10 Greatest Star Trek Moments In 2025

As Star Trek nears its sixtieth birthday, we have already seen the ramping up of marketing and events for 2026. If one is old enough to remember Trek's fiftieth birthday, one might recall that very little was done. Star Trek Beyond was released in theatres, and Star Trek: Discovery was in production ahead of its 2017 release. 

That was about it.

For the next big decade, however, Star Trek seems to be warming up for a busy year. January sees the arrival of Starfleet Academy, with Strange New Worlds' fourth season coming later in the year. Off the small screen, startrek.com has launched a 60th-specific section of their site, dedicated to bringing all things birthday-related into focus.

The Lego Group's USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D packaging also bore a 60th logo, confirming that the celebrations are being marked by more than just digital releases. Star Trek will feature prominently in the Rose Parade, in Pasadena, California, with a float highlighting the theme 'Space For Everybody.' George Takei, Tig Notaro, Rebecca Romijn, and Karim Diané will also be in attendance. 

The focus on celebrating Star Trek's massive milestone has been a breath of fresh air in 2025, not simply because of the lack of coverage for the 50th, but in the fact that it shows a renewed interest and confidence in the long-running franchise. Star Trek seems to be gearing up for a renewed lease on life if all of the marketing is to be believed.
