Trivia question:  The United Space Ship Enterprise's second captain was 
James T. Kirk.  Who was her first captain?  Extra credit:  What does the 
"T" in Kirk's name stand for?  The first captain (other than Robert April 
who served for a short time as Enterprise's captain during her shakedown 
cruise) to command Enterprise after its commissioning was Christopher 
Pike, played by Jeffrey Hunter in the dual episode entitled "Menagerie," 
which was cobbled together from scenes taken here and there from the 
pilot, called "The Cage."  The "T" in James "T." Kirk stands for 
"Tiberias."
