Space. The final frontier. OK, actually it's just my astronomy textbook. It's time for another episode of Truth or Fail, the YouTube trivia game where you are given two facts, one true, one false, and you must decide which one is true. If you guess wrong, you fail. Ooh, it sounds so fun, let's get started! I'm Lauren Field a.k.a. laurennotjordan and I will be hosting this episode of Truth or Fail, Star Trek: The Original Series edition. What's not to love about Star Trek: The Original Series? William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, a Scottish guy who most of the time sounded more Indian than Scottish. Again, what's not to love?

OR

Fact number two: Many of the writers for Star Trek: The Original Series were actually women.
