On the evening of September 8, 1966, over 10 million people tuned in to NBC to see the premiere of a new television series called STAR TREK. From the moment they heard “Space, the final frontier…these are voyages of the Starship Enterprise…” millions were hooked. The series would run for only 3 seasons, but the show’s success in syndication would inspire several major motion pictures and several additional television series. Through it all, STAR TREK has become an icon of pop culture.

19) 1999 Lt. Commander Worf

 

Worf, the first Klingon to serve as a Starfleet officer, served as a Lieutenant on the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard, and quickly climbed through the ranks to become a Lieutenant Commander, as the Operations Officer on Deep Space Nine, under the command of Captain Benjamin Sisko. Born on the Klingon Homeworld, the eldest son of Mogh, Worf was raised by humans because his family was killed at the Battle of Kittamer when the Romulans destroyed the Klingon outpost because they were betrayed by the Duras family. After accepting discommendation, Worf eventually regained the honor of his family by killing Duras with his Bat’leth – the same weapon his father once used, as featured in this Star Trek Hallmark Ornament. Worf, like most Klingons, values of honor and loyalty above all else, as demonstrated by his most famous quote from Star Trek: The Next Generation, where he said: “If winning is not important, then why keep score?” … spoken like a TRUE Klingon
