According to my calculations, it's Kes's birthday today.



Happy Birthday to Our Favorite Ocampa!

May Kes' birthday be as Beautiful and Magical as she, herself, is.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

"Happy Belated" Kes.

And here's a little something for Lynx, your Number 1 fan.

Beautiful!

Both the video and the "Winged Kes" picture!

 

[Terok Nor]

Kes would be dead by now wouldn't she? Her species only lived for 9 years.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

^^ Well since this is her past and she's technically not going to be born for 3+ centuries... no, she would not be dead, yet.

 

[hux]

So if it is her birthday then that means... we've all been dead for centuries.



I wonder if I married a model and invented colour changing mood-pants like I'd always dreamed.

As The Clown said to The Doctor: "Well, you certainly know how to bring a party to a halt."

As JanewayRulz wrote:

Not to mention that her lifespan was prolonged in the episode....hm, sorry, story "Coming Home" which is to be found on the Kes Website!

According to my calculations, it's Kes's birthday today.



Happy Birthday to Our Favorite Ocampa!

It's probably pretty obvious, but how did you work through the "number crunching"?

Regardless, thank you for providing the thoughtful service!!!

 

[Lynx]

It was just an idea I got.

A previous thread discussing the whole subject can be found here:

As I wrote in the thread:

So after some thinking, I decided to come up with a suggestion for all the characters birthdays so that you all know when it's time to bake a cake, light some candles, hang up a picture of the birthday crew member, raise a toast and sing "Happy Birthday To You" in your most sweet and respectful voice.

With the help of Memory Alpha, Memory Beta, some Voyager books, my own Voyager Timeline (which can be found at the Kes Website) a Stardate Calculator and my own imagination, I have made this suggestion for official Voyager birthday celebrations.

I actually did change some of the suggestions for the crewmembers birthdays after suggestions from other posters. Suggestions that I found more relevant than my own ideas. Kes's birthday is one such example. It was actually moved from 17 December to 12 December due to a comment about it from Hando.

Kim's birthday was also debated a lot and is another example in which I followed suggestions from other posters.

Anyway, the final birthday list is here:

Well, I have to bump this thread because the final updates are made and published on the Kes Website as a new page named "Voyager Birthdays".

Additional changes have been made to the Timeline, Star Maps, Episode Guide and Book Reviews as well.

So here it is:

Kathryn Janeway: Born 20 May 2335 (Stardate 12383.22)

Comment: According to Memory Alpha and Memory Beta, Janeway's birthday is 20 May. But no official year of birth is to find anywhere. The most realistic birthyear seem to be 2335 which will make the character's age the same as Kathryn Mulgrew's when Voyager started. It will also fit into the scenario in the book "Pathways" in which Janeway met William Riker at Starfleet Academy during her first year there.

Chakotay: Born 19 November 2329 (Stardate 06884.75)

Comment: According to Memory Alpha and Memory Beta Chakotay was born in 2329. The day and month of birth is the same as actor Robert Beltran.

Tom Paris: Born 9 November 2346 (Stardate 23855.06)

Comment: According to Memory Beta, Tom Paris was born in 2346. The day and month of birth is the same as actor Robert Duncan McNeill.

B'Elanna Torres: Born 11 September 2346 (Stardate 23693.37)

Comment: According to Memory Alpha, Torres was born in 2349, however Memory Beta states her year of birth to 2346. Memory Beta is obviously right since B'Elanna is older than Harry Kim.The day and month of birth is the same as actress Roxann Dawson.

Tuvok: Born 2 August 2264. (Stardate -59584.69, old system 3877.4)

Comment: Memory Alpha and Memory Beta states Tuvok's year of birth to 2264. Memory Beta states that Tuvok was born at Stardate 3877.4. That must refer to the old stardate system used before 2323, otherwise Tuvok would be born in 2361 which is far from the truth. Some sources point out Tuvok's birthday at 2 August 2264 which is Stardate -59584.69.

