T MINUS 3: Julia Trumbull Reflects On Husband Doug's VFX Career
Late last year, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights announced their next flight. Dubbed the Enterprise mission, it will see the remains of several Star Trek luminaries journeying into the final frontier on the Vulcan Centaur rocket. Since the announcement, I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing friends and family members of the late, great cast and crew who will be blasting off next month. Throughout the months of April and May, I’ll be releasing those interviews. Douglas Trumbull is a special effects legend, getting his start on Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey and moving on to films like The Andromeda Strain, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Trumbull is going to space on the Enterprise mission and his widow, Julia, joined me to talk about his legacy. The Enterprise mission is looking to blast off in June or July, and you’ll be able to stream it live. For the latest on the flight’s schedule, head over to their website.
