LOS ANGELES � �Star Trek� has been beamed aboard the International Space Station.

Paramount Pictures said they transferred director J.J. Abrams� sci-fi franchise reboot to NASA�s Mission Control in Houston. The movie was uplinked to the space station on Thursday.
NASA astronaut Michael Barratt watched the film on a laptop Friday inside the Unity module.
The 50-year-old astronaut said he remembered �watching the original �Star Trek� series and, like many of my NASA co-workers, was inspired by the idea of people from all nations coming together to explore space.�
