Star Trek's Nielsen ratings while on NBC were low, and the network canceled it after three seasons and 79 episodes. Nevertheless, the show had a major influence on popular culture and it became a cult classic in broadcast syndication during the 1970s. This eventually lead to the show spawning a franchise, consisting of five additional television series, 11 theatrical films, and numerous books, games, and other products.

    Google Doodle celebrates Star Trek Anniversary

    Google pays homage to the 46th anniversary of the first airing of Star Trek with a doodle reminiscent of iconic scenes from the show.


    The 46th anniversary of the cult TV show Star Trek is Saturday but Google's celebrating the event early with a whimsical animated interactive 'doodle' posted to its main search page Friday.
    The doodle has four 'scenes.' It starts on the bridge of the Starship Enterprise populated with the letters in the search giant's name dressed in the uniforms made famous in the series first aired on September 8, 1966, with the episode 'The Man Trap.'

    If you click on the console, you'll hear some sound effects from the show. Sound effects, including the 'swoosh' sound of sliding doors on the starship, are sprinkled throughout the doodle. Click on the red 'o,' you'll go to a closeup of it. Clicking on the door at the right edge of the doodle takes you to the starship's transporter room.

    In the transporter room, clicking on the vent at the left edge of the panel reveals a surprise from one of the series' most popular episodes. Clicking the 'e' in the tableau prompts a tearful experience. (Note that 'e' wears the infamous red uniform, which usually marks a crew member for elimination).

  • Watch Maria Montessori
    Maria Montessori's birth anniversary marked by Google doodle

    Maria Montessori's 142nd birth anniversary has become the subject of the latest Google doodle. Maria Montessori was an Italian physician and educator, best known for the philosophy of education which bears her name. Her educational methods are in use today in public and private schools throughout the world.

    The Google doodle itself represents various tools that form an integral part of Montessori education methods.

    Maria Montessori was born on August 31, 1870, in Chiaravalle, Italy. Her family later moved to Rome in 1875, where she was enrolled in a public elementary school when she was 6. Montessori was not a particular brilliant student early on, but that during her teens. She graduated from the technical school Regia Scuola Tecnica Michelangelo Buonarroti at the age of 20 and decided to study medicine further on, which was unheard of for females at the time.

    After completing a pre-qualification course and overcoming a lot of hurdles, Maria Montessori enrolled for the medical program at the University of Rome in 1893. Here troubles didn't end there, as she faced discrimination from fellow students and faculty because of her gender. But Montessori carried on, winning an academic prize in her first year, and later securing a position as a hospital assistant, gaining early clinical experience. In her last two years she studied paediatrics and psychiatry, and worked in the paediatric consulting room and emergency service,

  • Watch Nelson Mandela
    Nelson Mandela's 96th Birth Anniversary Marked by a Google Doodle

    To speak of Nelson Mandela in mortal terms is trying to eclipse the shadow of a person who showed that it was easier to rebuild a nation using love and peace rather than hate and war. Honouring the same spirit of the late South African president, Google on Friday released its latest doodle celebrating the 96th birth anniversary of the charismatic leader. The interactive doodle showcases different stages of Mandela's life, along with quotes from his autobiography, The Long Walk to Freedom.
    Nelson Mandela, better known as 'Madiba' and 'Tata' amongst his South African supporters, was born July 18 1918 as Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela to the Thembu royal family. He died last year on December 5 after suffering from pulmonary infection - he was 95 years old then. Mandela, who was also a boxer in his younger days, first became a part of the ANC (African National Congress) and rose to prominence during the ANC's Defiance Campaign in 1952. He started his law practice in 1949, and was majorly involved in helping set free those members of the ANC convicted by the state.

    Mandela was unsuccessfully persecuted by the state up until the time he co-founded the armed wing of the ANC - Umkhonto we Sizwe (Spear of the Nation). He was arrested for a sabotage campaign against the apartheid government in 1962 - then convicted, tried and sentenced to life imprisonment. Nelson Mandela first served time at Robben Island, then at Pollsmoor prison and fi

    Clara Schumann 193rd birthday marked by a Google Doodle

    Clara Schumann's 193rd birth anniversary is the subject of the latest Google doodle. Clara Schumann was a German musician and composer. She was born on September 13, 1819 and was considered to be one of the most distinguished pianists of the Romantic era.
    Today's doodle has Clara Schumann surrounded by her eight children, all of whom are seen playing the piano. There is an effective use of lively colours - blue, red, yellow and green to form the letters 'Google'.

    Clara's parents separated when she was just four and was raised by her father Friedrich Wieck. She was inspired by her father and learnt the ropes of playing a piano. Her first performance was at the age of eight at the Leipzig home of Dr. Ernst Carus, director of a mental hospital at Colditz Castle. It is here that she met her future spouse and gifted pianist Robert Schumann. Schumann was nine years elder to Clara. He was so impressed with her performance that he left his studies to learn the piano from Clara's father.

    Clara was considered to be a child prodigy and her music was famous all across Europe. When Clara was eighteen, she performed a series of recitals in Vienna between December 1837 and April 1838. This is how Clara felt about composing music, 'Composing gives me great pleasure...there is nothing that surpasses the joy of creation, if only because through it one wins hours of self-forgetfulness, when one lives in a world of sound.&qu
