Go On Location: Star Trek Filming Locations in Los Angeles
Updated on March 21, 2017
![star trek vi filming locations Donald C. Tillman Water Reclamation Plant](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/listography_image/public/media/Activities/Points%20of%20Interest/donald-c-tillman-water-reclamation-plant.jpg)
Star Trek is turning 50! The franchise’s first export, The Original Series (TOS) , first hit the small screen on Thursday, Sept. 8, 1966. It continued for three seasons, airing 79 episodes, before proceeding to launch a prolific legacy that includes six spin-offs (the latest, Star Trek: Discovery , premieres in 2017) and 13 feature films, most of which were shot in and around Los Angeles. Read on for a list of ten spots from the franchise, all of them tourist-friendly, easily accessible and inviting you to boldly go where Star Trek crews have gone before.
The Pico House
![Pico House | Photo by Lindsay Blake Pico House](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/Activities/Points%20of%20Interest/pico-house-facade.jpg)
Originally built as a luxury hotel built between 1869 and 1870, the Pico House has the distinction of being L.A.’s first three-story building. Though it's no longer a hotel, the stately structure still stands today and is part of the El Pueblo de Los Angeles State Historic Monument . Commissioned by Pio Pico, a former governor of Alta California, and designed by Ezra F. Kysor, the Italianate-style building was considered one of the city’s finest lodgings during its early years and boasted an aviary, courtyard, 21 ballrooms, bathrooms for both sexes on each floor, and a French eatery. The versatile building features four distinct façades - as such, it has been a favorite of location scouts over the years.
In the Season 5 finale of The Next Generation titled “Time’s Arrow: Part 1,” the historic property and its surroundings masqueraded as 19th century San Francisco. (For “Time’s Arrow: Part 2,” the newly completed New York Street backlot set at Paramount Studios represented S.F.) The Pico House’s brick-clad rear edifice regularly served as the “Sacramento” CBI Headquarters on The Mentalist . That same side of the structure was utilized as a Mexican police station in the Season 1 episode of Criminal Minds titled “Machismo,” while the building’s west end stood in for the “San Francisco” apartment where Sam (Pam Dawber) and Patti (Rebecca Schaeffer) live on My Sister Sam . The site also appeared in JLS’ “Everybody in Love” music video, as well as an episode of Ghost Hunters . The neighboring Olvera Street , aka the birthplace of Los Angeles, is a bustling open-air marketplace and popular tourist attraction featuring shops, historic buildings and restaurants. The picturesque piazza is also a popular screen star, having appeared in such productions as Lethal Weapon 3, 90210 and the 1921 Charlie Chaplin classic, The Kid .
Griffith Observatory
![Leonard Nimoy Event Horizon | Photo by Justin Donais, © Friends Of The Observatory Leonard Nimoy Event Horizon](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/Culture/Museums/griffith-observatory-leonard-nimoy-event-horizon.jpg)
One of L.A.’s most recognizable buildings and certainly one of its most popular filming locations, the Griffith Observatory is perched 1,134 feet above sea level in Griffith Park. The three-domed structure was originally designed in 1935 by architects Frederick M. Ashley and John C. Austin and boasts a plethora of attractions, including a Foucault pendulum, a Zeiss refracting telescope, a triple beam solar telescope, a Tesla coil, and a planetarium. The handsome site has appeared in countless productions over the years, including Rebel Without a Cause, Beverly Hills, 90210, The Terminator , and The Wonder Years .
In the Season 3 episode of Voyager titled “Future’s End: Part 1,” astronomer Rain Robinson (Sarah Silverman) works at the observatory, which plays itself. The locale also boasts another Star Trek connection. The Leonard Nimoy Event Horizon , a 190-seat presentation theatre that was largely funded by the late actor and his wife, Susan Bay-Nimoy, was added to the site in 2006. The space features regular showings of The Once and Future Griffith Observatory , a 24-minute film narrated by Nimoy. It also hosts live performances and demonstrations and serves as a classroom. The Griffith Observatory, which welcomes more than 2 million visitors each year, is open Tuesday through Sunday. Admission to the building and its surrounding grounds, which offer stunning views of L.A., is free and no reservations are required. Tickets to the various planetarium performances can be purchased onsite.
