A MARTÍNEZ, HOST:

Good morning. I'm A Martínez. The USS Enterprise is now available for virtual tours. "Star Trek's" iconic starship has been brought to life through a web portal. It explores its different versions throughout time using a 360-degree 3D model. Now, one downside - the models do not have any characters in them. It's just about the ship. However, six decades since the original series premiere, the fandom continues to live long and prosper.
