Presented in a rare 35mm print, the 1986 film Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home finds Admiral James T. Kirk (William Shatner) and the original crew beaming down to one of their strangest destinations, 20th century San Francisco, to save Earth from an alien probe. Guess who are the only creatures who can communicate with it? Directed and co-written by Leonard Nimoy (who also plays Spock), this Trek is one of the most fondly remembered of the series. Film 119 min., rated PG.

This presentation is part of Science on Screen℠, a series pairing film screenings with lively scientific discussions. The series is made possible by a grant from the Coolidge Corner Theatre and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