Bronson Canyon
![Bronson Caves in Griffith Park | Photo by Lindsay Blake Bronson Caves in Griffith Park](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/Activities/Points%20of%20Interest/bronson-caves.jpg)
A short pathway at the western edge of Griffith Park leads from a public parking area to a series of caves that was featured on Star Trek a copious number of times. Known as Bronson Canyon , or Bronson Caves, the site is the remnant of a former 1903 rock quarry that was established to provide pavement for Los Angeles city streets. When the facility was shuttered in the 1920s, several small caves were left behind. The rocky caverns and craggy surrounding canyon have provided Hollywood with a versatile landscape ever since. The area proved especially fruitful for the Star Trek franchise, masking as several locales including the Rura Penthe mines in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country , a Delta Quadrant planet on Voyager , and both a Bajoran settlement and the planet Kesprytt III on The Next Generation . Though seemingly desolate and remote, Bronson Canyon can be reached via a quick and easy walk that measures less than 2/3 of a mile round-trip. The caves are open daily from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. Though striking in and of themselves, they also boast a fabulous view of the Hollywood Sign.
Ferndell Nature Museum
![Fern Dell Nature Center | Photo by Lindsay Blake Fern Dell Nature Center](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/activities/parks/fern-dell-nature-center.jpg)
Situated at the southwestern tip of Griffith Park, Ferndell Nature Museum is a 20-acre botanical oasis that features a quarter-mile meandering trail, 20-plus waterfalls and 17 footbridges, all canopied by more than 50 fern and tropical plant varieties. The shaded, breezy spot has long been a favorite haven for Angelenos, especially on warm summer days. The idyllic glen should be recognizable to Trekkies as the gardens of a Bajoran monastery from two Deep Space Nine episodes – Season 1’s “In the Hands of the Prophets” and Season 2’s “The Circle.” Ferndell also popped up as a woodland simulation on the holodeck in the pilot episode of The Next Generation , “Encounter at Farpoint.”
The wooded retreat has also appeared in plenty of non- Star Trek -related productions, including the 2012 comedy Ruby Sparks and the Season 2 episode of Castle titled “A Deadly Game.” Ferndell is open to the public from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. Don’t miss Trails Café, an outdoor eatery located just outside of Ferndell’s north entrance, which serves espresso drinks and teas, as well as a sumptuous selection of homemade pastries, sandwiches and quiches.
The Studios at Paramount
![Brownstone Set on New York Street at Paramount Studios | Photo by Lindsay Blake Brownstone Set on New York Street at Paramount Studios](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/Activities/Studio%20Tours/paramount-studios-brownstone-set.jpg)
Both the unaired and aired pilot of The Original Series - titled “The Cage” and “Where No Man Has Gone Before,” respectively - were shot at Desilu Studios (now The Culver Studios) in Culver City. Once the show was picked up, filming moved to Desilu-Gower, which was acquired by Paramount Pictures in 1967 and today is part of The Studios at Paramount . Stages 31 and 32 were utilized for most interior filming during TOS' three-year run. Several other areas of the lot also made appearances on the show, including the Schulberg Building, which masked as Ekosian headquarters in the Season 2 episode “Patterns of Force.” Other productions in the franchise, including The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager and Enterprise , also made use of Paramount and its backlot, specifically the vast five-acre New York Street , which boasts eight different cityscapes representing areas of the Big Apple such as SoHo, the Upper East Side, and Washington Square.
Originally established in 1926, The Studios at Paramount is the oldest major studio still located in Hollywood. The site offers three different tours that range from 2 to 4 hours in length, during which visitors are invited to walk through the historic backlot, venture onto working soundstages, visit various production facilities, and catch a true glimpse of Hollywood in action. Tours are given daily, including weekends. Advance reservations are recommended.
