What if Star Trek ended this way...

I love this short clip



Space...the Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise, and this is how Star Trek should have ended! Check out Youtube for other 'how it should have ended' clips.

The Star Trek Universe: The Typhon Pact

In the literary Star Trek Universe, the Borg invaded the Federation and their allies space in large numbers and destroyed many planets, literally bringing the Alpha and Beta quadrants to their knees. This was in the Destiny trilogy series in 2008 (my review here). This happened 6 years before the destruction of Romulus which lead to the events of the recent Star Trek movie and the bifurcation of the Star Trek universe into the original and the new version by J.J.Abrams.

In the literary Star Trek universe with the Federation weakened by the Borg invasion, a new group of interstellar civilizations formed the Typhon Pact to fill in the power vacuum. They are the Romulan Star Empire, the Breen Confederacy, the Tzentkethi Coalition, the Gorn Hegemony, the Tholian Assembly and the Holy Order of the Kinshaya. This is a bold move to steer Star Trek into a new direction with new enemies and allies. I look forward to reading about the Typhon Pact, of which only one novel has been published Zero Sum Game.



I like the introduction of a new class of starship, the Vestaclass which uses slip-stream technology which was first mentioned in the Star Trek Voyager series. I appreciate the sleek design of the USS Adventine NCC-82602, captained by Ezri Dax.

The remastering of the three seasons of the Original Star Trek Series has been completed and is for sale. I am wondering whether I should buy it. A showcase by the masters at CBS Digital containing the effects they recreated for Star Trek: Remastered.

Star Trek: 44 years of Awesomeness

On 8 September 1966, NBC aired the first episode of Star Trek in an episode named The Man Trap. That launched the phenomenon known as the Star Trek Universe.



Live Long and Prosper!

I.S.S. Enterprise in the Mirror Universe

The Mirror Universe opening title from Enterprise episodes "In a Mirror Darkly" Parts 1 and 2.




A combat video with TOS U.S.S. Defiant as seen on Star Trek Enterprise.



I enjoy these two episodes in the fourth and final season of the Star Trek: Enterprise television series. I really like the twist at the end of the story.
