/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Gosh dang this show was ahead of it's time. It was practical military and humanizing space before BSG. We weren't ready for it.
Space: Above & Beyond would like a word
I love carter, but definitely not a good fit for starfleet. Too "us military" for peaceful exploration. Also too moral for Sec. 31.
Definitely daystrom institute, specializing in first hand field research.
She was NASA, and Air Force, which is the least US Military of the US Military.
Pff. If Carter had been in Voyager the Delta quadrant would have been a single episode.
Carter would have set up timers on all their torpedoes, found a way to get them home with the caretaker's station, and had the torpedoes beamed all over the station set to explode minutes after the ship got launched back.
Figures the ONE TIME Janeway respects the prime directive....
Gotta make sure those torpedoes are are armed with C-4 warheads, though.
If they had access to photon torpedoes on the daedalus/prometheus/Apollo etc, they'd definitely use them.
C4 is a sidearm though, everyone needs a cargo pant pocket filled with it
She looks like a good fit for deep space radar telemetry.
Probably in need of a new toaster, as well..
In her defense, an air force captain is not the same rank as a captain in the Navy, which the starfleet ranks are based on. She'd be like a lieutenant commander in starfleet. So I think she'd fit right in.
She made full-bird colonel (O6) eventually, which is Captain in the Navy
Meh, she's only a captain in the beginning. As far as I'm concerned, she's Colonel Carter.
She made it to full colonel by the time of Atlantis, same rank as the full-time commanders of Earth's biggest space carriers.
I had no idea. That's interesting.
Daystrom Institute, first hand field research... That's the best Star Trek pitch I've ever heard!
Best to file off the serial numbers and do it outside Paramount, though. They're evil now.
There's also that episode where Jack claims to be Kirk...
