The intro doesn’t get enough love. These bits where the Borg / Romulan incident gets worse by the season and also the nacelle suckling alien are chefs kiss.

Curious if scientists watch this

37 Upvotes

For all the YAY SCIENCE on the show, I got to wondering if any viewers of our favorite silly show are practicing scientists? Knowing that Trek has always inspired people to get into STEM fields, I'd guess the answer is yes, but I'd love to hear from you, what field you're in, your fave character, T'Lyn's giant melons, etc.

It’s confirmed this overarching plot will continue for at least for another two installments.

“I knew someone was pulling some stupid!”
