What’s better than getting to gawp at some painstakingly recreated Star Trek ship models and sets? Getting to do that while Q himself regales you about how cool it is to do exactly that.

That’s pretty much the premise of “Return to Tomorrow,” a new video taking a look at some of the latest virtual recreations of Star Trek props, sets, and models hosted by the Roddenberry Archive. Over the past few years, the archive has worked with “holographic renderers” OTOY to create a digital Star Trek museum, painstakingly replicating sets from across the entire series, from the original Trek to contemporary shows like Discovery, Picard, and Lower Decks that people can take virtual strolls through, either online or through apps on VR headsets.

But if you just wanted to chill out and watch a video instead, this is a pretty great option, if only because you get to listen to John De Lancie, the man behind the irascible Q, poetically discuss why Star Trek design speaks to us in so many forms as it’s developed over the years.

I was thinking the other day about how I would love to explore some Star Trek ships in VR.
