'Engineer of the Future': Star Trek's 'Scotty,' James Doohan, Presents at NASA Goddard
Ғылым және технология
Famous for his portrayal of Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott -- "Scotty" -- on Star Trek, James Doohan visited NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, in March 1992.
Doohan gave his presentation (entitled "Engineer of the Future") to a standing-room-only crowd in Goddard's Building 8 auditorium before answering questions from the audience.
Doohan's appearance was not quite four months after "Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country" hit theaters, and little more than half-a-year before he reprised his role in an episode of "Star Trek: The Next Generation."
Tom Huber, then Goddard's director of engineering, introduced Doohan, whose lecture was presented under the auspices of the Goddard Engineering Colloquium.
This video recording of the presentation was digitized in June 2022 from a Betacam cassette copy found in the archives of the Office of Communications at Goddard.

What a Star! Amazing that Kirk recently tried to visit him in space but couldn't get high enough ... a cry came from the heavens "I'm giving her all she's got Captain" Thanks so much for this video, it is priceless
There should be a giant statue of Gene Roddenberry erected. Half of what we take for granted in modernity were conceived of and built by scientists and engineers that directly say their inspiration came from star trek. He literally has the largest impact on the modern age
5:40 the main speaker just gives up, and tears his speech papers in two. lol.
James Doohan's ashes are now orbiting the Earth, just as he would have wanted.
Scotty.. true WW2 heroes and brilliant actor
Rest in Peace Scotty
