The Evolution of the Star Trek Warp Jump [Video]

Enterprise KHAAAAN star trek Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan Warp Jumps

Excellent video illustrating the evolution of the Star Trek warp jump as seen in every Star Trek movie since 1979 via Gizmodo. For my money, the coolest is the jump from ~~KHAAAAN!~~ Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982), depicted above.

Ummmmmm…. I hate to be a bother, but, the Warp jump you have listed above as being from KAAAAAN! is actually from TMP, not WOK. The person who created the video has used every Warp jump sequence from all the movies, it seems, and there were quite a few from TMP. The first Warp jump from WOK in the video is actually the fourth one, which is much cooler than the first three because it was made by ILM, who were the Masters of the Universe in that day.

14 of the Best Geekiest Beers

Given beer's pervasive place in human history, it's not surprising that the geeky pastimes of drinkers would eventually rub off on the beers themselves. The result is a veritable cornucopia of nerdy beers, 14 of which are right here.

Eric Limer I swear under my breath A LOT. This must make people near by me very uncomfortable. That being said, I have no intentions of stopping.

James Plafke I know global warming is scary, but not having a winter was pretty cool. I didn't have to spend money on shoes for the snow.
