The United States Postal Service is kicking off 2016 in style by releasing a new set of Star Trek forever stamps.
In time for the 50th anniversary, these stamps are designed by The Heads of State and pay homage to the most recognizable aspects of Star Trek: The Original Series. This isn't the first time Star Trek has been immortalized by the USPS however. Back in 1999 (when stamps were 33 cents), the USPS was running a promotion called "Celebrate the Century" in which Star Trek was a part of.
The four stamps include:
The U.S.S. Enterprise inside the outline of a Starfleet insignia against a gold background, the silhouette of a crewman in a transporter against a red background,the silhouette of the Enterprise from above against a green background, and the Enterprise inside the outline of the Vulcan salute against a blue background. On the panel beneath the stamps, you'll find "Space…the final frontier," printed underneath.
Details on when these stamps will be available are currently unknown, but we'll let you know as soon as we know.
