In recent months,Watch Private Video Magazine 7 Apple has quietly touted the powers of Siri as the perfect digital assistant to help you navigate iOS. However, a tweet on Tuesday, from an official Star Trek-related account, indicates that Siri might soon also get a dose of well-known science fiction.

Specifically, the voice of the computer on Star Trek's iconic fictional spacecraft, the Enterprise.

The hint that such an update might be on its way came in a coyly worded tweet from the @Roddenberry account, the Twitter account of the entertainment company of the late Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry.

"Majel's voice is recorded phonetically and we're working to get her voice for things such as Siri, maybe voice of the computer on #STDiscovery."

The name Majel refers to the late Majel Barrett-Roddenberry, the wife of Gene who served as the voice of the ship's computer on the original Star Trekas well as on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Voyagerand Deep Space Nine. An actress and producer, Majel's voice has become well known among science fiction fans as well as tech and science industry professionals who looked to the show for childhood inspiration.

Currently run by his son, Eugene “Rod” Roddenberry, the Roddenberry Entertainment company works to maintain the Star Trek-related aspects of Gene's legacy, and develops other, unrelated entertainment projects.

The reference to "STDiscovery" in the tweet refers to the new Star Trek series, called Star Trek: Discovery, currently in development at CBS.

Sure, this tweet is no confirmation that Apple will unveil a Star Trek computer voice in Siri. But given that the much celebrated 50 year anniversary of the show lands on Sept. 8, one day after Apple's iPhone 7 event, the timing couldn't be better.

Putting that incredibly recognizable Star Trek voice in Siri, on the anniversary of the show, would make the iPhone 7's debut a truly historic event.

Keep your Vulcan ears open and your iOS-worn fingers crossed, Siri may be about to go where no digital assistant has gone before.
