The USS Enterprise was launched in the 80's by NASA - but there wasn't any
crew. The name was because enough (read more than 100 000 people) suggested
that as the name for it.
In ST: First Contact they said that the Vulcans met humans (that just had
managed to go in Warp 1) sometime in the 1990's IIRC.
"Space 1999" should also be here now, but there isn't a (permanent) base on
the moon yet. I guess they'll build one before going to Mars (that trip is
planned somewhere in 2020 - 2030)
