Time for another Star Trek Deviantart Day!


A nice collection of Enterprises NX-F. I haven't had a good look at the F until now, I'm not a fan. It's like someone clumsily mashed the E and Voyager together.



The Galaxy-X E-D. While I don't have a problem with the phaser lance (and think it should appear more often), that third nacelle...no. Just no. Call me a purist, but nacelles should always be in pairs. Period.



The 1701 meets the Andromeda Ascendant. Is that the Discovery or SNW version of the 1701? I really should rewatch Andromeda someday, It's just that Babylon 5 and Battlestar Galactica are ahead of it in line...


I don't think that I've posted this TNG cast group shot yet...


A TOS/Doctor Who crossover. My only problem is the usage of TNG-era uniforms for the Klingons and Romulans...


A fanmade shuttle design. It just seems odd that they'd put TNG-style nacelles on a ship that otherwise looks much more advanced...


A nice DS9 tableau. Except that the Galor-class ship is way too small. We've seen Galor-class ships in contrast with the station, and this one is just wrong.


What if the Monster Maroons were actually in TOS colors? They wouldn't look very good, actually...


The TOS crew in an alternate universe where they were played by different actors (the faces are that bad!). I'm tempted to add a link to the Spaceballs stunt double scene.


The Voyager girls. It's odd that they're showing the tops of Torre's tools, but not the actual pocket protector (or the jacket the pocket protector was on). And Janeway's smile is just a bit too wide, like she's a snake about to snap at a mouse.


A portrayal of some of the TAS characters in a more realistic style.



It was inevitable that someone would put Seven in a TOS miniskirt...

For various reasons the painting Nighthawks by Edward Hopper holds a special place in my heart, so when someone does a crossover between it and Star Trek it caught my attention.

Dusty Abell returns with a Trek/Dr. Who crossover fanart. It even includes the modern Trek and Who stars if you're a fan of that.

Matt Parker explains how the Greenwich Observatory defines the Prime Meridian


I knew about some of this stuff from Isaac Asimov articles, but I still learned a lot from the video. Such as how the actual Prime Meridian moved to more precise locations as the measurement equipment got more precise. Until 1984 when they gave up and just picked a line independent of the stars in the sky.

Adam Savage encounters Wah Chang's original tricorder sketch and one of the original tricorders.


I feel that's it's sad that the contributions of Wah Chang, Matt Jeffries, etc. will be forgotten over time. Eventually the only person from the TOS production staff that anyone remembers will be Gene himself.

Adam Savage meets the Okudas.


The Okudas are Trek royalty, up there with Matt Jeffries and Wah Chang. I don't think I've heard them speak before, the closest I got was the technical subtitle commentary tracks for the Trek films.

Stuff Made Here attempts to make the world's smallest (as in shortest front to back) bicycle.


It's ludicrous stuff like this that really makes my day.
