  • Picard: Trek sets its direction Back to the Future Past…

    The La Sirena needs to get rid of its boarding party before initiating the planned time-jump, but though that is accomplished, it’s done so at great cost. When the ship makes it back to 2024, the mission continues to be complicated. The change in the time-line happens somewhere in...
  • Totalitarian Recall: Picard and friends start their ‘Penance’…

    The Stargazer has exploded, but apparently the consequences are rather less final than anticpated.

    Inspired by a story from Star Trek: The Next Generation in which Patrick Stewart’s Jean-Luc Picard uncomfortably endured a ‘Picard Day’ aboard the Enterprise  (and where the children onboard celebrated his leadership),  the 16th June has been earmarked as the Twenty-First century equivalent.