Huntington Library, Art Collections, & Botanical Gardens
![North Vista Lawn at The Huntington | Photo by Lindsay Blake North Vista Lawn at The Huntington Library](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/Culture/Architecture%20%26%20Gardens/huntington-library-north-vista-lawn.jpg)
The Huntington Library, Art Collection and Botanical Gardens is the former estate of railroad tycoon Henry Huntington and is one of L.A.’s best-loved attractions and most popular filming locations. The gorgeous 207-acre site consists of a world-class art collection with works by Thomas Gainsborough, Edward Hopper and Rembrandt; a sprawling expanse of immaculately landscaped grounds divided into Japanese, Chinese, rose, and Zen gardens; and a library containing more than 375,000 rare books, including a Gutenberg Bible and a first folio edition of William Shakespeare’s collected plays.
The Huntington has popped up in several Star Trek productions. The Lily Ponds Lawn masked as the grassy stretch of the planet Edo where Wesley Crusher (Wil Wheaton) was almost killed for “disturbing new plants” in the Season 1 episode of TNG titled “Justice.” Commander Riker (Jonathan Frakes) and Counselor Troi (Marina Sirtis) also picnicked on that lawn in the Season 3 episode titled "Ménage à Troi." The Huntington was also featured in the Deep Space Nine episodes “Emissary” and “Meridian." The picturesque property has also appeared in such hits as Bridesmaids, A Cinderella Story, Iron Man 2, Indecent Proposal, First Daughter and Charlie’s Angels .
Descanso Gardens
![Oak Forest at Descanso Gardens | Photo by Ritchie Porch, Discover Los Angeles <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/porch-photos/7451769264/" target="_blank">Flickr Pool</a> Oak Forest at Descanso Gardens](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/activities/descanso-gardens-oak-forest.jpg)
The 160-acre Descanso Gardens was originally developed in 1936 by Los Angeles Illustrated Daily News publisher Elias Manchester Boddy, whose numerous interests included horticulture and politics. The following year, he commissioned architect James E. Dolena to build a 12,000-square-foot Hollywood Regency-style residence on the property, where Boddy would live with his wife and two sons for over a decade. Upon retiring in 1952, he put his Rancho del Descanso up for sale - it was eventually purchased by the County of Los Angeles and turned into a public space. Today, it is a favorite destination for Angelenos and visitors alike, and features countless areas for exploring, including a bird sanctuary, a five-acre rosarium, a Japanese tea garden, a water-wise garden, an Oak Woodland, a California garden, and the world’s largest collection of camellia flowers.
Descanso Gardens' sprawling twenty-acre Oak Forest masqueraded as Sherwood Forest in the Season 4 episode of TNG titled “Qpid.” Descanso, which means "rest" or "repose" in Spanish, also played the role of the wooded Gamma Quadrant planet in the Deep Space Nine Season 2 episode titled “The Jem’Hadar.” The idyllic site has also popped up in Daredevil, Minority Report, America’s Sweethearts, Legally Blonde and Mad Men . Both the interior and the exterior of the Boddy House, which can be toured while visiting the gardens, were used extensively as Jon Voight's residence in the 2008 holiday comedy Four Christmases .
Descanso Gardens is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day of the year, except for Christmas. Tickets can be purchased onsite.
Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood
![The Jungle set at Warner Bros. | Photo by Lindsay Blake The Jungle set at Warner Bros.](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/Activities/Studio%20Tours/warner-bros-jungle-set-lagoon.jpg)
Though the vast majority of the Star Trek franchise’s backlot filming took place at The Studios at Paramount, a Voyager episode was lensed at another of L.A.’s premier studios, Warner Bros. For Season 7’s “Flesh and Blood,” the cast and crew made the trek out to Burbank to shoot scenes at Warner Bros.’ famous Jungle , which masked as a wooded Hirogen holodeck training simulation. The lush outdoor Jungle set consists of a 10,000-square-foot lagoon surrounded by a plethora of foliage, as well as several rural structures including a cabin, a barn, and a roadhouse. The expansive space, which was originally constructed for the filming of the 1955 movie Santiago, is extremely versatile and has played the role of everything from an apple farm on Pretty Little Liars to a biker bar on The Mentalist . It has also appeared in Hart of Dixie, Million Dollar Baby, True Blood and The Last Samurai .
