	Charles Napier, who plays Adam, would later play General Denning in "Little Green Men" on "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine".
	Ben Stiller, a noted "Star Trek" fan, claimed that the "space hippies" were his favourite aliens.
	When they find the dead hippie after they land, the actor is still moving his right hand repeatedly.
	When Kirk and company arrive on the planet Eden to investigate, in one scene the film is reversed and Kirk's insignia is on the wrong side of his uniform.
	The footage of the crew falling unconscious was previously used in "Spock's Brain". (Apparently, the crew in both instances couldn't bear the episode anymore.)
