No less than three of Earth's religions were just caused by visiting aliens who all had nothing to do with each other. Quetzalcoatl was an alien zoologist, a bunch of travelling energy beings inspired the Greeks (who in turn inspired those jerks who hung out with Plato before going on to be psychic ubermenschen), and the devils of the Abrahamic faiths were friendly wizards from the center of the galaxy where for-real magic works (with various biblical patriarchs all being the same randomly immortal guy)

Gene Roddenberry made multiple movie pitches to the studio to the effect of "The Enterprise goes back in time and meets John F Kennedy." Yes, these involved Spock being on the Grassy Knoll in order to preserve the timeline.

There is an actual in-universe scientific principle, Hodgkin's Law of Parallel Planetary Development, that states that physically similar planets will not only produce similar lifeforms (hence all the aliens that are indistinguishable from human actors), but will go through similar sociological histories. This explains the planets that independently perfectly recreate the Roman Empire and the Declaration of Independence word-for-word. Note this doesn't apply to the times someone fucks up the Prime Directive and creates a planet of Gangsters or Nazis, or the time aliens read people's minds and psychically create a planet of Cowboys, or the times actual earth organisms are transplanted onto another world by precursor aliens creating a planet of Dinosaurs or Navajo. The Navajo and other Native American peoples, incidentally, were genetically engineered by different aliens. But that was Voyager so it barely counts.

Rick Sternbach worked in a bunch of anime references all over the place; there's Dirty Pair references in a bunch of the filler text shown on computer displays, and Nanmo the robot even got used as a model for not one but two props on the show (The Egg, from Evolution, and the Exocomps):   tl;dr anime is real in star trek

It's been a long time since I read Wil Wheaton's account of it, but my recollection is that Wil got a phone call from Gene immediately after receiving the apology note, asking very specifically if he had received the note yet (and then going on to say "Bill's just an rear end")

William Shatner is an rear end but he has been to space and will probably live forever.

All the major humanoid races in the Alpha Quadrant (and, by implication, all DNA-based life) are the product of an ancient precursor race that engaged in acts of panspermia to seed their empty corner of the universe with life that would eventually evolve into intelligent beings like themselves. They even encoded a holographic message into key genetic sequences scattered across the quadrant, a final message to their various child-species, a message of shared legacy and universal brotherhood. A Klingon saw this message and immediately went "pffff, what's this hippy bullshit? Where's the doomsday device plans? gently caress this we're going home" while the Cardassians scoffed at the notion of being related to all these vermin they share a galaxy with.

I looked up the Shatner/Wheaton story, and there's another anecdote I forgot that's funny:The William loving Shatner story posted:I walked into the stage, and took my seat on the bridge of the Enterprise D, next to Brent Spiner. Imagining Data saying "I heard about Shatner. You know he wears a toupee, right? He's balder than old baldy up there." is funny to visualize.

The phasers Starfleet uses has a setting somewhere between "kill" and "vaporize" that makes a human head turn into a gory skull and then explode like a Gallagher watermelon.

That there is not a single photo available of William Shatner without his toupee will always be the greatest failure of the paparazzi profession.
