Anecdotes:

The voice of actress Majel Barrett (who plays Dr. Christine Chapel and was Gene Roddenberry's wife) was used for Star Fleet computers such as that of the Enterprise throughout the "Star Trek" franchise, from the original "Star Trek" (1966) series through to the Star Trek (2009) reimagining. Her voice in this picture is already very recognizable although she doesn't have a lot of lines.

Goofs:

Factual errors: When flying past Jupiter, several of its moons and the planet itself are lit on different sides. Since the only source of light would be from the Sun, they would all be lit on the same side.

A muddled epic

Star Trek: The Motion Picture - Stardate: 7412.6

Of all the Star Trek films, this is the most impersonal and epic - which necessarily isn't a bad thing. This film really isn't about the Star Trek crew, but about the vast visual effects laden V'Ger and how the Enterprise spends 2+ hours exploring it. The score by Jerry Goldsmith only accentuates this epic-ness - this is one of his best scores and brings a majestic quality to the Star Trek crew. Never really is this film funny (unlike 4) or action-packed (unlike II) but regardless will always have a place in my heart because it tries to be as epic as Star Trek can possibly be. Overall, a 7 out of 10 (mostly because of the state-of-the-art effects of its time in 1979 and a superb score by Jerry Goldsmith RIP).
