Happy Birthday Captain💛✨ I wish you a wonderful magical day 🥰! ✨✨ And now about this drawing … I have felt in such uncharted waters all along the process. These magenta and green were like making fun of me. They don’t blend well, both. They are both the only pencils I have that have such a weird texture, and I don’t know why I chose them together here… but that’s not me. The Captain made me do it ! Now I also feel the urge to go back to a safe place with more cooperative pencils and associations. But really I’m happy with what I did here. 😋✨ . . . . @williamshatner #williamshatner #captainkirk #jameskirk #jamestkirk #startrek #startrekkers #startrekoriginalseries #startrekart #startrekfanart #startrekfan #starfleet #trekkie #sciencefictionart #sciencefictionartwork #startrektos #startrekuniverse #rainbowart #rainbowdrawing #rainbowartwork #rainbowaesthetic #fabercastell #fabercastellpolychromos #carandache #carandacheluminance #strathmore #strathmoreart #artofhelpingartists (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqGPw7SIuRX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

ESP32-S3 Mini TV demo for Star Trek Day 🖖📺🔊

This Mini TV demo

by moononournation is perfectly themed for Star Trek day, playing the TOS and STNG intros at 480x480 12fps MJpeg and 22KHz I2S MP3 audio. We'll try Cinepak next, but this was an easy first start, and it looks and sounds great. There's a little tearing effect due to the low frame rate and the display being single, not double-buffered, but considering this is a $4 microcontroller module running Arduino, it's very impressive! This may be the first time we've seen reasonable size-and-quality video+audio playback! This was our last 'test' for the ESP32-S3 TFT Experimenter board. All functionality has been tested, and it's ready to go out for manufacture - only one blue-wire fix is needed to change the default I2C address of the GPIO expander :)

Star Trek: Boldly Going Where No Show Has Gone Before

In the vast expanse of science fiction, there are few franchises that have captured the hearts and minds of fans quite like Star Trek. Created by Gene Roddenberry, the original Star Trek series premiered in 1966 and quickly became a cultural phenomenon. Set in the 23rd century, Star Trek offered a compelling blend of space exploration, ethical dilemmas, and visionary storytelling. In this blog post, we will delve into the world of the original Star Trek series and explore its enduring impact on popular culture and its profound messages of hope and unity.       

Visionary Storytelling: Star Trek introduced viewers to the starship USS Enterprise and its diverse crew, led by the charismatic Captain James T. Kirk. The series pushed the boundaries of television by tackling social and political issues of the time through the lens of science fiction. Episodes addressed themes such as racism, war, morality, and the quest for knowledge. Star Trek's storytelling prowess allowed it to offer thought-provoking narratives that resonated with audiences and encouraged them to reflect on the world around them.

A Diverse and United Crew: One of Star Trek's most remarkable qualities was its diverse cast, particularly for its time. The crew of the Enterprise included characters from various racial and ethnic backgrounds, working together harmoniously towards a shared mission of exploration and discovery. This inclusive vision of the future broke new ground and inspired generations of viewers, showing a future where diversity is celebrated and where people can come together to overcome challenges.

Breaking Down Barriers: Star Trek's visionary outlook extended beyond racial diversity. The series also broke down gender stereotypes and explored gender equality through characters like Lieutenant Uhura, the communications officer, and Lieutenant Commander Janice Rand, the ship's yeoman. These female characters were portrayed as capable, intelligent, and essential members of the crew, challenging traditional gender roles and inspiring countless women to pursue careers in science, technology, and other male-dominated fields.

Technological Advancements: Star Trek's influence on technology and innovation is undeniable. The series introduced futuristic concepts that later became real-world inventions. From handheld communicators resembling modern smartphones to the ship's iconic transporter, which inspired the idea of instant teleportation, Star Trek's futuristic gadgets sparked the imaginations of scientists and engineers, contributing to the development of new technologies.

The Legacy Lives On: The original Star Trek series ran for three seasons, but its impact has endured far beyond its initial run. The show spawned numerous spin-offs, movies, books, and a passionate fan community. Star Trek's core themes of exploration, diplomacy, and the search for knowledge have resonated across generations, fostering a sense of hope and optimism for a future where humanity can overcome its differences and work towards a better world.

Conclusion: Star Trek stands as a cultural touchstone, igniting a passion for exploration, equality, and imagination. The original series laid the foundation for an enduring franchise that continues to captivate audiences today. Its vision of a future where humanity strives to better itself, celebrates diversity, and explores the unknown continues to inspire countless individuals to pursue their dreams and work towards a brighter tomorrow.

So, let us raise our glasses and toast to Star Trek, the series that dared to go where no show had gone before, and may its legacy continue to inspire future generations to boldly seek out new worlds, new ideas, and new possibilities. Live long and prosper!

New WIP ! My new Captain Kirk, on who I decided to use mostly the color with which I’m the least comfortable 😅 . I have had so much trouble getting my draft about right, and here is the actual portrait, even greener that I had planned. I hope you’ll like it, because that green, on a face, may end up totally ugly weird , or really cool and original. Let’s see ! . . . . #captainkirk #jamestkirk #startrek #startrektos #jameskirk #williamshatner #startrekkers #startrekoriginalseries #startrekart #startrekuniverse #startrekfanart #startrekfan #starfleet #trekkie #sciencefictionart #sciencefictionartwork #startrek💫 #fabercastell #fabercastellpolychromos #carandache #carandacheluminance #strathmore #strathmoreart (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp3QJHEIUez/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The "Nubbin bug" lives - A Star Trek prop resurrection with 3D Printing 🐛🖖🎥

Star Trek: The Next Generation, Season 1, Episode 25 (May 1988), "Conspiracy", was one of my favorites. It featured a mind-controlling alien parasite referred to as the "Nubbin bug", or at least by The Greatest Generation Star Trek podcast.

Back in 1998, there was not a lot of computer CGI, so it was a stop-motion prop. Years later, the co-hosts of The Greatest Generation, a fun Star Trek podcast, stumbled upon the original silicone molds used to create the Nubbin bug while a listener found in a warehouse clearance sale in Van Nuys, California.

The podcasters acquired the mold. Shortly after, a listener from Atlanta who works at a prop studio offered to help preserve the prop since the original rubber material would decay over time. This led to the creation of archival-quality plaster casts to preserve the iconic alien for generations to come.

And they did some more, using 3D scanners - the Nubbin bug was recreated as a 3D model, allowing for exact replicas to be printed. Over 100 of these replicas were made, each one hand-painted and assembled to match the original as closely as possible. Their handmade / 3D-printed versions look almost identical to the bugs that appeared in the episode.

They also designed a Playschool-style retail packaging box to package the bugs. Fans of the podcast can purchase the limited-edition replicas. I don't know if they will post the 3D files, but I'll email and ask.

This is a really cool project from one of the weirdest/best episodes, and I am thrilled that someone was able to preserve this piece of Sci-Fi history in such a cool way - the entire story is on this TikTok video.

No word where this cutie is though.

I liked his points of view and what he said about what they  (paramount and producer) are doing with Captain Kirk, whoever makes these new series doesn't like Captain Kirk because he is straight, strong and not fragile like these new weak without testosterone (characters) who cry all the time
