CBS made it known that they’ll be releasing Star Trek on the HD-DVD format. There currently isn’t a release date for the set called Star Trek – The Final Frontier but take a look at the feature list below.

  • Updated Visual and Audio Effects
  • Remastered in HD from the original negative.
  • Interactive Feature: Explore the exterior of the Enterprise in your own shuttle craft , going up close and personal with every inch of the famous ship.
  • “Starfleet Access”: Interactive pop-up icons throughout each episode offering behind-the-scenes information, trivia and lore; icon topics include: Science, Lifeforms, Technology, Ships and General Trivia
  • 8mm behind-the-scenes home movies shot by “extra extraordinaire,” Billy Blackburn, with his nostalgic, amusing and poignant look back on the filming of the series.
  • Side-by-side comparisons between the original and the updated sequences.
  • A look into the recording studio remastering the theme and episode soundtrack
  • Documentaries on the remastering process
