OFFICIAL: New Star Trek series premieres January 2017

The visual language I'm getting from USS Discovery, in addition to the registry number, and (not gonna spoil anything) What I saw in ST: Beyond. I am guessing this is smack dab in between the end of the United Earth Era and The TOS era. The registry is 670 prior to Enterprise, and remember when TOS happened 1701 has been in service 20 years before the 5 year mission started in 2265. (1701 Launched in 2245, TAS: The Counter Clock Incident)


Maybe that's why CBS was so keen on trying to axe Axanar. Utilizing that design is, I suppose, some true fan service to actual Trekkies. Not too crazy about the design itself but I'm sure it'll grow on me. I'm just happy that Star Trek's going to be back on the air.

Honestly, in my estimation, this is either a generation before kirk (axanar era in other terms) OR a ship from that time being recommissioned for some reason after kirk's time, (the lost 1701-b to c era)

I have hopes for a good show with the name, but i need more info! So far this could be a remix of planet of the titans concepts like rebels is doin with mcquarrie star wars.

According to one of the makers of discovery, who is openly gay, there will be lgbt characters and ideas dealt with, so sulu was just a poor attempt at homaging takei...

Im also trusting that the.. CGI used to make this launch video, was a very rushed job, in time for a titillation reveal during comiccon.. as Axanar had better visuals (Maybe that's why paramount want them gone :p)

Im not so pleased they are writing the series like a novel, like Game of Thrones/orange new black/ Stanger things ... id much prefer stand alone episodes. I hate waiting and trying to avoid spoilers.

If @corvus is right on it being a bit before the original series, that worrys me also, as ENT wasn't that well received, is doing it so close to that timeline such a good idea?

Given the starship registry number, I'm guessing it'll take place in a time before the Original Series, though not by much. Either that or we are getting a somewhat older ship that is still in service or is being brought back into service. It looks very much like one of the early concept designs for what eventually became the original Enterprise.

The 50th Anniversary of Star Trek Las Vegas Convention 7th Annual Stonewall Meetup (IMPORTANT TICKET INFO!)

July 23 2016
Hey all,

I'm so excited to hear that so many of you are coming to Vegas for the convention.

I've been awfully quiet since picking up and moving from North Carolina to Las Vegas for my family medicine residency. I will be on my psychiatry rotation during the most of the convention. However, I would love to take part in the activities during the evening if possible and meet you all in person.

Jot down my contact information below. Shoot me a text with your planned meetups. If I have free time from residency, I can even help drive some of you around (and save you some Uber/taxi fees).

On everything but the strategies part, I honestly use the hell out of the wiki even though it's not exactly the best as wikis go. I tend to use my personal wiki contributor pages as a sort of combination character sheet and reference guide, pulling some of the most useful (IMO) information together into one place. There are links to external references there too; I'm really big on one-stop shops for efficiency's sake.

This may not be quite what you're after since my choices might not necessarily align with yours, but it might at least serve as a starting point for you to look into some of that stuff. I'd recommend starting with the "General Reference" and "Nav Table Jumplists" sections.

PS: If you play GW2, I built a much more elaborate page for that game here (started before prelaunch, so years of editing with similar kinds of info).

Wonder how many there is and the criteria etc is..


There is post after post on the /r/STO/ Reddit about this very question, alternating between speculation on that topic, plus the inevitable whining and/or bitching.

Takei on Sulu being gay

July 23 2016
I've been quite on this so far, but I really believe making Sulu gay in Star Trek: Beyond is pure tokenism. Randomly making Sulu gay is NOT representation but the 21st century equivlent of Black Face. The tragic, and untimely death of Anton Yelchin leaves room for a gay man, woman, or trans actor to take on a lead roll in trek. It's the ability to represent a massive community, the opportunity not to just phone it in. We deserve more then a revision.
