    SNW Aliens

    What are some of your favorite Strange New Worlds aliens? (Also, if there an online database somewhere that lists Star Trek alien species by series? I couldn't immediately find one and to my surprise Memory Alpha doesn't seem to have one. Thanks!) Some memorable ones for me are the: Shepherds...

    DS9 Relaunch Appreciation

    I want to take a moment to appreciate what the DS9 Relaunch did with these characters. I remember being blown away by the Avatar duology and these earlier books in the series back in the day. (I remember rage-quitting after the Ascendants storyline that had been building for a dozen books all of...

    The Romulan Fleet before the War

    In “In Purgatory’s Shadow,” Sisko says: SISKO: A Dominion invasion of the Alpha Quadrant will affect Cardassia every bit as much as it's going to affect us. Besides, we need all the help we can get. The Dominion picked a perfect time to invade. The Cardassian fleet is in shambles, the Romulans...

    New landscape of the Delta Quadrant

    This post on Twitter got me to wondering what the “current” landscape of the Delta Quadrant might be like after everything that we know has happened since Voyager first passed through it. What do you think? Might a cured Vidiian Sodality…are they even still called a “sodality”…become a...

    Section 31 Star Map

    Has the star map from Section 31 been discussed yet here -- consistencies, inconsistencies, esthetics, etc -- anyone posted a screenshot? How are we feeling about the Minosians from TNG's "Arsenal of Freedom" being from "Chain of Command"'s Minos Korva?

    Romulan Ranks

    Anyone know a good resource for Romulan ranks? There's always Memory Alpha for a thorough look at canon ranks such as they are, but I'm thinking more behind the scenes, historical Roman information, or creative fan fiction. For me they go something like: Admiral -- Admiral Commodore --...

    Whatever happened to the characters after TUC/GEN?

    I started a thread on this over 10 years ago that’s no longer there, and thought I’d try again. Without going into my own ideas right off the bat, what are some of yours? Whatever became of our TOS heroes?

    Population Spacedock

    What are some of the different thoughts on how many people live on spacedock—or its maximum capacity? I’m watching a video about it now and the number 80,000 was given, but that seems low. Also there are the two “spacedocks.” That from TSFS and the possibly larger Starbase 74 version from TNG’s...

    The other Trek series for fans of DISCO

    I'm curious what fans who were introduced to Star Trek through Discovery think of the other series in the franchise. Have you made the leap to any of them? How were they for you?

    Strange Real World

    Trek fans tend to fall in one of two camps: those who see Trek as a vision of our future, and those see it as a period piece in its own. I tend to fall in the former…at least most of the time. As the real world drifts ever further away from what Trek’s future looks like, how would you update...

    Screen Rant article ranking every Trek series

    Screen Rant posted a new article a couple of days ago ranking every Trek series from worst to best. What do you all think of it and its reasoning? Is it time to reconsider our own rankings through fresh eyes? (No, I’m not asking for them.)

    The Edge of Midnight, by Seamus Devenish

    Is anyone else reading/listening to this? I want to cry it's so good!

    The Wider Galaxy

    What do you think is going on in the galaxy at the early part of the 25th century beyond what we saw in seasons 1-3? Terry seems to have some ideas that he'd love to put to screen (ie what's happening in the Klingon Empire), and fingers crossed that's a little more likely to happen with PIC...

    What episode is it that...

    Burnham sees a vision of planets being destroyed...they look like Andor, Tellar, Earth, and Vulcan.

    The Cardassian Sphere

    I remember watching DS9 first-run and marveling at all the new aliens on and around this "deep space" station far from Earth and the Federation core. I imagined it would take weeks to get there––months maybe for civilians. Where was this place exactly? For as unfamiliar as it seemed (no...

    A Brief Timeline of Ancient Interstellar Civilizations

    — After talking with some friends recently, I put this timeline of ancient civilizations together for myself and thought I'd share (I may or may not expand it with beta canon): The Q have always existed. (VOY "The Q and the Grey") Since before our sun burned hot in the sky: the Guardian of...

    Local Star Powers

    It might be too late to add to my previous thread Less Discussed Star Powers so here's a new one. This is my cursory list of local star powers in order of possible strength that I think locals would know and think about as we do different nations on the planet today. Who would you add to the...

    If it had been the Romulans

    The original idea for DS9 used the Romulans in the place of the Cardassians as the main baddies of the series. How might this have gone differently? Some thoughts that come to mind are 1. the Klingon arc in Season 4 and Worf’s involvement would have had additional meaning given the intense...

    Notes from the A Stitch in Time audiobook

    Some of my notes (hastily organized) from the audiobook for the top-shelf A Stitch in Time by Andrew J. Robinson – Summer '23: Unabridged, read by the author/Garak himself. What is it to be a Cardassian? Cardassian Myth and Culture: The Mogrund: a phantasmal creature from Cardassian myth...
