  *Exteriors: The battle scenes, planets and ships from other cultures (notably the Romulan “Bird of Prey” and Klingon “Battle Cruisers”) are updated.
  *Background scenes: Some of the iconic, yet flat, matte paintings used as backdrops for the strange, new worlds have a CGI face-lift, adding atmosphere and lighting.
  + *The refurbished episodes also feature higher quality sound for the famous opening theme. The original score by composer Alexander Courage, has been re-recorded in state-of-the-art digital stereo audio with an orchestra and a female singer belting out the famous vocals. A digitally re-mastered version of William Shatner's classic original recording of the 38-word "Space, the final frontier..." monologue continues to open each episode.
  --"The Cage" (Prod # 001) "rejected" pilot episode did not air during the original run of the series and is not included in this set.
