![DiNG iPhone Skins [Review] + a Chance to Win a Skin of Your Choice!](http://geekadelphia.com/wp-content/themes/magazeen/timthumb.php?src=http://geekadelphia.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/DSCN0177.jpg&w=69&h=54&zc=1)
With J.J. Abrams’s Star Trek almost upon us. (I already have my IMAX tickets!) It’s no surprise that they are capitalizing on this in any way shape and form. After all, that is the purpose of a summer blockbuster. (Wolverine Xtreme cappuccino anyone?) So after your done watching the new movie why not go to the Franklin Institute or as the kids call it now simply The Franklin and see Star Trek: The Exhibition. They will also be showing Star Trek on IMAX there as well.
Star Trek: The Exhibition features the world’s most comprehensive collection of authentic Star Trek objects and is supposed to “transport visitors into parallel universes of the future and past. This 12,500 foot exhibition, an amalgamation of all five television and ten film series spanning over 40 years, is the ultimate opportunity to connect with iconic Star Trek moments and characters, while celebrating the creative spirit of science fiction and science that gave rise to many of today’s modern marvels. From the Next Generation Bridge, to the Engine Room, to sitting in Kirk’s original captain’s chair, Star Trek: The Exhibition not only relives the legacy but invites you to be a part of the Enterprise!”
Sounds like they will have something for all Trekkies new and old. If this is anything like the Star Wars one they did last year it should not be a disappointment and trust me I will be checking this out as well. I am a big Star Wars fan but I have a fondness for the original series and the Next Generation.
The event will be running from May 16 to September 30 so you have plenty of time to check it out. But this is a ticketed event like the Star Wars so get your tickets here and hopefully they will have a tribble petting zoo.

Star Trek: The Exhibition at the Franklin,I found this exhibit very disappointing to the true Star Trek fan .The bridge was horrible ,there was no detail at all. Paid alot of money and could not even take photos.The employees at the Franklin were
also very rude . Save your time and money don’t bother.
I went to the Star Trek Exhibition, It was terrible. There were only 3 rooms of items , it was over priced, you can’t even take pictures. The will take a pic of you for 27 dollars. This a money grab I had an awful time, at 23 dollars a ticket it is way overpriced.
[...] hit up The Franklin Institute for a tour of the awesome Star Trek exhibit. Regardless of what some of you commenters might say, we here at Geekadelphia adored the exhibit, and highly recommend [...]
Star Trek at the Franklin Institute was a huge joke . Way overpriced ! The attendants saw everyone
walk in with cameras and then was very rude when telling us that you have to buy pics. They should of advertised no phototgraphy when we bought the tickets.Besides that went to exhibit and it was only a few tiny little models.Nothing like the real movie props .
I enjoyed the X to the Z exhibit, but the no pictures thing is kind of lame. We managed to sneak a few in on the bridge of the Enterprise though.
