Galaxy Quest is a 1999 American science fiction action comedy film directed by Dean Parisot and written by David Howard and Robert Gordon. A parody of science-fiction films and series Star Trek and its fandom, the film stars Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shalhoub, Sam Rockwell and Daryl Mitchell, it depicts the cast of a fictional defunct cult television series, Galaxy Quest, who are visited by actual aliens who think the series is an accurate documentary, become involved in a real intergalactic conflict. The film was a modest box office success and positively received by critics: it won the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation and the Nebula Award for Best Script, it was nominated for 10 Saturn Awards, including Best Science Fiction Film and Best Director for Parisot, Best Actress for Weaver, Best Supporting Actor for Rickman, with Allen winning Best Actor. Galaxy Quest achieved cult status from Star Trek fans for its affectionate parody, but from more mainstream audiences as a comedy film in its own right.

Several Star Trek cast and crew members praised the film. It was included in Reader's Digest's list of The Top 100+ Funniest Movies of All Time in 2012, Star Trek fans voted it the seventh best Star Trek film of all time in 2013; the cast members of the canceled 1980s space-adventure television series Galaxy Quest spend most of their days attending fan conventions and promotional appearances. Though the series' former lead star Jason Nesmith thrives on the attention, the other cast members resent him and, to varying degrees, the states of their careers. At a convention, Jason is approached by a group calling themselves Thermians, led by Mathesar, who request his help. Believing it to be for a promotional appearance, he agrees to be picked up the next morning. Jason is hung over when he is picked up and does not grasp that he has been transported to a working re-creation of the bridge of the NSEA Protector, the starship from Galaxy Quest. Believing he has been called on to perform, he gives half-hearted orders as captain, directing them to attack his enemy General Sarris, temporarily defeating him.

When the Thermians transport him back to Earth, he realizes. He is rebuffed; when the Thermian Laliari appears and requests Jason's help again, he convinces the cast to join him. Once aboard the Protector, the group learns that the Thermians received transmissions of Galaxy Quest in space and, having no understanding of fiction, mistook them for historical documentaries. Inspired by the crew's adventures, they restructured their society to reflect the show's virtues, manufactured a functioning replica of the Protector; when the evil warlord Sarris attacks the ship, the group flees through a field of magnetic mines. Though they escape Sarris, the ship's power source, its beryllium sphere, is damaged, they detect beryllium on a nearby planet, the humans travel to the surface to retrieve a new sphere. After a series of mishaps, they are successful. Jason confesses to Sarris; when he shows Sarris the "historical documents" of Galaxy Quest. Sarris orders the Protector's self-destruct mechanism to be activated and returns to his ship, leaving the others to die.

The humans defeat Sarris' men left on the ship. With the aid of a Galaxy Quest fan on Earth named Brandon – using a genuine Thermian communicator Jason had accidentally swapped for Brandon's prop – and his network of friends with intimate knowledge of the show and Gwen make their way to the ship's core and shut down the self-destruct sequence, while Alexander leads the Thermians in fighting back against Sarris' forces; the humans fly to confront Sarris. With their renewed confidence in their abilities, the crew flies through the minefield again but evade the mines, causing them to drag behind the ship, they fly the Protector straight at Sarris' ship, veer away at the last moment, trick Sarris into flying into the mines and obliterating his ship. The Protector travels to Earth to return the humans home, but Sarris, who escaped his vessel's destruction, ambushes them and fatally wounds several crew members. Jason activates the "Omega 13", a secret superweapon on the Protector that had never been used and never had its capabilities explained.

It causes a 13-second time warp to the past, giving Jason and Mathesar the chance to disarm Sarris before he attacks. The Protector's bridge splits from the main vessel to fly to Earth with the humans, while the main section departs with Mathesar leading the Thermians. With Brandon acting as a beacon, the Protector bridge lands at the Galaxy Quest convention, crashing through walls and coming to a rest in the center of the main stage, where the crowd assumes it was a massive display of special effects; as the humans emerge, Sarris revives to threaten them, but Jason shoots him, blasting him into atoms, the cast basks in the adoration of Brandon, his pals, their fans. Some time Galaxy Quest is revived as a sequel series, Galaxy Quest: The Journey Continues, with the crew reprising their roles. Tim Allen as Jason Nesmith, who played Commander Peter Quincy Taggart, the commander of the NSEA Protector and main character of the series. Sigourney Weaver as Gwen DeMarco, who played Lieutenant Tawny Madison, the ship's communications officer and the only officer aboard who can give orders to the ship's computer.

Alan Rickman as Alexander Dane, who played Dr. Lazarus, the ship's science offi

The Ford Interceptor was a concept car which debuted at the 2007 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan. The Interceptor was a retro-styled sedan that reflected a modern interpretation of the classic sporty American muscle cars from the 1960s, like the Ford Galaxie. Ford introduced the Interceptor Concept in a company press release dated 31 December 2006. Ford described the Interceptor design styling as being influenced, "...much like a Marine in dress uniform. He looks smart and elegant but you can see the raw power that lies beneath." Ford has no production plans for such a full-sized, rear-wheel drive sedan. Some of the Interceptor's design cues appeared in the sixth-generation Ford Taurus; the Interceptor Concept used a Ford Racing 5.0-liter Cammer engine which produced 600 hp, with the capability of running on E-85 ethanol. It included a manual six-speed transmwassion; the 5.0-liter Cammer engine was an upgraded variant of the 4.6-liter modular engine that powered the Mustang GT until 2011.

The car included a powered clamshell "shaker" hood. The fullsize sedan was based on a stretched version of the rear wheel drive Mustang's Ford D2C platform, featuring a solid rear axle; the body was proportioned with short front overhang and a long rear overhang, featured a low roofline and a high beltline, when compared to other Ford sedans like the Ford Taurus, with a wedged profile. The Interceptor Concept continued with the current Ford horizontal three-bar grille design introduced on the Ford Fusion and Ford Edge; the hood was high up, flat with a rawased rear-middle section. The squircle-shaped rear headlights on the Interceptor influenced those on the Ford Taurus; the Interceptor incorporated a four-point "belt and suspenders" harness seat belt design in the front and rear seats, with inflatable safety belts for rear seat passengers. The four-point belt represented a possible next-generation safety belt system, designed to be more comfortable and easier to use than traditional three-point belts.

The dash, steering wheel, four low-back bucket seats are wrapped in leather. There were retractable headrests that deployed from the roof, adjusting fore and aft as well as up and down for each occupant; the audio control panel and climate controls were stowable, there was a gated six-speed shifter in the center dash.
