History channel has an awesome show, the Science of StarTrek and just about EVERYTHING is rooted in real science. We already have working prototypes (abet on TINY scales) of transporters and shields. Energy beam weapons, aka Phasers, are almost in working models for warfare and warp theory has been mathematically proven sound.
They also have a version of this show for StarWars.
