relative backwater planet, Deneva came to supply many of Starfleet’s best-educated and most cosmopolitan officers. After the founding of the Coalition of Planets , Deneva became a member as a United Earth protectorate.

In 2155 , Deneva was conquered by the Romulan Star Empire , bypassing its early-warning system and destroying its patrol ships , including the USS Yeager . After they took the world, the Romulans massacred the colonists.

The following year, in June of 2156 , Captain Jonathan Archer led a large Coalition fleet to retake the planet. After the successful campaign, the Earth Starfleet established a base to defend the system's resource-rich asteroids, but it had no expectation that another civilian colony would ever be established on the planet. Yet soon thousands of new settlers arrived, drawn by the asteroids' minerals, Deneva's natural beauty, and by the determination not to let the Romulans frighten humanity into submission.

In November 2159 , the Romulans conquered the system again, but all the colonists had been evacuated or retreated underground in the asteroid mines, waging a guerrilla campaign to redirect small asteroids toward the planet in hopes of driving the Romulans off. The occupying forces had deflected most of the asteroids, but enough small ones had gotten through their defenses to keep the Romulans from solidifying their position, until the war ended eight months later with the Battle of Cheron .

In the following years, the colonists had returned to the planet and rebuilt their homes better than before, and the resurgent mining operation had continued to draw new colonists seeking to make their fortunes, especially with the founding of the United Federation of Planets in 2161 . ( ENT novel : Beneath the Raptor's Wing , A Choice of Futures )

In March 2163 , Deneva's capital city served as the location of a conference between representatives of the Federation and several non-aligned world regarding the Federation participation in the Vertian crisis . ( ENT novel : A Choice of Futures )

The colony continued to grow over the next century, supporting a stable population of one million by the mid- 2240s . The planet became a hub of scientific inquiry, drawing great minds from all over the Federation to its research facilities. From the beginning, Deneva served as a kind of “laboratory of colony building,” where specialists from all fields would come to get some hands-on experience on a world with plenty of room for error. Deneva Station supported top-flight research institutes in biology, agronomy, metallurgy, hydrology, kinesthetics, and most recently xenobiology. Denevans’ Starfleet alumni often retired to the planet, and even families of other officers move to Deneva after hearing about the perfect weather, great natural beauty, and interesting work available there. Well satisfied with its lot, Deneva remained a colony until the early 24th century , its governor was appointed by the Federation Council, but was usually a former Starfleet official with family ties to the planet. { Spaceflight Chronology ; Decipher : Worlds )

The colony's first major crisis since the Earth-Romulan War came in 2267 , when ships from Ingraham B brought an infestation of neural parasites , which attempted to take control of the entire population of the planet in order to produce spaceships and spread their influence. The parasites had destroyed civilization entirely on Beta Portolan five centuries before , and caused epidemic madness on Levinius V and Theta Cygni XII before reaching Ingraham B in 2265 . The USS Enterprise , investigating the phenomenon, reached Deneva barely in time to prevent another tragedy. Deploying 210 trimagnesite satellite flares, Starfleet managed to neutralize the parasites by drenching the planet in strong ultraviolet radiation, the parasites’ weakness discovered by Enterprise chief medical officer Leonard McCoy . Although the planetary cancer rate briefly climbed, aggressive treatment returned Deneva to its peaceful, prosperous state shortly thereafter. Deaths from the invasion numbered close to twenty-one thousand, including Deneva's governor Newton Armitage , and Sam Kirk and his wife Aurelan . In the aftermath, Deputy governor Helena Albrecht took over leadership of the colony. ( TOS : " Operation -- Annihilate! "; Decipher : Worlds ; TOS novel : Crucible : Provenance of Shadows )

Following the end of the parasite crisis, the citizens of Deneva got back on their feet and the colony continued. By the 2380s , two Denevans had served as President of the United Federation of Planets : Alohk Ixan from 2281 to 2284 , and Adam Zagrin from 2301 to 2308 . By the 24th century , Deneva had become a Federation member state in its own right. ( Template:Rpg ; ST novel : Articles of the Federation )

