Alive, sure. However would the Backup EMH be active after that occurred? Supposedly in the 31st century this EMH is long separated from Federation. Maybe they don’t wish to be active without the people they knew? On top of that they are a backup. Does this version survive the events of “Living Witness”? Will it wish to preserve itself in case it can be reunited with Voyager (or somehow returned to 24th century).

EDIT: We can only assume they got separated and unable to return to Federation due to events of DIS. Before DIS, it would be assumed the Federation was still in a stable state we saw it during 24th century.

I swear Universal said Jurassic World: Dominion would be the last movie for the franchise, then two years later they announced Rebirth.

Back in January I went into a Bagel Me! and it looked like New York City from the 90s as depicted in tv and movie. Such a weird feeling.

I just call everyone who wears them an idiot. Idiocracy used them as shoes of the future because of the look.

Can you please rephrase that? I don’t understand what you mean.

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 1 points 3 days ago

Correction: At least you can read it.

Yeah but it was priced at like ~$430. I was disappointed by that. Too expensive for me.

EDIT: I realize this was the U.S. tariffs likely having an impact. It would have been nice if The Wand Company could have let U.S. based buyers know what the intended price was prior to the tariff impact. Secondly due to the way it sold out when it initially went on sale in the U.K., having no public listing means I can’t go back and buy this without a private link that TWC is emailing. Old links don’t work in this case.

I just did a search for Kevin.

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 7 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Which Kevin? The Kelvin Timeline Teenaxi, the Human security guard or Peanut Hamper’s father?

Hey hey! Kirk didn’t do anything wrong! He had a child with Carol Marcus but it was Carol who did want him around. Jim is the innocent father.

Okay, two of them aren’t even the same vegetable.

Finally, RockLove have gotten the Picard d’ja pagh restocked! I won’t spoil Picard season 3, but this earring was featured in an episode. Not only was it featured but the actual prop was designed by the CEO of RockLove. The one they sell is made from the same molds.

I had this before but the chain on it broke. So happy I can buy another.

EDIT: If anyone was wondering if they had a Kira Nerys d’ja pagh, yes. It is currently in stock. I wear mine a lot. All my earrings are Star Trek related. https://www.rocklove.com/products/star-trek-x-rocklove-kira-nerys-bajoran-cuff-earring

 

I want to live in a world where a person like Kor can accept a person like Dax.

 

If you have not seen this documentary, you now have no excuse. Go watch it.

 

William Shatner will be touring the U.S. from July 30-November 16 (he is already scheduled to appear at STLV, so a lack of August dates). He is screening Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan with a Q & A.

Does anyone have experience attending an event of this type or specifically a Shatner centric event? Would you recommend attending this? I have an opportunity to go to one of the tour dates. A single general ticket is $64.70

 

It is a Displate poster of the Enterprise NCC-1701-D senior crew. This was unexpected. I only see this person in passing for an hour before I leave (they work overnight). Trekkies really are great people.

Also the card they got is of Kirk with stickers inside.

If you want to see a better quality image of the artwork (the poster is metal), here is a link to the Displate website.

Sharing my photo of me at Vasquez Rocks that I mentioned in a different post.

Looks much smaller in person. Didn’t get a chance to get upclose. I was cutting it close on time to make it to Universal Studios Hollywood for Fan Fest Nights (it was a 2 hour drive in stop and go traffic for me).

But um, yay! I got to see the Famous Rock (the formation featured throughout Trek). There is another formation called Witch’s Hat (for looking like a witch’s hat).

 

So I wanted to start off by saying, yesterday was my birthday, the reason I chose to go on the second to last night of Fan Fest Nights. Earlier in the day I drove out to Vasquez Rocks (approximately 40 miles from Universal Studios). It was such an amazing night.

For those unaware, Fan Fest Nights is a new (first year) after hours event at Universal Studios Hollywood celebrating fandoms. Specific to the event, not preexisting were: Star Trek, Dungeon & Dragons, Back to the Future (the backlot had the entire Hilly Valley town square built for the event), One Piece, and Jujutsu Kaisen. This event included themed walking attractions (aka shows), characters (photo ops), food, drinks, and merchandise.

For Star Trek we got Red Alert a walking attractions that emulated the attraction from Star Trek: The Experience in Las Vegas years ago. Red Alert set in 2403, where you travel from Spaceport Los Angeles to Athan Prime to visit the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D (featuring the actual bridge set from Picard season 3) located at the Fleet Museum. Depending on when you went during the night, different actors/aliens would be seen. Among the species were Human, Trill, Bajoran, Andorian, Vulcan, Orion and one I couldn't name (I swear was Elaysian but didn't make sense due to gravity). At certain points actors would look for guest wearing Picard era uniforms (like myself) and ask them to check their Combadge.

Aside from Red Alert, the park featured Quark's Cafe for themed food and beverage and Ten Forward for additional alcoholic beverages. I had a Cardassian Dog, Vulcan Fritters and Bajoran Hasperat (I forgot to get a photo of the hasperat since it wasn't available when they opened for general admission). As for the beverages I had a Orion Hurricane (real delaq not included) from Quark's and Ceti Eel Margarita at Ten Forward (gummy eels in it).

I bought myself one piece of merch, Ceti Eel earrings. I need to get my right ear pierced now.

The video linked is my recording of Red Alert.
