*In addition to the setting, part of the original concept for the show was that there would be a lot of advanced technology similar to that seen in ''Star Trek'', but it would be constantly malfunctioning. The automatic doors at [[Applied Cryogenics]] resemble those in TOS; however, they malfunction when [[Fry]] remarks on this similarity.
*The introduction is reminiscent of ''Star Trek'' intros in TOS and TNG. "Space: The Final Frontier..." becomes "Space: It seems to go on and on forever..." It also has similar music and voice-over.
*[[Leonard Nimoy]] says that he no longer does the [[startrek:Vulcan salute|Vulcan salute]], "Live Long and Prosper". '''''(Image)'''''
**It is presumed in this episode it is simply because he has no hands, but the truth behind this statement is seen in the future episode, "Where No Fan Has Gone Before".
*The rows of jars containing heads, with the one jar containing Nimoy's head in front to greet people, is reminiscent of the episode [[startrek:Return to Tomorrow (episode)|"Return To Tomorrow" (TOS)]], where the alien minds were preserved in glowing spheres, with [[startrek:Sargon|Sargon]] in the one sphere in front.
'''{{elink|1ACV02|The Series Has Landed}}'''
*We see that {{w|Cap'n Crunch}} is promoted to Admiral. In ''Star Trek'' (most noticably TNG) whenever we take a look into the "future", the Captains are always Admirals. '''''(Image)'''''
'''{{elink|1ACV03|I, Roommate}}'''
*A [[Huge Assed Woman|lady from the apartment]] next to Fry and [[Bender]] claims that Bender's thoughts are being transmitted to her cell phone. When she closes the phone, it beeps like the [[startrek:Communicator|Communicator]] from ''Star Trek''.
'''{{elink|1ACV04|Love's Labours Lost in Space}}'''
*TOS uniforms were made of velour.
*The [[Democratic Order of Planets]] (D.O.O.P.) has a [[DOOP Army|military force]] composed of men in red uniforms, who are often utilized as cannon fodder.
*[[M5438]] is based off various [[startrek:Non-corporeal species|Non-corporeal species]] in ''Star Trek''. '''''(Image)'''''
*Zapp confuses [[startrek:Poker|Poker]] with [[startrek:Chess|Chess]] (a Kirk analogy).
*Zapp Brannigan's character was inspired by Captain Kirk from ''Star Trek''. To create the character, the writers imagined what it would be like if [[William Shatner]] himself, not James T. Kirk, were the captain of the [[startrek:USS Enterprise (NCC-1701)|Enterprise]]. '''''(Image)'''''
**In the DVD [[Commentary:Love's Labours Lost in Space|commentary]] to this episode, Zapp was described as being "40% Kirk, 60% Shatner."
*The idea for Zapp's first officer, [[Kif Kroker]], was based on the idea of Spock hating his captain, yet being dependant on him and doing his every whim.
*There is the use of a [[startrek:Captain's log|Captain's log]], complete with star date.
*[[Brannigan's Law]] is the equivalent to [[startrek:Starfleet|Starfleet's]] [[startrek:Prime Directive|Prime Directive]].
*At the [[The Hip Joint]], Fry meets a [[21st Century girl|woman from the 21st century]] who asks if he remembers "when those cyborgs enslaved Humanity?" This is a reference to [[startrek:Star Trek: First Contact|''Star Trek: First Contact'' (Film)]], when the [[startrek:Borg|Borg]] attempt to assimilate Earth.
'''{{elink|1ACV07|My Three Suns}}'''
*[[Trisolians]] live in a liquid state and refer to humanoids as [[startrek:Solids|"Solids"]]. This is quite similar to [[startrek:Changeling|Changelings]] from DS9.
'''{{elink|1ACV08|A Big Piece of Garbage}}'''
*Fry finds a "Mr Spock Collector's Plate" with a picture of Spock on it.
'''{{elink|1ACV09|Hell Is Other Robots}}'''
*Bender screaming at the universe is like a scene from [[startrek:Star Trek Generations|''Star Trek Generations'' (Film)]].
'''{{elink|1ACV10|A Flight to Remember}}'''
*[[Leela]]'s bathing suit looks very like the one worn by [[startrek:Jadzia Dax|Jadzia Dax]] in the [[startrek:Let He Who Is Without Sin... (episode)|Let He Who Is Without Sin... (DS9)]] '''''(Image)'''''
'''{{elink|1ACV12|When Aliens Attack}}'''
*The [[startrek:Klaxon|Klaxon]] alarm sounds when [[Zoidberg]] escapes from the lobster trap.
*A door opens with the hatch noise used in ''Star Trek''.
*The mother ship is similar to old ''Star Trek'' ship models.
*Fry includes Captain [[startrek:Kathryn Janeway|Janeway]] and Uhura in a list of science fiction heroes.
*[[Omicron Persei 8]] appears to be influenced heavily by [[startrek:Qo'noS|Qo'noS]], home planet of the [[startrek:Klingon|Klingons]] on ''Star Trek''.
'''{{elink|1ACV13|Fry and the Slurm Factory}}'''
*A variant of [[startrek:Three-dimensional chess|Three-dimensional chess]], Three-dimensional Scrabble, is played by Lela and [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth]]. '''''(Image)'''''

Technology is the application of developments in science and engineering to benefit humanity. In the 31st century, robots, who are more advanced than in the 21st century, are used for entertainment purposes, work, cooking and cleaning, and companionship. In a thousand years, technology has progressed a lot. As a result, the world of Futurama is populated with an amazingly vast array of new gadgets, gizmos, and techniques. Some of them even work — some of the time.
