So it's established that the USS Equinox was one of the many vessels abducted to the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker, but it's not clear what happened after that. Presumably, they were experimented on, as possible mates, just as the Voyager crew and Maquis were. A couple of them might've shown...

To be clear, I'm not including encounters where one side was unaware, like Guinan, Spock, or Dax on Earth in past centuries, or mass abductions like in "North Star" or "The 37's". There was an 88 year gap between Cochrane's flight and the launch of the NX-01. It's safe to say the United Earth...

Finally getting my Regula I model has got me thinking about space stations. Starbases go back to the original series as ports for the Enterprise to visit. After the premiere of "Deep Space Nine", both TNG and later "Voyager" would occasionally reference other "Deep Space" stations, such as...

There's an EXTREMELY lengthy thread in the misc section for people to discuss what podcasts in general they're listening to, but I'm interested in specifically discussing ones pertaining to Trek. For my part, there's two I've been listening to lately. The first was "Trek Untold", which is an...

For those who don't know, the Disney+ series "What If?", dealing with alternate concepts in the MCU. Thus, you can get stories where Peggy Carter got the super soldier serum instead of Steve Rogers, or were T'Challa was abducted from Earth and became Star-Lord instead of Peter Quill. I know...

There's a lot of Youtube videos of folks watching various shows and the occasional movie (fair use laws say you can show 10 minutes of footage). It can actually be fun seeing people's reaction to the shocking or moving moments of a show. Usually, it's current stuff and not so much older stuff...

Forgive me if this is not in the right section. I wasn't sure. Anyways... For those who don't know, Aron Eisenberg and Garrett Wang have been hosting a web series for the past few months or so called "The Alpha Quadrant", along with a former "Big Brother" cast member by the name of Evel Dick...

In "Family Business", DS9 is assigned a new runabout and Sisko promptly names it the Rubicon. In retrospect, this strikes me as rather odd. As someone who admittedly knows very little about the armed forces, the commander of a navy or coast guard base doesn't get to pick the names of new...

A bit of backstory before we get into the hypothetical: As we know, the French-Canadian actress was first cast as Janeway, but after two days of filming, it became painfully obvious that she was not right for the part (too quiet and subdued vs. Kate Mulgrew's confident and energetic...

I wasn't sure how relevant this was. Sportscaster Dick Enberg passed away yesterday. He didn't have any direct connection to Trek, but he was the ex-husband of Jeri Taylor and the father of Alexander Enberg (Taurik and Vorik). I'm sure this is a very sad turn of events for both of them...

I was looking at, and enjoying, my Jenolan model from Eaglemoss, when something occurred to me. Yes, the episode explicitly states that only Scotty and Matt Franklin survived the ship impacting the Dyson Sphere, but what I mean is, what happened to their remains? There's no mention of the...

It's never been stated in any episode or movie, but the concept behind nacelles is that they work in concert with each other to generate a warp field (hence why there's always more than one) and supposedly require line of sight to work with each other. Andy Probert is a firm believer in this...

This is more of a "behind the scenes" thread, but I'll put it in the DS9 category, cause I can't really think of anywhere else to put it. You've probably seen several episodes start with a stock footage the Jenolan model docking at DS9. Now they renamed it the USS Nash for the series, but...

It seems rather common that cast members on TNG, DS9, and Voyager got to direct episodes, but apparently some of them didn't work out or never got the chance. There's a couple of passages from Rick Berman about this in "The Fifty Year Mission" (p. 253 & 254) I'm curious who some of those...

I've gotten a ton of blu-rays this past month. A couple weeks ago, I peeked into what is probably the last used movie store in town and saw a blu-ray of Beyond, (people download the digital copy, then trade the disc in). My sister gave me the pack of the first six movies for xmas, and just...

You know the ship I'm talking about. The beetle-shaped ship that formed the backbone of the Dominion fleet since their first appearance. The one that rammed the Odyssey. The one that Sisko and co. captured on Torga IV and later used to destroy a White facility. Unfortunately, DS9 seemed to...

It just occurred to be that, besides this year being the 20th anniversary of "First Contact", it's also the same anniversary of the last of those fun little ships that Galoob churned out during the early-to-mid 90's. I think the last one was the Enterprise-E, a few months before the movie came...

I was watching a clip from "Emissary" the other day and noticed that the dedication plaque for the Saratoga is visible on the bridge for a second. (You can see it in the shot right after J.G. Hertzler's Vulcan captain meets his fiery demise). I was curious what the plaque said, particularly...

For no particular reason, I pulled out my blu-ray copy of this film. It holds up amazingly well. If you listen to the commentary and watch the special features, you start to understand what a monstrous undertaking this was and what a huge risk it was for the studio. It wasn't just inserting...

Doug has a LOT to say about this. The NX-01 was basically the first "hero" ship to be introduced in the internet age and that probably had a lot to do with it. I like that they show that while the two ships look similar from one angle, they're really very different from most others. I like to...
