Star Trek Continuum

Founded in , the site was originally named Star Trek Continuum and was exclusively accessible through the .

StarTrek.com

StarTrek.com was registered by 1994. (via The Age (Melbourne, Australia), p.30.)

In the VOY Season 1 DVD special feature, Launching Voyager on the Web, the history of StarTrek.com was spotlighted, with then site Supervising Producer Marc Wade providing explanatory commentary. Using a modified screen capture from the episode , a computer shows the website on its screen. The site and its structure were also briefly discussed in the TNG Season 2 DVD special feature, "Mission Overview Year Two - Gene Roddenberry".

Tim Gaskill served as Editorial Director of the site and was later engaged as Senior Content Producer from  to .

During the airing of , a number of podcasts were produced for the site, serving as audio commentaries, with an additional one for  to boot. Those not included on later released home media formats, The Director's Edition being one of them, are currently preserved on . The podcast phenomenon was introduced by Larry Nemecek in 1996, who served as producer, editor and contributor on the site.

In , a Flash-animated series called "The Young Hunter" was hosted on the site.

On , it was announced that the entire production team responsible for StarTrek.com had been laid off, including Star Trek alumni Nemecek and  David C. Fein (Member of the Board – hence The Director's Edition podcast), effective immediately. The layoffs came as the result of "restructuring" at CBS Interactive.

Site Relaunch 
After an extensive period of inactivity (during which 2009's  was produced and released), CBS Interactive announced on  that a new version of StarTrek.com would launch in the summer of 2010.   From the moment the site was relaunched, Ian Spelling became until 2019 one its more prominent staffers, essentially becoming Nemecek's successor.

The newly-designed site was created by Funny Garbage and was launched as a beta version on . It retained little of the original database content (much of it written by Nemecek) as previously displayed on the site – presumed discarded save for those pages diligent fans have preserved on the Wayback Machine internet archive – , and what little had been retained severely edited for brevity and curtailed. New was that the site now featured news headlines from other major Star Trek sites, fan contributions, and full-length episode streams of  and  (geo-restricted to the United States).  Reliance on third parties for content had the additional advantage of not having to maintain as an elaborate editorial site staff as had been necessary for the previous incarnation. Already bearing little, if any, resemblance with the original website, a further major difference between the old and new, commercialized version of the site has been the radical emphasis shift from information to Star Trek merchandising. This in particular did not sit well with parts of the fanbase, acquainted with the original version, as evidenced on several Star Trek blogs, among others that of , together with  two of the outsiders the new StarTrek.com gets its contents from.

Star Trek Shop 

Through its online Star Trek Shop, the site has retailed many licensed Star Trek-related items including novelties, collectibles, toys, artwork, housewares, jewelery, electronics, and clothing. All products are sold on the site by Delivery Agent, Inc. of Crozet, VA, USA.
