Plus it was considered groundbreaking in some of its concepts ( an alien as a first officer, and a woman officer ) - you may laugh but we are talking about the late 60`s, and it tried to depict an almost utopian future where alot of mans vices were overcome, and there was no more war, and they were trying to promote peace and harmony throughout the universe, albiet with the aid of cardboard planets, and foam rocks!