The Jungle can be viewed as part of the Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood , a two-hour guided visit to the sprawling 110-acre lot in which guests explore countless backlot sets, journey through soundstages, and experience a hands-on view of the inner-workings of Hollywood. The historic studio, which was founded by brothers Jack, Harry, Albert and Sam in 1923, also offers a five-hour Deluxe Tour, which provides a more in-depth look at the celebrated property. Tours are given daily, including weekends, and advance tickets are recommended, especially during the summer months.
Donald C. Tillman Water Reclamation Plant
![Donald C. Tillman Water Reclamation Plant | Photo by Lindsay Blake Donald C. Tillman Water Reclamation Plant](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/Activities/Points%20of%20Interest/donald-c-tillman-water-reclamation-plant.jpg)
A highly unique wastewater treatment facility in Van Nuys known as the Donald C. Tillman Water Reclamation Plant & Japanese Garden regularly masked as Starfleet Academy and Starfleet Command in numerous Star Trek productions, including The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise. The site was originally established in 1984 in order to purify wastewater for re-use. Though a seemingly unlikely tourist attraction, the 90-acre property also boasts a stunning 6.5-acre Japanese garden known as SuihoEn , which welcomes over 1,000 visitors each month. The scenic locale was designed by Doctor Koichi Kawana to demonstrate one of the many possible uses of reclaimed water and features a teahouse, waterfalls, streams, a Zen garden, a Chisen garden, and a tea garden.
The plant’s concrete postmodern administration building , designed by Anthony J. Lumsden, stands as a sharp, but picturesque contrast to the serene grounds. It is this building that was regularly featured as Starfleet Academy and Starfleet Command. Though CGI and matte paintings were typically employed to make the structure appear taller and to add the Golden Gate Bridge into its background, it is still quite recognizable from its countless Star Trek appearances. The Donald C. Tillman Water Reclamation Plant also masked as the home planet of the Edo in the Season 1 episode of The Next Generation titled “Justice.” The property is open Sunday through Thursday and admission is $5 per person. Bonus – the 2013 film Star Trek Into Darkness utilized another of L.A.’s most handsome sites, the Getty Center , to represent Starfleet Headquarters.
Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park
![Vasquez Rocks | Photo by Lindsay Blake Vasquez Rocks from "Star Trek"](https://showyourbadge.discoverlosangeles.com/sites/default/files/styles/generic_teaser/public/media/vasquez-rocks-star-trek.jpg)
One the franchise’s most oft-used locales, the 932-acre Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park masqueraded as everything from the mysterious mind-reading planet on The Original Series to a moon on Voyager to Mintaka III on The Next Generation to planet Vulcan in both Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and the 2009 J.J. Abrams-directed Star Trek . Located in the Sierra Pelona Mountains, the otherworldly site, which consists of 150-foot-tall jagged rock formations that jut from the earth at 50-degree angles, was named for Tiburcio Vasquez, an infamous outlaw who pillaged up and down the coast of California during the 1800s and used the rocks as a regular hideout from authorities. The park is one of L.A. County’s most picturesque spots and has become extremely popular with location scouts, playing host to more than 200 shoots each year.
Arguably, Vasquez Rocks’ most memorable Star Trek appearance was as the barren planet where Captain Kirk (William Shatner) famously battles a Gorn in TOS’ Season 1 episode, "Arena." The 2001 comedy Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back paid homage to that episode by setting a scene at the park, complete with a fake café named “Arena Diner” that was installed onsite for the shoot. Vasquez Rocks is open daily from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. and is easily accessible with plenty of parking. The site offers hiking (ranging from easy to difficult), photo-taking opportunities, and fabulous views. The area’s striking rocks are also visible from Escondido Canyon Road and the Antelope Valley Freeway, and were depicted in a driving scene in the 2006 comedy Little Miss Sunshine .

Filming "Who Watches The Watchers" at Vasquez Rocks
Vasquez Rocks is named after notorious bandit Tiburcio Vásquez , who used the rocky region to elude capture from California law enforcement in 1873 and 1874. On the television series Stories of the Century , Vasquez was portrayed by Anthony Caruso . Since 1928, nearly two hundred other film and television productions have been shot at Vasquez Rocks, including many westerns. The park was acquired by Los Angeles County in 1970.
