The television program within the film, Galaxy Quest, is set around the starship NSEA Protector, an instrument of the National Space Exploration Administration, which are obviously parodies of the USS Enterprise and Starfleet respectively.

Space Quest is a series of six comedic science fiction computer adventure games released between 1986 and 1995.

Scott and Mark created a short demo, which ended up becoming the first four rooms of Space Quest I, at which point Ken gave the project a green-light.

Space Quest III was written in Sierra's Creative Interpreter ( SCI ), which had 3-D capabilities.

Space Quest IV marked an evolution in terms of graphics by increasing the number of colors from 16 to 256 colors.

Roger Wilco is a fictional character and the protagonist of the Space Quest series, introduced in Space Quest: The Sarien Encounter in 1986.

The first two Space Quest games allowed the player to choose the character's name, which defaulted to Roger Wilco if left blank.

Graduating in Space Quest V, he is promoted from a janitor to captain of the garbage scow SCS Eureka.

In Space Quest 6 his spot in the limelight ends as he is busted back down to janitor and assigned to the backwoods of the cosmos.

It is revealed in the time travel tomfoolery that is Space Quest IV that Roger would eventually marry Beatrice and that they would have a son ( Roger Wilco Jr .) As Wilco now owes his life to his son, this must happen.

Beatrice is absent from Space Quest 6, but she is mentioned in the game's closing credits and by Roger himself.

We also learn that by Space Quest XII, when Roger Jr. is a young adult, Roger will be " unavailable " for some reason.

) While this retcon is never addressed in the game itself it spawned a full-fledged fangame, Space Quest: The Lost Chapter.

The original Space Quest game was released in October 1986 and quickly became a hit, selling in excess of 100, 000 copies ( sales are believed to be around 200, 000 to date, not including the many compilations it has been included in ).

It was remade and re-released in 1991 as " Space Quest I: Roger Wilco in the Sarien Encounter ".

Released in 1991 ; in this installment, Roger embarks on a wacky time-travel adventure through Space Quest games both past and future.

A reborn Sludge Vohaul from Space Quest XII chases Roger through time in an attempt to finally kill him.

Roger also visits Space Quest X: Latex Babes of Estros ( whose title is a parody of Infocom's game Leather Goddesses of Phobos ) and Space Quest I ; in the latter, the graphics and music revert to the style of the original game and Roger is threatened by a group of monochromatic bikers who consider Roger's 256 colors pretentious ( or comment on other graphics modes if played in EGA or Monochrome ).

The United States Naval Research Laboratory ( NRL ) and the United States Department of Defense Space Test Program ( STP ) conducted the Charged Aerosol Release Experiment ( CARE ) on September 19, 2009, using exhaust particles from a Black Brant XII suborbital sounding rocket launched from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility to create an artificial noctilucent cloud.
