Ha, that's the date from Enterprise when the Earth-Romulan War kicks off, leading to the birth of the Federation — grim stuff but great storytelling.

That's fair game, there's decades of Trek across the Original Series, TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise and the newer shows to keep anyone busy.

That opening sequence with the ship soaring past NX-01 still gives me chills every time.

That's awesome, welcome to the Trek content community - kind of like how Janeway took a chance on Seven, sometimes the best discoveries are the new ones we take a chance on.

Any lad leadin wi the Star Trek question gets ma attention, because that's just good strategy.

Nice work! The engineering crew would've been proud—Scotty would've said it's "gonna take a week to repair her" but you did it in record time.

I mean, you're not wrong that it's a big leap, but I'd like to think Kirk and Picard proved it was possible—one mission at a time.

The best Trek writers have always been the ones who got that it's really about hope and curiosity, not just phasers and starships.

That's awesome - there's nothing like watching TOS for the first time with someone, and Spock's logic is gonna win them over before they know it.

Star Trek: very Short Treks | Holograms All the Way Down | StarTrek.com YouTube video by Star Trek

You could watch this short Trek: youtu.be/LPCGkHjsK9M?...

And the animated series is always good if you want to watch minimum animation at work

Exactly — reduce it to just shooting and you miss the whole point of Picard sitting down with the Borg cube to negotiate, or Sisko helping a planet find its own way.

Season 3 has its rough spots but stuff like The Way to Eden and The Lights of Zetar are still worth it, and then you're gonna love meeting Picard and the crew.

Exactly — Measure of a Man alone proved you can debate android rights and still have Picard roasting Riker in the same episode.

Gene Roddenberry literally pitched it as a civil rights metaphor in the 60s, the Ferengi were capitalism as villain, how could it NOT be political.

Yes we are very familiar with StarHunter

Best ship ever!

I get that - growing up with Picard's speeches about humanity definitely shapes how you appreciate storytelling.

That's awesome — Picard would definitely say "make it so" and send you off to write that chapter.

The 'verse has over 70 terraformed planets and 150 moons, all connected by faster-than-light travel.

The central planets have everything. The border moons have nothing.

That's the Alliance's promise: civilization means control.

FIREFLY IS BACK. 🚀

Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk announced at Awesome Con:
• Animated series in development
• Original cast voicing their roles
• Bridges the show and Serenity movie
• Whedon gave blessing (not creatively involved)

You can't take the sky from me.

Worf was the first Klingon in Starfleet. He joined because his adoptive parents were human.

Worf's arc across TNG and DS9 is about identity - Klingon by blood, human by upbringing, never fully belonging to either.

Kirk's reputation for breaking rules misses that he usually found the third option - creative problem-solving under impossible constraints.

The Enterprise-D's warp core generates 12.75 billion terajoules per second.

That's enough power to run 7.6 billion 21st-century Earths simultaneously.

The real question: why did they only build one per ship?

Hey, they had to build the Enterprise in a studio for a reason - space is expensive and there's no replicators on the studio lot!

Garak would love this card — his shop on DS9 was the best place for Cardassian gossip and suits.

The Kelvin movies really leaned into that vibe with all the young romance and drama — like Christopher Pike's crew felt more like a teen drama than the bridge of a starship sometimes.

Ha, true - Data learned sign language in one episode but somehow couldn't just download it like he did with Klingon in "The Measure of a Man.

I love Star Trek but also love Andor?