Classic television shows such as Gunsmoke , Maverick , Bonanza , The Wild Wild West , and Kung Fu have all utilized Vasquez Rocks for filming, as have more contemporary hit shows like Airwolf , Alien Nation , Sliders , Buffy the Vampire Slayer , Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (the rocks were used for the location of the Power Rangers' Command Center, which was in fact the House of the Book at the Brandeis-Bardin Institute used for Camp Khitomer in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country ), Roswell , 24 , and CSI .
Films that have been shot at the region include the 1931 classic Dracula , Blazing Saddles (1974), Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey (1991), Army of Darkness' (1992), Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997), Planet of the Apes , and Alpha Dog (2006).
Star Trek [ ]
The first episode to be partially filmed at Vasquez was " Shore Leave " (in which it depicted the Shore Leave Planet along with, Africa, USA ), spending two and half days on location, on Monday 24 October 1966 , Tuesday 25 October 1966 and Wednesday 26 October 1966 . In the next month, another two Star Trek episodes were shot there, " Arena ", spending two days at Vasquez, on Wednesday 9 November 1966 and Thursday 10 November 1966 , and " The Alternative Factor ". The latter also spent two days filming on location, on Tuesday 22 November 1966 and Wednesday 23 November 1966 . Star Trek returned to Vasquez for the second season , to film " Friday's Child ", which also spent two days on location, on Wednesday 24 May 1967 and Thursday 25 May 1967 .
For " Arena ", the destroyed colony at Cestus III was also filmed near Vasquez, at an outdoor fortress set, originally built by Screen Gems for the series Tales of the 77th Bengal Lancers . Filming there took place on Friday 11 November 1966 .
Vasquez was seen again almost twenty years later in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home , when some of the Vulcan scenes were filmed there. Three years later, in August 1989 , the Star Trek: The Next Generation third season episode " Who Watches The Watchers " was also located at Vasquez. Star Trek: Voyager also filmed scenes at Vasquez, including the barren moon surface for " Initiations " in July 1995 and the desert for " Gravity " in September 1998 . In late- July 2001 , Vasquez portrayed the Xyrillian homeworld in the Star Trek: Enterprise first season episode " Unexpected ".
In late- 2007 , director J.J. Abrams shot the Vulcan scenes of 2009 's Star Trek at Vasquez Rocks as an homage to its use in previous Trek productions. [1]
In January 2012 , Abrams filmed some scenes at Vasquez for Star Trek Into Darkness . [2]
Star Trek: Picard also used Vasquez as a location, filming the exteriors of Raffi Musiker 's home there for " Maps and Legends " and " The End is the Beginning " in early- May 2019 . For the first time, the Vasquez Rocks were portrayed as themselves instead of as a stand-in for a different location.

Where Was Star Trek Filmed?
![star trek vi filming locations of Where Was Star Trek Filmed?](https://thecinemaholic.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Dhruv-T.jpg?w=26&h=26&crop=1)
The 11th feature film in the ‘Star Trek’ universe, the 2009 film is an eponymous iteration of the beloved franchise’s cinematic offerings and follows an alternate timeline that introduces different versions of the franchise’s original characters like Captain Kirk and Spock. The iconic sci-fi saga also delves into Kirk’s childhood as well as the crew’s student days at the Starfleet Academy, making the film’s scale truly grand.
From the rural farmlands of Earth where Kirk grew up to the desolate ice fields of the planet Delta Vega, and everything in between, the film’s roster of different worlds and settings can naturally make you wonder where it was filmed. Let’s take a look at the locations that were used to bring ‘Star Trek’ to life.
Star Trek Filming Locations
Apart from taking place largely in space, ‘Star Trek’ also follows the story of Kirk’s younger days on Earth. Filming for the movie was done in California, Utah, Vermont, and Alaska. The stark natural landscapes found in these states were also used to depict other planets visited by the film’s characters. Unlike many sci-fi and space-centric movies, director J. J. Abrams chose to minimize the use of green and blue screens, preferring to film largely on location instead.
