Imagine if NBC had picked up the original pilot of Star Trek. Any Trekkie worth his salt has seen the hour-long episode that canonically takes place 13 years before the original series. The casting and characterization are the main differences between the pilot and the actual show. The hot young captain in this episode isn’t …

It’s too bad that we’ll never catch up with the 20th-century ideals of astrofuturism. We are a little under 100 years out from when Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: The Next Generation take place, and I do not think we’ll be able to advance that much. All astrofuturism assumes that the cultural …

It’s easy to say that the costume design in Star Trek is timeless. Those iconic primary-color uniform shirts have stood the test of time, only varying slightly between eras, but not all of the fashions from Star Trek have aged well. I would say Jake Sisko was the biggest fashion victim of the 90s. He …

As Trekkies, we’ve never been short of Star Trek content. There are so many TV shows and movies that we can watch an episode a day sequentially, and it would take us at least a couple of years to finish them all. But just because there’s a lot of Star Trek content collectively doesn’t mean …

The new year is upon us, and you know what that means! It’s time to see what historical events referenced in Star Trek did not occur in 2024! This year, that answer isn’t that hard to find. Lieutenant Commander Data referenced the Irish Reunification of 2024 in the episode «The High Ground.» This line got …

2024 is coming to an end today, and I’m going to be honest: I don’t think that this year is going to see the Irish Unification of 2024 that was predicted in Star Trek: The Next Generation. I could always be wrong; after all, we still have a couple more hours to go this year. …

It’s our last dump of Star Trek memes before Christmas, so I think it’s a great time to revisit all of the legendary Christmas episodes from the various iterations of Star Trek! I’m sure we all remember the jolly holiday cheer that has decked those liminal halls of the starship enterprise over the years, right? …

Star Trek is one of the only TV shows from the 60s that people are still regularly rewatching. I’m not saying that The Beverly Hillbillies wasn’t an incredible piece of television, but they’re not making Beverly Hillbilly TV shows on Paramount+ to this day. The 90s might’ve seen the reassurance of ’60s TV by reviving The …

The Vulcan salute is not the easiest hand gesture in the world. For some reason, I can do it perfectly with my left hand, but I cannot do it at all with my right hand. That’s pretty ironic because I am right-handed. Apparently, I’m not alone because a lot of Star Trek actors have also …
