Richard's comment:
I have seen all the star trek films & TV shows back in my childhood days I'm so excited to see the new Star Trek movie. I didnt know it was like going back in the beginning when Captain James T Kirk & Spock were young.
Richards Own Star Trek Day Story:
I woke up, I had breakfast, and I was listening to Nickelback & Theory of a Dead Man on my IPod whilst eating my breakfast.
At college I had an uneasy moment with a friend I was touching the board when I was with Kate Classen doing the blag mag 2009 and I lost my cool because I was being tormented.
I was writing about my “Christmas Diary 2008,” then at lunch break I was with Patrick and he helped me to play the electric piano.
On YouTube I was watching “Risky Business – Bob Seger – Old Time Rock And Roll.”
In Jan session I was doing budgeting about my months shopping bill. My parents came to pick me up early and were waiting for me.
When I got home I went on the computer looking at information about a TV movie called “The Magic 7” with Michael J. Fox & John Candy.
That evening we went to Cineworld Sheffield to see “Hanna Montana the Movie” with Miley Cyrus and “Star Trek” with Chris Pine as James T. Kirk. On the way home we called at KFC and I had a Spicy Chicken Panini.
I got home just in time to watch “Pushing Up Daisies” with Lee Pace, Anne Friel & Chi McBride.
Star Trek (2009) Plot:
In the year 2387, Romulus is threatened by a supernova. Ambassador Spock pilots a Vulcan ship carrying "red matter" which can create a gravitational singularity, drawing the supernova into a black hole. However, Spock is too late, and Romulus is destroyed. Captain Nero of the Romulan mining ship Narada attempts to exact revenge on Spock for letting Romulus be destroyed, but both ships are caught in the black hole's event horizon, traveling into the past and creating an alternate reality from the original Star Trek series. The Narada arrives 153 years before the supernova, and immediately attacks a nearby Federation starship, the USS Kelvin. As the Kelvin is evacuated, acting-Captain George Kirk is forced to stay behind to provide cover for the fleeing shuttlecraft, dying moments after his son, James Tiberius Kirk, is born. When Ambassador Spock arrives 25 years later, Nero captures his ship and the remaining red matter. Spock is left marooned on the planet Delta Vega near Vulcan so that he may witness the destruction of his homeworld.
After growing up without a father, Kirk has become an intelligent, reckless, and cynical young man. Captain Christopher Pike, dismayed that Kirk is wasting his intelligence on self-destructive behavior, tells him of his late father's heroic efforts and convinces him to join Starfleet. At Starfleet Academy, Kirk befriends fellow cadets Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy and Uhura. In his third year at the Academy, Kirk is accused of cheating on the Kobayashi Maru test by the test's current programmer, Commander Spock. In the midst of the ensuing hearing, during which Kirk is placed on academic suspension, Starfleet receives a distress signal from Vulcan. The cadets are mobilized to help man the ships in orbit. Acting as his attending physician, Dr. McCoy brings Kirk on board the USS Enterprise, to which both Spock and Uhura have been assigned under Pike's command.
Kirk, recognizing similarities between the distress call from Vulcan and the encounter that destroyed the Kelvin, warns Pike that the fleet is heading into a trap. The Enterprise arrives late, by which time the fleet has been wiped out. The Narada is drilling into Vulcan's core. Nero disables the Enterprise and orders Pike to surrender himself via shuttlecraft. Pike agrees, leaving Spock in command and Kirk as first officer. En route to the Narada, Pike arranges for Kirk, Hikaru Sulu, and Chief Engineer Olsen to perform an orbital skydive onto the drilling platform and destroy it. Olsen is killed, but Kirk and Sulu stop the drill. However, it has already reached the planet's core, and Nero launches red matter into the core, collapsing the planet into a black hole. Spock rescues most of the planet's elders, including his father, but his mother dies, along with nearly six billion Vulcans. Spock estimates only ten thousand Vulcans are left. Nero intends to do the same to Earth, and tortures Pike for the command codes to Earth's perimeter defenses.
Kirk attempts to convince Spock to travel to Earth to stop Nero, but Spock maroons him on Delta Vega and orders the ship to rendezvous with the rest of the fleet. On Delta Vega, Kirk encounters the elderly Ambassador Spock, who relays the future's events through a mind meld and insists that Kirk must become captain of the Enterprise. The two travel to a nearby Starfleet outpost where they meet the talented Montgomery Scott. Spock helps Scott refine his equations for "transwarp transportation" to allow Kirk and Scott to beam aboard the Enterprise. Kirk manages to anger Spock, forcing him to cede command due to being emotionally compromised. Spock, Scott, and Pavel Chekov devise a plan to bring the Enterprise to Titan and take advantage of Saturn's magnetosphere to disguise their presence, allowing them to beam Kirk and Spock aboard the Narada unnoticed. While Kirk rescues Pike, Spock retakes the future Ambassador Spock's ship, using it to destroy the drill and lure the Narada away from Earth before piloting a collision course into the Narada. The Enterprise arrives and beams Kirk, Pike, and Spock away before the collision, which releases the remaining red matter and creates a black hole within the Narada's superstructure. Kirk offers to help rescue Nero and his crew, but the Romulan refuses. The Narada is torn apart, and the Enterprise narrowly escapes the same fate by igniting the ship's warp drive reactor cores, the resulting explosion pushing them clear.
Kirk is promoted to captain of the Enterprise, relieving the newly promoted but wheelchair-bound Admiral Pike. While searching for his father, Spock encounters his older self in a hangar; Ambassador Spock is departing to help found a new colony for the remaining Vulcans. Spock informs his older self of his intention to leave Starfleet to help in the rebuilding. Ambassador Spock tells his younger self that he and Kirk need each other and that he should remain in Starfleet. Taking his older self's advice, Spock does so, becoming first officer under Kirk's command. As the Enterprise warps away, Leonard Nimoy recites a version of the "Where no man has gone before" monologue.