By 2379 , Otamad had been elected President of Deneva. ( TNG novel : A Time to Heal )

Alternate timelines [ ]

In the Destiny timeline , Deneva was a target of the Borg invasion of 2381 . Its entire population was exterminated and its surface was reduced to ash. ( Star Trek: Destiny novel: Lost Souls )

In one branch of the mirror universe , Deneva became the headquarters of the Galactic Commonwealth following the Tripartite Armistice which ended the war between the Terran Rebellion and the Klinogn-Cardassian Alliance . ( Star Trek: Mirror Universe novel : Rise Like Lions )

Environment [ ]

Deneva had almost no axial tilt, and therefore very equable weather and almost no seasonal variation. The main city on the planet, Deneva Station , could claim to have some of the best weather in the Galaxy, resembling a smog-free Los Angeles spring afternoon year round. In the northern oceans, circulator currents kept temperatures mixed, which could cause rough weather and even hurricanes on occasion, but most of the storms never crossed the equator onto the southern continents.

Almost all of Deneva’s northern hemisphere was ocean; the three large continents were all in the south. The long, kidney-shaped southernmost continent, Sibir , is cold and mountainous, and almost completely uninhabited. The two other continents, Bolshoi (the largest) and Menshoi (the smaller) had low mountains along their southern flanks and large rivers flowing north into the ocean. Both continents supported large ranches and farms, which served primarily as research centers into efficient organic agriculture and testing grounds for new fertilizers or counter-pest organism release programs.

Deneva Station was on the southwestern coast of Bolshoi, about a mile and a half inland. Up country, a fully-functional spaceport welcomed freighters and trading ships without transporters or otherwise dependent on ground services. ( Decipher : Worlds )

Tillman Water Reclamation Plant | Photo by Lindsay Blake Share My Next Trip Login Register TV Tours Star Trek is turning 50! The franchise’s first export, The Original Series (TOS) , first hit the small screen on Thursday, Sept. 8, 1966. It continued for three seasons, airing 79 episodes, before proceeding to launch a prolific legacy that includes six spin-offs (the latest, Star Trek: Discovery , premieres in 2017) and 13 feature films, most of which were shot in and around Los Angeles. Read on for a list of ten spots from the franchise, all of them tourist-friendly, easily accessible and inviting you to boldly go where Star Trek crews have gone before.

Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park

One the franchise’s most oft-used locales, the 932-acre Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park  masqueraded as everything from the mysterious mind-reading planet on The Original Series to a moon on Voyager to Mintaka III on The Next Generation to planet Vulcan in both Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and the 2009 J.J. Abrams-directed Star Trek . Located in the Sierra Pelona Mountains, the otherworldly site, which consists of 150-foot-tall jagged rock formations that jut from the earth at 50-degree angles, was named for Tiburcio Vasquez, an infamous outlaw who pillaged up and down the coast of California during the 1800s and used the rocks as a regular hideout from authorities. The park is one of L.A. County’s most picturesque spots and has become extremely popular with location scouts, playing host to more than 200 shoots each year.

Arguably, Vasquez Rocks’ most memorable Star Trek appearance was as the barren planet where Captain Kirk (William Shatner) famously battles a Gorn in TOS’ Season 1 episode, "Arena." The 2001 comedy Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back paid homage to that episode by setting a scene at the park, complete with a fake café named “Arena Diner” that was installed onsite for the shoot. Vasquez Rocks is open daily from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. and is easily accessible with plenty of parking. The site offers hiking (ranging from easy to difficult), photo-taking opportunities, and fabulous views. The area’s striking rocks are also visible from Escondido Canyon Road and the Antelope Valley Freeway, and were depicted in a driving scene in the 2006 comedy Little Miss Sunshine .

Operation -- annihilate (1967).

