Star Trek: The Next Generation I Qpid

Every once in a while, I think to myself, "Wouldn't it be fun to have a Star Trek show that followed one of the science and research ships?" before I remember that the diplomacy and action are Pretty Big Draws to the show, and most people wouldn't actually be as thrilled as I would be to have what would essentially amount to "Nat Geo In Space With Aliens".

Can you imagine it, though? Nat Geo in space? With aliens??? Speculative biology, and anthropology xenopology (xenology? idk), astrophysics, et cetera -

Well. I can dream.

I feel deprived that we never saw these two meet, though they likely crossed paths at some point in their careers.

i got into star trek as a bit and now unfortunately ive realized its one of the most beautiful shows ever. its about love and family and exploration and warmth and possibilities and a hopeful and wonderful future. and its also so so fucking stupid

This also applies to those conservatives Trekkies, like sir??? The original series was the most politically potent of all

Fascinated by this phenomenon

Deep Space Nine writers: Garak and Julian have heated debates about literature over lunch on a regular basis.

Also deep space nine writers: Cardassians view arguing as a courtship ritual.

Don't think about that.

'Deep Space Nine' should have had a Bajoran name.

​made me think of the parasites from that one Star Trek episode

Many entities located in a newly discovered area of the Far Plane. Entities form a body of water 2 around them that acts as both a vehicle and shield, allowing them to climb the walls of their environment. When they get to the ceiling, they fall back into the water 2 and start the cycle again.

Check out the insane level of detail in this background graphic from Admiral Pike's office in Star Trek Into Darkness

A ds9 episode where every shot pays way too much attention to random set pieces in a manner that heavily implies it may be Odo while the action happens in the background. Odo does not appear or feature in the plot of the episode at all.
