This isn't some quaint little convention we're talking about here. Not hardly. This is "Star Trek The Next Generation Ultimate Xperience," featuring the stars of the show, Jonathan Frakes, Levar Burton, Michael Dorn, Marina Sirtis, Brent Spiner, Denise Crosby, and Gates McFadden. Who will be the guest moderator for the show? None other than William Shatner. Get all the details here.

The Star Trek The Next Generation Ultimate Xperience is coming to the Salt Lake Comic Con at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City. The Comic Con runs April 17 - 19, with the Star Trek event on Thursday, April 17th, from 6:30 pm to 8:00.

The good news for Western Colorado residents is the event is only 284 miles away. Broken down, some estimates put that at four and a half hours driving time. That estimate, of course, takes into account you don't stop to pee ever 15 minutes. In my case, Grand Junction to the Salt Palace is more like six hours. For your convenience, we've included a map.
