Starship Enterprise model from Star Trek The Motion Picture on display...

When Kirk, Spock and the crew of the Starship Enterprise made the leap from television to the big screen in 1979's Star Trek: The Motion Picture, this model of the iconic USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) was used to help create the special effects in the sci-fi classic.

In addition to the cool model of the USS Enterprise, there was also a phaser pistol prop used in the movie sequel (and some would argue the best Star Trek movie), The Wrath of Khan.
