/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.

Ok. Striking resemblance in the pictures you've chosen.
Is The Expanse worth skipping a rewatch of Voyager to slot in that timeslot instead?

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 30 points 1 week ago

I'll never tell you to NOT watch a Trek series, but The Expanse is excellent, and definitely worth a watch.

[–] cymbal_king@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The Expanse does a good job delving into somewhat realistic internal solar system travel/physics in the not too distant future and politics of Earth vs Mars vs asteroid "Belters" factions

I went into it as a fan of the books, so your experience may be different, but it was DOPE.

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

"DOPE" is probably the most succinct way to describe it. It's a helluva good watch.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I went into it never having read the books. Best damned sci-fi series I've seen in a very long time.

[–] proudblond@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I’m currently reading (listening to) the books after watching the show and the books are also DOPE. I know some things were changed but man the show had phenomenal casting.

[–] 13igTyme@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

After watching the series I wanted to get the books, but I can't find a copy that doesn't have Amazon slapped all over it.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 9 points 1 week ago

There's a good chance you won't stand Voyager after watching a show as good as The Expanse.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

The Expanse is peak sci-fi. Don't sleep on it.
