300 million year old ship. A time before the dinosaurs. Humbling is a word I'd use for the crew's reaction.
This was one of the better episodes of the series. The ship design was elegant. The animators obviously put a great deal of thought and effort into making some truly alien.
+Irate Computer User Did they say that the ship was 300 million years old? If so, then that "insect race" could have visited Earth during the Coal Age. They should have been searching for preserved Earth specimens. They could have discovered what the plant and animal Life from that time actually looked like.
This one still gives me the creeps, even after all these years. I first saw it during 1st run, 1973 or 1974, was maybe 7 years old. Notice how the energy collector got close to the crew while they were standing near it.
I was 12 years old & remember not being able to sleep the night before this 1st showed. I was so excited to see ST again. Saturday morning 8 September 1973 I got up and planted myself in front of our 1st color TV. I beat my younger brothers to it ( not ST fans). They stayed and watched it right after Kirk told Sulu to get into orbit around the dead star.
All of these stories were novelized in the “Star Trek Log” book series. I remember reading those when I was a kid in the ‘70s. I had never seen TAS so these were all new stories to me.
I remember this episode from when I was a kid. I can see a lot of the film, "Forbidden Planet" in this. The scene with the door being melted through is straight out of the film.
Thanks so much for the forbidden planet reference!!
This is my favorite TAS episode.
My favourite episode of Star Trek: TAS, "Beyond the Farthest Star"

I loved watching these growing up as a kid. good ole 70's
THIS WAS THE VERY BEST MOMENT IN STAR TREK EVAAARRRRRR
Saturday morning used to be awesome.
This is Season 1, Episode 1 of the TAS series known as Beyond the Farthest Star. I have the original Laser Disc series as well as the DVD series. I really enjoyed this episode and a great way to begin TAS.
Yes I remember watching these in the 70s when I was a little kid too
Stephen Lang - Sadly they didn't get a chance to check over the ship much, nor see if it was carrying cargo. I've read the novelization by Alan Dean Foster, and in there, Scotty does cut away a sample of the ship's hull for later analysis. But beyond that, there was no further study done. The alien ship was just a way to showcase the energy being. Also, sadly, the insect kid race was never seen again. That, to me, was a tragedy. Babylon 5 had "the first ones"; Star Trek could have had something similar with the insectoids. But they didn''t.

Mostly the difference between a a 23 and 1/2 min. cartoon facing scheduling and budget realities for weekly TV (and ST: TAS was one of the, if not the, most expensive Sat. morning cartoon shows ever made--$75,000 per episode, in 1973 dollars, over $400,000 today) vs. a book which can be more expansive and not be under the same budget and schedule crunch . . .
Star Trek, TAS had a number of old, powerful races: Megans (inspired Salem witch legends), alive when last seen, Lactrans (Eye of the Beholder), unknown species that inspired Aztec "Kukulkan" (How Sharper than a Serpent's Tooth, one individual survived to 23rd century, alive when last seen), unknown species that build "Shore Leave" planet (status uncertain but probably alive somewhere). Live action series had many, but perhaps the two closest examples would be the Organians (known to be alive), Metrons (known to be alive), the Preservers (status uncertain but probably alive) the Thasians (known to be alive), and the race represented by Trelane and his parents (possibly the Q, but this was never established in canon).
Wasn’t the insect ship destroyed by the entity when It seized the Enterprise? Seemed too that the insectoids were a very noble and altruistic race.
Star Trek:Enterprise featured the "XINDI" in season 3, a sentient race comprised of 5 DIFFERENT subspecies: Reptilians, Aquatics,Arboreals, Mammalians AND INSECTOIDS. Not sure if you knew that, but if not, check out the series. It's actually not too bad... Best wishes.
TOS often got somewhat Lovecraftian, but TAS used it's medium to full cosmic horrific effect. Whenever I read a description of R'lyeh or the Antarctic city of the Elder Things, my brain opts to use the set pieces from this episode... weird, alien pseudo-technological landscapes with strange, otherworldy geometry... "redolent of spheres and dimensions apart from ours..."
when the door glows red and electctricity appears it instantly reminded my of forbiddin planet.
A Fitting debut episode of the animated "STAR TREK" which made it's NBC Saturday morning premiere on Sept. 8,1973. in this episode "Beyond The Farthest Star" by Samuel A Peeples,who also wrote "Where No Man Has Gone Before" in 1965,was really a great episode! look for the scene,when the Enterprise crew,after beaming aboard the ship,brings the energy entity through the transporter-and the sound effects from Horta-Mahana Corp. who did all the Filmation sound and background music in the 70s,used the electronic pops that Ralph Hickey created at Twentieth Century Fox,where they were also heard in "FANTASTIC VOYAGE" (both the movie,and the Filmation series!)along with all the Irwin Allen TV shows,and various other things,along with James Doohan,who voiced most of the various characters in the Filmation cartoon series-and later played "Commander Carnivan" in Filmation's outstanding live action "JASON OF STAR COMMAND" segment,originally aired as "TARZAN AND THE SUPER 7" on CBS in Fall 1978!
