In the episode "Tomorrow Is Yesterday" from the first season of Star Trek, the Enterprise travels back in time to the late 1960's. Captain Kirk and crew hear a radio report stating that the first manned moon shot will happen on that Wednesday. Apollo 11 launched on Wednesday, July 16th, 1969 at 9:32 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
Did I mention the episode first aired on January 26th, 1967? That's 18 months before Apollo 11 landed on the Moon.
Star Trek RULES!!
