I have no idea how they did it....we only went once, it was a while ago, and it all happened so fast.....but we totally got transported. I almost died, it was so cool.

Hope this finds a home somewhere.

No, it's much, much cooler than a Pepper's Ghost illusion.

You are standing in a rectangular room with a bunch of other people in the 21st century. There is a bright flash of light, then darkness, then you are all standing in the round transporter bay of the Enterprise in the 24th century. The walls, ceiling, and floor are all completely changed but you experience no sense of motion. And this all happens in less than two seconds. It is an absolutely stunning effect!

I took the behind the scenes tour (which I highly recommend, but ONLY AFTER going on the regular version first!) and learned how it is done. It's absolutely brilliant.

This is kinda old news... there's already been some "presell" of bits of decor.

Last time I was in Vegas I stayed at the Hilton, butt didn't do it becasue the only Star Trek I know is from the original series and figured I wouldn't most of it.

I wanted to see this attraction just to see how they beamed guests from one place to another. At least, that's what I heard happens...

You'll have to go to Vegas before it closes...

It's soooo cool!

I thought about researching it but decided against it.

I was transported for reals.

Well I must say, this is VERY distressing. Very distressing indeed! Someone actually reads the Wil Wheaton blog.