Remember everything mentioned here so we'll. The ST-TAS episodes, Jason of Star Command (with Sid Haig as villain Dracos) and of course Tarzan. Fantastic time for cartoons.
Reminiscent of Forbidden Planet , the Krell died out but left thier buildings and technology behind , very Creative !
👽💚
Imaginative artwork and writing.
This was the premiere episode of the series. I was eight when it aired and it was a big deal (new Star Trek!). When I first heard the slowed-down voice that comes on at 3:00 it freaked me the hell out!
TAS is better than half of the other entries of the franchise. Only reason why it rated lower in rankings is because it was only on for a half hour….
the series was available on Netflix in The US earlier this year
"After all the millenniums this ship has been here?"
Spenser Graham It had a flat and they did not know how to change the tire.
I love the music!
This Animated Star Trek Tv Series brilliant the animation artwork music all tops!😃👩🚀👩🚀👩🚀🛸🚀👾👽⭐🌟🌕🌑🎼🎼🎼🎶🎶🎶
The sound for Spock's diagnostics in Sick Bay is used for an alien device near the beginning of the clip.
Star Trek was made for animation with its updated greek mythology in modern format. Future writers and animators should take note there is practically an infinite storyline and sketchboard possibilities here!
This was one of my top favorite episodes of the animated series.
But, would it really have been so hard to have drawn them wearing space suits like in "The Tholian Web"?
1:55 HOLD IT, MISTER! 😡
Who ordered you to start cutting up 300,000 year old walls before you were done exploring that room?!
The budget was not that great and it was cheaper to use pre-existing drawings rather than create drawings of space suits.
@@erichwise9936 Hmmm. Pre-existing drawings. I had not thought about that.
I had thought that if you were going to do animation, you could create a scene to look like anything you wanted.
I had not thought about how to they created an original background for the scene and then filled it in with stock file templates. 💡
@@TheNoiseySpectator Designing and drawing a spacesuited figure (or any figure) for one frame is one thing. Then you have to draw it multiple times, or at least parts of it multiple times, in different positions to animate it. It can be done, it can even be done right, but that takes time and money Filmation didn't always have. For one episode (One of Our Planets is Missing) the animators even resorted to using brief clips from another Filmation show for viewscreen scenes.
@@Donleecartoons Yes, from the dreaded "Lassie's Rescue Rangers."
Whether indirectly or not this episode helped bridge the gap between Planet of the Vampires and Alien.
FROM 00:00 TO 00 : 58 that music from "Beyond the Farthest Star" - GREAT SPACE MUSIC. The problem is the first 1 to 2 seconds of the music on "Beyond the Farthest Star" episode's ' No Known Form of Life ' scene is missing.
TAS is an underrated, underfunded show.
But I feel parts of this scene need a big EPILEPSY WARNING sticker on them.
Still, they had a funny notion about "dead stars". Stars turn into white dwarves, not oversized moons. A dead star complete with craters? The amount of time it takes a white dwarf to turn into a "black dwarf" is so long that it hasn't happened in our universe. Tens to hundreds of billions of years.
fantastic!!!!!!
0:53 Jim, you can be so insulting at times! Lumping Vulcans in with humans? Why, if we weren't friends, you'd find out how much emotional control I exert in your mere presence!
In 300 million years, only the Enterprise crew was able to really muck things up this badly. Yay?
Those lads had their ready brek!
when the st crew find the control room the music and the computer voice is the same one in the Lost in Space eposide Kidnapped in Space year 3.
I wonder if these guys were around with the Iconians... or when The First Humanoids explored the galaxy and concluded they were alone.
The MIchaelbaulion!
Fascinating...
This show was deep for a cartoon. We watched this between scooby-doo and Speed Buggy.
.
They WAYYYY over used the dramatic music in this show. I can remember watching it, and the music would just be monotonous, over and over.
This was on Nickelodeon for a short while. It was hard to understand the alien's message. He was talking too slow.
Ha ha ha... yeeeesssss... you’re still not invited to my wedding.....
Is TAS better than TOS?
Because I'm getting that feeling.
Both are good- Gene Roddenberry was involved with both programs, having created Star Trek. Lou Scheimer, Norm Prescott and Hal Sutherland of Filmation, did a remarkable job on the animated program with Roddenberry as exec. consultant. The original Star Trek ran, between 1966 and 1969, but the animated program ran between 1973 and 1975. Yes, the 5 year mission of the Starship Enterprise was "non-consecutive"!!!
Animation from Filmation...
get off my ship
Ha. Mr. Spock thinks he's so smart, but who is the Captain?
Too bad they brought the danger onboard the Enterprise!
"milleniums"? 0:18
Shatner should be made to come back to the studio and re-record all of his errors, 60 years later
