From Alexander Courage's iconic Star Trek: The Original Series theme to the controversial "Faith of the Heart" from Enterprise, Star Trek's opening music has been inspiring fans for generations.

Join Chris Garis and three-time Emmy Award-winning meteorologist Katie Nickolaou in The Transporter Room as we explore the history, composers, controversies, and emotional impact of the theme songs from five classic Star Trek series: The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise.

We uncover the controversy surrounding Gene Roddenberry's unused lyrics, discuss why The Next Generation reused Jerry Goldsmith's music, explore Deep Space Nine's evolving opening, revisit Voyager's Emmy-winning theme, and debate whether Enterprise's "Faith of the Heart" deserves all the criticism it received.
