Cool >Your Tax $'s builds a Star Trek's Starship Command Center for NSA <

Report reveals NSA director Keith Alexander replicated a war room after Star Trek's Starship Enterprise...Your Tax dollars at work What ? Yes, 4-Sure.... No price has been given for this project.
It's Top Secret & they wouldn't even tell `Space


Leaked documents suggest the NSA could have a replica facility of the iconic Bridge of the Starship Enterprise from Star Trek.
A Foreign Policy investigation into NSA director Keith Alexander has exposed his former Fort Belvoir facility, which had a war room designed to mimic the Bridge of the Starship Enterprise from Star Trek.
During a tour of the facility, Alexander allegedly showed his colleagues the Information Dominance Centre, custom built by a Hollywood set designer to replicate the iconic sci-fi setting. The area reportedly came complete with “chrome panels, computer stations, a huge TV monitor on the forward wall”, and even doors that made a "whoosh" sound when they open and closed.

Being a ST fan since childhood I can't say the money was a toal waste.
