Snapshots: Austin Planetarium's Star Trek Premiere Party at Bob Bullock

Photos from Friday's Star Trek premiere party at the Bob Bullock Museum, hosted by Austin Planetarium. Attendees enjoyed Star Trek music performed by the Austin Wind Symphony, improv by Start Trekkin, and a panoply of Trek-themed beverages and snacks. Darth Vader also made a surprise appearance, no doubt stirring up hundreds of oft-rehashed debates over which sci-fi franchise is superior.

OK, I'll ask the obvious question: WTF does Darth Vader have to do with Star Trek? (Or did you mean King Vidor?)

The premiere party was excellent. Great planning and execution. Richard Garriot was an excellent speaker and was friendly and approachable after the movie screening.

Oh, and the movie delivered way beyond my expectation. I'm taking my Dad to see it at the iMax later this week.