The film’s lengthy production was shrouded in secrecy, with the project given the fake working title ‘Corporate Headquarters.’ Many members of the supporting cast only got to see their lines, as opposed to the entire script, to keep the storyline a secret. Principal photography for the movie commenced on November 11, 2007, and wrapped up on March 27, 2008. Second unit filming was then briefly undertaken in California in April 2008. Let’s take a closer look at the film’s specific filming locations.
Los Angeles County, California
‘Star Trek’ was filmed extensively in and around the city of Los Angeles in Los Angeles County, California. A parking lot near the Dodger Stadium, located at 1000 Vin Scully Avenue, Chavez Ravine in Elysian Park was used to depict a Romulan drilling rig on the planet Vulcan. Scenes of the ice-covered planet Delta Vega were also filmed in the parking lot, using a mixture of real and digital snow. A portion of the filming also took place at California State University Northridge, which can be found at 18111 Nordhoff Street, Northridge.

Exterior shots of the Delmar T. Oviatt Library building and its courtyard were used to depict the Starfleet Academy. The Starfleet Academy assembly hall used the City Hall in Long Beach, located at 333 West Ocean Boulevard, as a stand-in. Scenes showing the highly complex mechanical engine room on the Enterprise starship used the Anheuser-Busch Budweiser Brewery at 15800 Roscoe Boulevard in Van Nuys for filming. Kelvin’s engine room used a power station in Long Beach as a backdrop to achieve its look.

The Vasquez Rocks located at 10700 West Escondido Canyon Road in Agua Dulce have been used in multiple productions of the ‘Star Trek’ franchise and were used to depict the planet Vulcan in the 2009 film. The Vulcan council chamber, as well as other scenes featuring the Vulcan administration, were filmed at Skyrose Chapel at 3888 Workman Mill Road in Whittier in Los Angeles County. The shuttlecraft hangar where the forces congregate is actually the Marine Corps Air Station in Tustin in Orange County, a 40-minute drive from Los Angeles.

The private clubhouse of the Hollywood Post 43 chapter of The American Legion, a veterans organization, was used to depict a dive bar in Iowa. The chapter is located at 2035 North Highland Avenue in the city of Los Angeles. Additional studio filming was undertaken at Paramount Studios, which is located at 5555 Melrose Avenue in Hollywood.
Kern County, California
The second unit filming of the movie, which took place in April 2008, included shooting scenes of Kirk’s childhood. The town of Bakersfield in Kern County, with its wide-open flatlands and farms, made for an effective stand-in for the state of Iowa where Kirk grew up. The Pastoria Energy Facility in Lebec in southwest Kern County was also used for filming scenes of the riverside shipyard.

Barre, Vermont
The Smith Quarry, which belongs to the Rock of Ages Corporation and is located at 772 Graniteville Road in the town of Barre in Vermont, was used to film the scene where a young Kirk narrowly escapes falling down a sheer cliff while driving his father’s car.

Emery County, Utah
The San Rafael Swell, located in the Colorado Plateau in Utah, was also used for filming a few scenes in the film. The peculiar geological structure looks particularly otherworldly and was used to depict the surface of the planet Vulcan.
The stark landscapes of Alaska have been used for other ‘Star Trek’ iterations and were used in this production as well, most likely to further depict the icy world of Delta Vega. A glacier near Anchorage in Alaska served as a filming site for ‘Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.’

JJ Abrams pulled off the unlikely feat of pleasing critics, audiences and diehard Trekkies rebooting the Star Trek franchise.
The surface of ‘Vulcan’ – as it was for Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home – is the 745-acre Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park , 10700 West Escondido Canyon Road , near Agua Dulce Springs , about an hour north of Los Angeles .
This is a sly nod to the original TV series which, although largely studio-based, several 1960s episodes – including Shore Leave and Arena – ventured out to find alien landscapes among the awesome rock formations. Named after the 19th century outlaw Tiburcio Vasquez , who hid out here, this outburst of the San Andreas Fault has been used in hundreds of Westerns and sci-fi movies, pop videos and photoshoots – see it in Apache , Alpha Dog , Starship Troopers and as far back as 1935 in Werewolf Of London .
The park is in the high desert north of Los Angeles , between Newhall and Acton, off Route 14.