• User Reviews
• I calculated my average total when reviewing the 30 episodes of the first season (including the cage) and I ended up with a 6.9 average rating. That feels a bit low! The math is what it is though. There was 11 episodes that I scored a 6/10 and that dropped the score down overall and the abysmal 'Alternate Factor' did not help with a score of 1/10 and it deserved it.
• There was five episodes that I scored 9/10. My favorite of these beauties would have to be the cage. It's impressive how much that pilot episodes informed and continues to inform the franchise.
• Best performance? Well, I will join the herd on this one. Clearly it's Shatner/Nimoy portraying the characters of Kirk/Spock. They are just constantly delivering great performances and often save what would otherwise be a bad or average episodes. When a performer can do that you know they are a master of the craft.
• Bad trek is like bad sex ---- it's still kinda good. If I am going to give a glowing review, I feel the episode must earn it and not hand them out because I just really like trek and the vision. So, yeah ---- I am going to be tough because there is a high standard set by these people. Keep in mind with any of my reviews that I had watched the entire trek catalogue and grew up with TNG, there is no doubt generation bias present even if I do my best to reduce the influence.

Filming locations

Throughout the history of Star Trek , the various television and movie productions have filmed at locations, predominantly in Southern California, to provide a broader scope and grandeur than can be achieved easily on a closed set. Even with the advent of CGI, location shoots have continued.

According to director David Livingston , Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was budgetarily designed to have five or six location shoots per year. ( Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion , p. ? ) Livingston also mentioned that location shootings were always considered as "play days" or "picnics" by the crew and cast. (" New Life and New Civilizations ", TNG Season 4 DVD special feature)

Among the location managers and scouts who worked on Star Trek productions are Rhonda Baer , Rick Byrum , Lisa White , and Claudia Eastman .

Star Trek: The Original Series [ ]

The pilot episodes, " The Cage " and " Where No Man Has Gone Before ", were shot at Desilu 's Culver City facilities, on stages 15 , 16 , and 17 .

For "The Cage", Stage 15 housed the Enterprise bridge, the Orion courtyard, the Talosian menagerie, and the "Hellfire" sets, while Stage 16 had the rest of the Enterprise sets (transporter room, briefing room, Pike's quarters, corridors), as well as the surface of Talos IV , the Mojave parkland, and the Orion cavern. ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 56-62)

For "Where No Man Has Gone Before", Stage 15 housed all Enterprise sets, while Stage 16 had the exteriors of Delta Vega , and Stage 17 the interiors of the Delta Vega outpost . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 87-90)

The Desilu Stage 10 cyclorama set in " Amok Time "

The Culver City soundstages, which dated back to Gone with the Wind (1939) and were seldomly maintained, were quickly deemed unusuable by the producers, who also wanted to keep a close watch on the show, so when Star Trek made it to series, the production was moved to Desilu's main studio lot at Gower Street, Hollywood. The series mainly utilized stages 9 and 10, which were later combined with the adjacent Paramount studios to form Paramount Stage 31 and Paramount Stage 32 .

Stage 9 housed all Enterprise interiors, while the different alien worlds were built on Stage 10, which also had a cyclorama set, where planet exteriors could be filmed, using different colored lights to create alien atmospheres. ( The Making of Star Trek , Inside Star Trek: The Real Story )

The 40 Acres backlot in " The City on the Edge of Forever "

The "Arab Village" section of Desilu's 40 Acres backlot (formerly owned by RKO-Pathé) was used to film the Rigel VII exteriors in "The Cage", marking the first time an outdoors location was utilized for Star Trek . Filming took place on 14 December 1964 and 15 December 1964 . The same location was used to depict the exteriors of Organia in the first season episode " Errand of Mercy ", filmed on 27 January 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 61, 499-500)

A different section of the 40 Acres backlot, best known for being used by The Andy Griffith Show as the town of Mayberry, served as filming location on the first season episodes " Miri ", " The Return of the Archons ", and " The City on the Edge of Forever ", depicting the exteriors of Miri's planet , Beta III , and 1930 New York City respectively. Filming took place on 24 August 1966 , 7 December 1966 , 8 December 1966 , and 3 February 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 258, 440, 516)

A studio alleyway behind Desilu Stage 10 was used to film the scene from " The City on the Edge of Forever " where Leonard McCoy arrives in the year 1930. Filming took place on 8 February 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed., p. 517)

