This Is How Star Trek Invented Fandom

Star Trek fan Vic has spent $150,000 to recreate TOS: its premise is to complete the Enterprise's unfinished five-year mission. He's driving force behind Star Trek Continues and estimates he'll spend all his money on it or paying bills. The fan community is self-cannibalizing, with fans creating products that could be sold by the business, but Vic sees this as a way to stay engaged with the franchise.
