In the ''[[Star Trek]]'' [[fictional universe]], '''Project Genesis''' is a process of rapidly [[terraforming]] worlds to make them capable of supporting life. The idea of Project Genesis is introduced in ''[[Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan]]'' (1982), and the "Genesis Planet" created by a "Genesis Device" appears in ''The Wrath of Khan'' and ''[[Star Trek III: The Search for Spock]]'' (1984).

Project Genesis uses a [[proto-matter]] energy matrix to rearrange matter at the subatomic level into life-giving matter of equal mass. The Genesis Project is headed by Dr. Carol Marcus ([[Bibi Besch]]). [[Khan Noonien Singh]] ([[Ricardo Montalbán]]) steals and activates the Genesis material, leading to the creation of the Genesis Planet. [[Spock]]'s ([[Leonard Nimoy]]) [[casket]] lands on the planet's surface, resurrecting him. Dr. David Marcus ([[Merritt Butrick]]) hypothesizes that the use of proto-matter in the Genesis matrix makes the planet to be unstable; it destroys itself at the end of ''Star Trek III''. In [[Pocket Books]]' ''Genesis Wave'' series, aliens trick Marcus into creating a Genesis matrix that sends a Genesis wave across the galaxy, killing billions and destroying many planets.