The lush exteriors of the Shore Leave Planet in " Shore Leave " were filmed at Africa USA Ranch , a wildlife preserve in Soledad Canyon, Los Angeles County that featured exotic animals from around the world, which existed at that time in the Antelope Valley in Southern California. [1] Filming took place between 19 October 1966 and 24 October 1966 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 375-377)

Another frequent (and now iconic) Star Trek location, the unique slanting points of the Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park in Southern California's Antelope Valley in Agua Dulce, Los Angeles County was also used to depict the Shore Leave Planet, filmed on 25 October 1966 and 26 October 1966 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 377-378)

Vasquez Rocks in " Arena "

The series returned to Vasquez Rocks to film the exteriors of the Metron planetoid in " Arena ", for which the location is most often remembered. [2] Filming took place on 9 November 1966 and 10 November 1966 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 403-404)

The exteriors of the destroyed Cestus III colony in "Arena" were filmed at an outdoors set near Vasquez Rocks, originally built for the series Tales of the 77th Bengal Lancers in 1956. Filming took place on 11 November 1966 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. p. 405)

Vasquez Rocks also served as filming location to depict the surface of Lazarus' planet in " The Alternative Factor ", filmed on 22 November 1966 and 23 November 1966 , and that of Capella IV in the second season episode " Friday's Child ", filmed on 24 May 1967 and 25 May 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 417-419; These Are the Voyages: TOS Season Two , pp. 86-88)

Bronson Canyon in " This Side of Paradise "

The outdoors sequences on Omicron Ceti III in " This Side of Paradise " were filmed on location at the Disney Golden Oak Ranch . However, due to guest star Jill Ireland 's illness, some scenes were postponed and had to be filmed in Bronson Canyon , part of Griffith Park in Los Angeles, California, as the Golden Oak Ranch was booked for another production. Filming at the Ranch took place between 5 January 1967 and 9 January 1967 , while the Bronson Canyon scenes were filmed on 13 January 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. pp. 473-476) [3]

The Deneva colony scenes in " Operation -- Annihilate! " were filmed at the then futuristic TRW Space and Defense Park in the city of Redondo Beach, California. Filming took place on 15 February 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season One , 1st ed. p. 529)

The crew returned to Bronson Canyon, close to the Hollywood sign, to film the exteriors as well as the cavern interior scenes on planet 892-IV in the second season episode " Bread and Circuses ", filmed on 12 September 1967 and 13 September 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season Two , pp. 343-344) [4]

Bell Ranch in " A Private Little War "

For " A Private Little War " outdoor scenes on planet Neural were filmed on location at the Bell Ranch , separating the San Fernando Valley (in Los Angeles County) from Simi Valley (in Ventura County). Filming took place between 2 October 1967 and 4 October 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season Two , pp. 378-381)

After the Paramount-Desilu merge during the second season, Paramount soundstages, backlots and other facilities became available for the production.

The studio's large " B Tank " housed the village sets for " A Private Little War ", which were built for another production and became availabe to Star Trek on short notice. These scenes were filmed on 6 October 1967 . The same village sets were used to film the Kohm village exteriors on Omega IV in " The Omega Glory ", shot on 19 December 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season Two , pp. 382, 576)

Paramount Director's Building in " Patterns of Force "

Many "outside" locations were filmed on the Desilu / Paramount studio lot, where real office buildings and other structures had been used for scenes in the series. The short newsreel footage of the police arrest in " Bread and Circuses " was filmed in front of a Paramount office building on 13 September 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season Two , p. 344)

For " Patterns of Force ", the Directors' Building and the Producers' Building were both used as the Ekosian headquarters. Another location which was used for the episode was the Producer's Park on the Paramount lot. At the time of filming it was a wide free area and used to stand-in during car scenes. It was accessible by automobiles. Later it became a parking lot and today it is a green park area surrounded by offices. The Schulberg Building was also part of the same episode, used for the Ekosian headquarters. Today it is used for administrative purposes. The Lubitsch Building can be seen in the background when Kirk and Spock meet an Ekosian soldier. These scenes were filmed on 29 November 1967 . ( These Are the Voyages: TOS Season Two , p. 547)
