About This Quiz

Beam me up, Scotty! We're calling in our Trekkies with this quiz! Since the beginning of Star Trek in 1966, millions of people have been tuning in to watch what's going on in the future galactic world. From The Original Series to Enterprise, which Star Trek generation are you?

The magic of Star Trek began in 1966 with the premiere of the TV series. It followed a crew of people on board a spacecraft as they traveled through the Milky Way galaxy. Immediately from its start, the show gained massive fans, and while this is due to its innovative plot, the cast sure helped. Star Trek: The Original Series was led by William Shatner as Captain Kirk, and Leonard Nimoy and DeForest Kelley also starred as Spock and Bones, respectively.

The success of the show would lead to other series. It was followed by The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and the prequels Enterprise and Discovery. Which generation do you belong in?

Are you like Captain Kirk in The Original Series? The leader of the Star Trek pack, this pioneer is adventurous and ready to discover what's...never been discovered.

You might belong with Jean Luc Picard in The Next Generation. Played by Patrick Stewart, this leader was elegant, but knew how to party - like you!

Rather than Kirk or Picard, are you more like Janeway or Lorca? Answer these questions, and we'll tell you which Star Trek generation you belong in!
