A Proud Star Trek Tradition Since 1974

STARFLEET is the oldest continuously operating Star Trek Fan Organization in the world. Founded back in 1974, when there were only 79 original live-action Star Trek episodes and no movies yet, STARFLEET has grown over the years to thousands of members. We’re all about having fun, making friends, and keeping the ideals of Star Trek alive and healthy into the future.

A History of STARFLEET: The International Star Trek Fan Association, Inc.

By Fleet Captain Jeffery Higdon, Admiral Chris Wallace, Vice Admiral Scott Akers, Admiral Christopher L. Smith  and Commodore Jon Lane

 

It’s More Like a Saga

Filled with triumph and tragedy, highs and lows, political intrigue and strife, perseverance, and overcoming the odds again and again to emerge stronger and better, the long history of STARFLEET is as exciting and engrossing as anything you’re likely to find in a television mini-series or New York Times bestseller.

The following archive pulls no punches and hides no skeletons. After 35 years, STARFLEET has seen both the best and worst of what Star Trek fans are capable of. This wasn’t an idyllic journey where only good things happened. Like most enduring organizations, STARFLEET has had to deal with adversity and conflict from outside and from within. But endure we have, struggling back from the abyss on multiple occasions. But at each crossroad, STARFLEET emerged stronger and, hopefully, wiser.

We invite you to relive our journey, our trek, with us. You’ll find that we aren’t perfect, but in our imperfection, STARFLEET shines as uniquely…human.
