#TwitterIPO ringing the Opening Bell! #NYSE https://t.co/MWS6rhanOm

Twitter goes public today on the New York Stock Exchange, and actor Patrick Stewart showed up to ring the opening bell, along with 9-year-old lemonade stand owner Vivienne Harr and a rep from the Boston P.D. Some people were just perplexed by the actor boldly going where no man has gone before. Or something.
Why is Patrick Stewart at the NYSE? Someone please explain. Thanks.
