Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaLater in 1967, physicist John Archibald Wheeler would popularize the term "black hole" to refer to the phenomenon Kirk describes as a black star, at the suggestion of a student. While several sources credit Wheeler for coining the phrase, it was used in science journals as early as 1963. The term is now credited to physicist Robert H. Dicke, comparing the phenomenon to a life prison dungeon in Calcutta known as the "Black Hole of Calcutta".
- GoofsIn Requiem for Methuselah (1969), Spock, during a mind meld, can order someone to "forget". It is unclear why he didn't meld with Captain Christopher for this purpose.

Lieutenant Colonel Fellini: I am going to lock you up for 200 years.

Fascinating Episode
In some ways this has similarities to Star Trek IV, the Voyage Home as we see an interaction between some of the USS Enterprise crew and the then contemporary (late 1960's) America. Watching this in 2020 is an incredible experience as we see footage of US fighter jets that at the time were at the forefront of technology but now hail from a lifetime ago. It's a real tribute to the show that you forget that this was made 50 years ago and believe that Kirk too is looking back in time. The scene where the fighter pilot spots the Enterprise is an iconic one and there are plenty of clever touches in this episode that make it one of the best in Season 1
