Star Trek Thats the Spock T-Shirt

This Thats the Spock design comes from Star Trek: The Original Series, the 1966 show NBC cancelled after three seasons and syndication turned into a religion. Nichelle Nichols planned to quit after the first season until Martin Luther King Jr. told her that a Black woman on the bridge of a starship was worth staying for. She stayed, and spent years afterward recruiting astronauts for NASA, among them Sally Ride and Guion Bluford. Star Trek premiered on NBC in September 1966 and was cancelled after three seasons and 79 episodes. Syndication did what the network would not. Reruns built an audience large enough that NASA named its first space shuttle Enterprise after a write-in campaign, and a show that failed on first broadcast became thirteen films and more than a dozen series.

The transporter was invented to avoid the cost of landing the ship every episode. Martin Luther King Jr. personally persuaded Nichelle Nichols not to leave the show. This one is printed on a carolina blue unisex t-shirt in sizes S through 3XL. Grab it for yourself or for the friend who still argues about the Kobayashi Maru.