![star trek vi filming locations Star Trek (2009) location: Oviatt Library, Cal-Tech University, Northridge](https://www.movie-locations.com/Star-Trek-2009-Oviatt-Library.jpg)
For the 'Starfleet Academy', digital technology moves the Oviatt Library at Cal-State University, Northridge in Los Angeles ' San Fernando Valley , to sit alongside San Francisco ’s Golden Gate Bridge .
The library had previously featured (as the superhero school) in Sky High and, more down to earth, in Legally Blonde 2 and Lindsay Lohan - Jane Fonda misfire Georgia Rule . On the small screen, sci-fi buffs might have seen it in Star Trek Voyager , Roswell and Battlestar Galactica .
![star trek vi filming locations Star Trek (2009) location: Long Beach City Hall, California](https://www.movie-locations.com/StarTrek_LongBeach.jpg)
It’s in the circular council chamber of Long Beach City Hall , 333 West Ocean Boulevard , alongside Lincoln Park, that Kirk and Spock initially face off when Kirk is accused of cheating in the Kobayashi Maru (the supposedly unwinnable Starfleet training exercise), but are finally decorated after defeating he Romulan attack, and Kirk is appointed captain of the Enterprise ( Los Angeles Metro, Blue Line ).
More mundanely, 'Delta Vega', the ice planet was recreated in the parking lot of the Dodger Stadium , 1000 Vin Scully Avenue , downtown Los Angeles , home of the Los Angeles Dodgers (the car park is where Brian O'Conner ( Paul Walker ) is giving his car a workout at the opening of The Fast and The Furious ).
The USS Enterprise 's gleaming engine room, where the young Scotty ( Simon Pegg ) gets beamed into a cooling pipe, is the Budweiser Brewery Anheuser-Busch Inc, 15800 Roscoe Boulevard , just west of the San Diego Freeway (I-405) in Van Nuys in the San Fernando Valley, while the recently restored 1930s Long Beach Generating Station on Terminal Island became the engine room of the USS Kelvin , aboard which Kirk is born (you can see the plant pre-restoration in Michael Bay ’s The Island , with Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson ) and Next with Nicolas Cage .

History of Krasnoyarsk Krai
The first state in the territory of southern Siberia appeared in the 4th-3rd centuries BC. Ancient Chinese chronicles called it Dinlin. Around 201 BC, Dinlin state was defeated by the Hunnu (the ancestors of the Huns) - an ancient Turkic nomadic people who inhabited the steppes to the north of China from 220 BC until the 2nd century AD. To protect the country against their raids Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall of China.
After the defeat of Dinlin, the Turkic tribe of the Kyrgyz settled in Khakass-Minusinsk depression. In 840, Kyrgyz state destroyed Uighur Khanate and extended its power in Tuva and Mongolia. At the beginning of the 13th century, the Kyrgyz were conquered by the Mongols.
Since that time, the Kyrgyz ceased to play an independent role in the Asian international politics. But in the Minusinsk Hollow, the surrounding area of Krasnoyarsk and other northern territories, the Kyrgyz were the most powerful force and resisted the Russian Cossacks who were engaged in the conquest of Siberia. In the end they could not prevent the incorporation of these territories into Russia.
More historical facts…
Until 1629, the territory of present Krasnoyarsk krai was part of a vast region with its center in the town of Tobolsk. In the 1760s-1780s, Siberia began to be used as the main place of exile. In 1822, Yenisei gubernia (province) was established after the separation of Siberia into Western and Eastern. In 1863, 44,994 exiles lived in the Yenisei province representing 1/7 of the total population of the province. According to the 1897 census, 570,200 people lived in the province.
On December 7, 1934, Krasnoyarsk Krai was formed. The borders of the region were almost the same as of Yenisei gubernia of the Russian Empire. In 1991, Khakassia Autonomous Oblast being originally part of the region became a separate subject of Russia - the Republic of Khakassia.
On January 1, 2007, Krasnoyarsk Krai, Taimyr (Dolgano-Nenetsky) Autonomous Okrug and Evenky Autonomous Okrug were united in a single region called Krasnoyarsk Krai, the autonomous okrugs became Taimyr (Dolgano-Nenetsky) and Evenky districts.