Kes: Born 12 December 2369 (Stardate 46945.5)

Comment: Kes's birthday is celebrated in the season 1 episode "Twisted". Since the episode takes place in 2371, Kes's year of birth is 2369 which is also stated at Memory Alpha and Memory Beta. According to some sources, the Stardate for "Twisted" is 48949.8 which is Sunday 12 December 2371.

Neelix: Born 8 February 2337 (Stardate 14104.14)

Comment: According to Memory Beta, Neelix was born in 2337. The day and month of birth is the same as actor Ethan Phillips.

Harry Kim: Born 5 March 2349 (Stardate 26172.65)

Comment: In the book "The Black Shore", Harry Kim mention that it is his birthday. Memory Beta gives the Stardate of the day to 50175 which is Monday 5 March 2373

The Doctor: Activated 23 April 2371 (Stardate 48308.2)

Comment: According to Memory Alpha and Memory Beta, The Doctor (also known as Lewis Shmullus Zimmerman) was activated at Stardate 48308.2 = Friday 23 April 2371, three days before the official stardate for the episode "Caretaker" which is 48315.6 = Monday 26 April 2371, the day when the crew was beamed back to Voyager from the Caretaker's array and Janeway noted it in the ship's log.

Seven Of Nine: Born 24 June 2348 (Stardate 25479.5)

Comment: According to Memory Alpha, Seven Of Nine (or Annika Hansen) was born at stardate 25479 which according to my Stardate Calculator is 24 June 2348. However, Memory Alpha states her year of birth to 2350 while Memory Beta states her year of birth to 2348. I prefer to go with Memory Beta here since my Stardate Calculator states Stardate 25479 as 24 june 2348.


Some other crewmembers:


Joe Carey: Born 15 August 2338 (Stardate 15622.11)

Comment: According to Memory Beta, Joe Carey was born in 2338. The day and month of birth is the same as actor Josh Clark.

Samantha Wildman: Born 5 May 2347 (Stardate 24356.27)

Comment: According to memory Beta, Samantha Wildman was born in 2347. The day and year of birth is the same as actress Nancy Hower.

Naomi Wildman: Born 19 July 2372 (Stardate 49548.7)

Comment: Naomi Wildman was born in the episode "Deadlock" which takes place at stardate 49548.7 which according to my calculations is Wednesday 19 July 2372.

I might add more crewmember birthday's later

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

With humans if you put the birthday candles on the cake for every year as you advance and the cake becomes more fiery it's amusing and la de da.. OH LOOK 63 CANDLES HAHAHA however did you fit them all on there.. and that's it.

With the Ocampa the 8th candle would be one terrible bell tolling and with the 9th candle you'd be thinking maybe you could save some birthday leftovers and use them for your wake. It would be shit.

 

[at Quark's]

^^ Well since this is her past and she's technically not going to be born for 3+ centuries... no, she would not be dead, yet.

Which in turn again begs the question if you can call a certain date in this year a person's birthday if that very person isn't going to be born for another 3+ centuries

[hux]

We're assuming a year is the same on every planet.

Maybe to Kes, a year is actually six months. Ocampans only actually living for just over four years but nobody bothered to check. Oops. When nobody bought her a cake for her second birthday, she just assumed they must have forgotten.

And what about B'Elanna? If a year on Kronos is longer or shorter than it is on Earth, how does she determine her age? Is she a different age on each planet?

Thanks a lot for the nice comment!

 

[tomalak301]

I'm watching Twisted right now so I'm doing my part to celebrate.

 

[Tracy Trek]

Ha. It looks like Robert Beltran has the same month and day of the month birthday as my mother.

 

[Lynx]

Ha. It look like Robert Beltran has the same month and day of the month birthday as my mother.

In that case, you have three people to celebrate that day: Your mother, Robert Beltran and Chakotay!
