Question #2: Three real-life astronauts for NASA also served aboard Star Trek’s U.S.S. Enterprise: two on the original ship (NX-01 from “Star Trek: Enterprise”) and one on the Enterprise-D (from “Star Trek: The Next Generation”). Can you name them all? And for a bonus point, can you tell us what else those three NASA astronauts have in common (other than being cool NASA astronauts who were also on “Star Trek”)? — Mel Powell, USA
Answer: Mae Jemison, Mike Fincke, and Terry Virts
Bonus answer: They each flew on exactly one Space Shuttle mission (different missions), and all three were on board the Endeavour.
