u/wil offered to do an AMA with us to promote a new podcast he just announced and of course talk Trek with us on Wednesday March 26th at 4pm ET/1pm PT!

I don't like linking back to the other site, but figured some people here might appreciate it.

Hey everyone! 👋 My name is Viktoriya. I'm the editor of the https://bestsimilar.com/tag/14215-star-trek page, where we compile lists of movies similar to Star Trek. I want to make it as useful as possible and find the absolute best films that Star Trek fans will love. If you have favorite movies with a similar vibe—sci-fi, space exploration, new worlds, great characters—please share them here! What films do you think deserve to be in the top list? I’d really appreciate any recommendations! 🚀✨

Katee looks like she's going to pop, she's so excited. :)

Posting a few thoughts as a comment to keep things somewhat unassuming.

One of the core tenets of "Star Trek" is an undercurrent of pacifism. The ships we see in any given "Star Trek" series are usually research vessels devoted to missions of exploration and study. Just as often, they do repair work on distant worlds, help planets in severe environmental trouble, or taxi diplomats to important peace talks. And while the U.S.S. Enterprise is equipped with weapons like phasers and photon torpedoes, they are only very rarely assigned a mission of combat. More often, the crew of the Enterprise will threaten a potential battlefield foe while still doing everything they can to avoid war.

My father got himself a laser cutting machine for Christmas. He found the plans for this kit and cut it out. I've spent the last couple weeks slowly assembling/gluing it together. Today, it is finished.

I've only found this on amazon.de and they have no stock. Doing a web search turns up nothing. It's like it never existed, but the listing on amazon.de says it was released on January 31st 2023. Can anyone help?

The authors (according to the listing) are Crewman Daniels, Rick Sternbach, Michael Okuda, Trevor Gleeson, Mike Smith, David Ultra, Susan McNichols. But it's independently published which makes no sense. Maybe it's a scam. Here's the Amazon link https://www.amazon.de/-/en/dp/B0BTKSP6QF/?psc=0

This was a special designed to introduce Season 2 of TNG and I remember Patrick Stewart talking about what we could expect and being so excited.

I was 11.

It seems that Cardassians would probably be annoyed and bored by most historical earth procedural shows. Columbo though lets them know up front who is guilty and of what, and the rest of the running time is the investigator mentally toying with the perpetrator. I think it would be very appealing to Cardassians to watch a protagonist that forces a perpetrator to break down and confess their crimes in every episode.
