As a long-time fan of Star Trek and William Shatner, I must say that seeing the legendary Captain Kirk finally journeying to space in his 90s was a truly humbling experience. His perspective on life, the universe, and everything has been forever changed, and it’s fascinating to hear him share his thoughts on these profound matters.
After playing James T. Kirk in Star Trek for decades, William Shatner finally got to experience space personally. He found it much more somber and gloomy than he had ever imagined. This encounter significantly altered his perspective on the world, even though it happened late in his 90s. To this day, he continues to share his thoughts about space. In a recent interview, he humorously quipped that Earth might still be flat, keeping his characteristic wit intact.
Since space fans can’t request an update from Shatner on any future Trek productions, the actor disclosed during an interview on The Other Side Of Midnight that a certain group had approached him with a question concerning Earth. He then proceeded to share his findings with the host. It’s worth mentioning that his tone in this context is entirely sarcastic.
I was asked by the Flat Earth group to say something about whether the Earth was flat. And I have been around it, and my opinion is that the Earth is flat. Just so few people want to believe it. It’s flat. I’ve been there…They wanted to know whether the sun was a planet and if anyone was living there. There are things, entities living on the sun, sending out rays that warm our planet…I better not go any further.
The oldest person to ever be in space still has jokes, though I doubt it will stop any conspiracy that everyone who has been to space is lying. That said, some might be inclined to believe William Shatner more than others, considering he’s not shy about sharing any unpopular opinions about Star Trek. The actor famously said the new era of shows would have creator Gene Roddenberry “turning in his grave,” but later clarified to TopMob he was referring to romantic relationships.
Shatner delved deeper into discussing the space conspiracy theorist, drawing on his experience as an actor accustomed to encountering unusual cosmic theories. Given that he hosts Fox Nation’s show titled “Aliens Among Us“, it’s not hard to imagine that he often fields such questions.
It’s so bizarre. You deal with it all the time. I only on occasion make these forays into the madness that some people want to believe. The Flat Earth people. I’m sure you’ve heard of them. It’s bizarre.
Although William Shatner doesn’t endorse extreme theories about Earth’s shape, he has shown openness to certain advanced technologies, which might lead some to speculate that he might be receptive to unconventional ideas. Shatner has publicly stated his approval for creating an AI version of himself after his death, provided that he or his surviving relatives receive compensation for their participation in the project.
The actor has spent his days traveling to conventions and embarking on endeavors like space travel rather than watching his old Star Trek episodes with a Paramount+ subscription. In fairness, the actor has gone the bulk of his career without watching the majority of his performances as Captain Kirk, so I don’t blame him for not trying to play catch-up now in the later stages of his life. Traveling to space to experience the real thing might be a little more enjoyable than hunkering down for a binge of Trek, but honestly, it’d be a toss-up for me.
Space travel can be challenging, yet enjoying Captain Kirk’s adventures in ‘Star Trek’ is a breeze. Delve into episodes from the original series and movies available on Paramount+, though keep in mind you won’t find any stories about a flat Earth there.
