Wait, wait, wait. I know you were just about to post about how it's never actually stated that there were no female captains, or how there's evidence against it. I'm also sure that whatever your point was it's valid.
BUT, let's assume for a moment that it is in fact true that in Kirk's era...
I think it's safe to assume that the Fermi Paradox existed for earth in the Star Trek universe. So what was the answer to it?
Whether your not you believe Vulcanians and other species were zipping around and colonizing world's prior to 2063; how come humanity hadn't detected these sepcies?
In...
You are hired by a Chinese company to create an off brand Star Trek what would it be like? The goal is to get as close to Star Trek as possible without crossing the line. It doesn't have to make sense or be good, just get as close as possible so that an unwitting purchaser might buy yours...
I'm working on a video that will explain how the systems work on the original Enterprise based on onscreen evidence. As part of this I'm creating some diagrams to help illustrate who these systems work.
This is my first draft for the warp drive fuel flow pattern. Basically a small amount of...
So I'm reviewing some episodes to try and figure out the Enterprise's warp drive system and "That Which Survives" appears to be quite the PITA. So *spoiler alert* Losira fuses the Emergency (Overload) Bypass Control. Somehow this sends the ships engines into runaway mode and the ship will...
Well, after five years I got a new phone and wanting to protect my investment I also got a phone case. The scifi look of the case inspired me to take it to the next level. So I customized my case in the theme of my fan version of Star Trek: Enterprise (see links in signature). What do you think?
Over the past few days I've been trying to create the ultimate Star Trek font. What I mean by that is creating a font that is a combination of all the title fonts from the four Star Trek series and ten movies. Here are the results I came up with:
1. The average shape of the title fonts of...
For as long as I can remember the definition of Star Trek Canon was "whatever is seen on screen." I remember this particularly well becasue of my debates regarding Enterprise. This definition never included creator intent, unless that intent showed up on screen. For example there are a lot of...
The Enterprise was at Rigel 7 where some of Pike's crew were killed and injured. At the beginning of "The Cage" Pike is headed from Rigel to the Vega colony to take care of their sick and injured. But why is Pike going to Vega instead of Earth? Rigel is about 860 light years from earth. Vega is...

The scary thing is that if this is correct, many people already have the cause in their body. It's just a matter of you dying before you deteriorate.
I was reading through the first pitch of Star Trek and I had a delightful thought. What if I made a fan film based on this first pitch? I think it would a quite a fun project to work on and also be a unique concept among fan films. The idea would basically be to present what Star Trek would have...
I saw a mission profile chart for an Apollo lunar mission and knew I just had to make this. This details the launch and first warp flight of the Phoenix in 2063. Let me hear your comments and critiques. If you notice any spelling errors or things that don't make sense, just let me know.
The other thread had me thinking, are there any episodes you dislike that are usually considered good?
For example, I find "The City of the Edge of Forever", "The Empath" and TNG's "The Inner Light" to be boring snooze fests. They may have good payoffs at the end and good character development...
Greetings all. As the art and stories surrounding my S.S. Enterprise UEV-47 continue to expand, I will be needing a new place to house this project. After a few weeks of work I finally got a homepage up. It's just a landing page for now, but I plan on expanding it as the project grows. On this...
In 45 years Zefram Cochrane will invent warp drive and we will make First Contact with Vulcanians. Sure, we have to get through WWIII to get there. But it should be worth the price.
Right?
Anybody?
Anyone else watching TLC's Seeking Sister Wife? So far I like it better that Sister Wives. I'm glad that they included a non-Mormon family, because I think too often polygamy in America is viewed as just a "Mormon thing." When in reality there are all different types of polygamists here.
So I just finished watching the Black Mirror episode "USS Callister." And it got me thinking again about strange social experiments that would be interesting (though unethical) to try. For example. What if you built a full scale "working" replica of the Enterprise. Then you snatched someone up...
I'm taking a break from hammering out my Enterprise shuttle panels and decided to build Andrew Probert's concept for the Enterprise-D's Bridge. I've always loved the large spacious version. It's just a beast and it would have been awesome to see this on the screen.
I've started out, as always...
