She brought such positive energy to fans during her time on Discover.
Her Twitter was full of enthusiasm. CBS was so much less limiting of the actors’ social media engagement. Paramount really hasn’t done well by limiting engagement to the EPs.
It’s unfortunate there hasn’t been opportunity for her appear in Strange New Worlds.
It won the only series Emmy ever for the franchise.
It sounds like he was in premed when he met his wife, but then went on a different track while she became a physician.
Controlled technology and not easily built from scratch even by Starfleet engineers.
The Relaunch novelverse expanded the concept and importance of industrial replicators. When Voyager returned to the Delta Quadrant, she led an small ‘Full Circle’ fleet that included a large engineering ship that did have industrial replicators large enough to reconstruct ships when severely damaged.
Lowere Decks and Prodigy have brought industrial replicators into onscreen canon.
Prodigy gave the Protostar prototype ship an industrial replicator large enough to construct shuttles. Lower Decks has shown the Cerritos and other ships tasked with delivering and bringing online very large industrial replicators on planets seeking Federation support.
It feels like the chose them to fill in the gaps in the collections of fans across every show and the movies - but also to profile legacy characters featured in new productions.
Rachel Garrett is surely there because of S31 and Jellico is more popular than ever after Prodigy.
Most structural starship components would require large industrial replicators.
These seem to always be centrally located and powered.
What someone can do with a small home model would be quite different.
I saw him at a con in the late 80s.
By way of concession, when responding not so enthusiastically to questions from the audience about the shenanigans Shatner and Nimoy got up to in order to blow off steam during long shooting days, Doohan said that since he’d been in real combat in WW2, he had a different approach to work and not a lot in common with them.
TNG movies are tricky in that they do embed a few spoilers.
If your wife doesn’t get into DS9, I’d consider hopping over to Voyager. It’s uneven throughout its run, but has many ‘best of trope’ episodes, and has proved to be the most successful entry series to the franchise of all of them.
He doesn’t want to hear because he is known for blurting things out to media and fans…
Came here to say this! THE WHITE BELTS!
If they’re in primary school, start them off on Odd Squad.
It’s a madcap Canadian TVO Kids (TV Ontario) public broadcaster educational math show that was made with partner funding from PBS in the United States, and is now available online in many other countries.
The creators and writers clearly knew and referenced Star Trek.
‘The Trouble with Centigurps’ ’ episode is a straight up Tribble Trouble homage with skip counting.
Here’s a season one Odd Squad trailer.
Ok, what I’m seeing in this picture is Coneheads.
Here’s another take.
We know that everything was reshaped to flatter and entice Patrick Stewart to come back and play Picard.
He kept refusing and keep on insisting on Picard’s life should be a reflection of his own.
But the suits at ViacomCBS (and later Paramount) put priority on greenlighting anything they could get with Picard as a character.
So, whatever initial concepts with and without Picard were all sacrificed in the end in order to indulge Stewart enough to play the role.
It’s absurd. Our kids ended up playing Star Trek with Playmobil’s space and ‘Future Planet’ planetary exploration lines. (I doubt these even still exist.)
When the Star Trek line finally arrived it was only TOS.
All of which begs the question “How is it that Jeff Goldblum has not yet appeared in the Star Trek franchise”
And this is why Discovery and other new shows are only getting 5 seasons.
Contracts are for 7 calendar years not seven seasons.
With problems launching new shows, COVID-related slowdowns and a writers strike, Discovery managed to produce 5 seasons in 7 years.
The sale is supposed to last until the end of today September 15th. Usually, that would be until midnight Pacific time.

We picked up 3 copies of Resurgence the evening of the 14th from Canada.
We’ve tried most of them over time.
Star Trek Resurgence has consistently excellent reviews. It’s about a 25 hour role play where the player makes choices for two different crew - a senior bridge officer and an NCO in engineering. It’s well done and one of our teens and I are enjoying it a lot. Great value for the sale price. My patience on this one was reinforced by its initial release being exclusive to Epic - but on Steam and on sale it’s worth it.
Bridge Crew is an older game. I have had it for a couple of years, and took advantage of the sale to pick up copies for each of our kids Steam accounts. One of them got really into it right away.
Timelines is also older. It held their interest for a bit in middle school but doesn’t seem to be one of the better tie-ins.
Star Trek Online is a long running massively multiplayer game that starts out free but then can cost a lot for in-game purchases. One of our teens is into it, and got fairly far without purchasing much, but the Steam sale is a good opportunity for them to buy things they’ve had on their wish list.
As a parent, I find these better than the endless number of Star Wars mods on Roblox that one of ours got into for a while.

Isn’t that what the sitcom Tawny Newsome is developing will be?
