The visitor center, designed to look like a space port, is where Star Trek fans will find some serious items to geek out on. First there's the extensive collection of memorabilia donated by a generous collector. Spock calenders, Captain Kirk mugs, phasers, tricorders, Next Generation phones and alarm clocks fill cases and shelves.

They've constructed a replica of the Star Trek: The Next Generation bridge, complete with cardboard standups of classic and newer characters. They even have costumes from all the different Star Trek shows that you can put on and then take your photo with the characters.

Inside an adjoining room is a $100,000 virtual reality game in which you can man battle stations and blast enemies out of the sky.

The town as a whole even has a few alien-themed signs which I thought were awesome.
