Scales and Ridges, Part 15 by: Thomas Oakes
Sparks flew from consoles all over the Enterprise as the great ship began and maintained a slow tumble in space that resembled, more than anything else, a great white shark doing somersaults in space.

He was about to contact Engineering for an update when the chief engineer beat him to the punch....
Trek Mate Presents: An Interview With Larry Kenney

It was an amazing interview spanning all of his career and this has by far been my favourite piece of podcasting I have ever done, it will be hard to beat. Larry is best known for voicing Lion-O from ythe hit eighties cartoon Thundercats, and he has a vast catalogue of work spanning the last 50 years. You can...
The captains and the games they play by Rick Austin
Captain Kirk once said that “The more complex the mind, the greater the need for the simplicity of play”. It’s not only a great quote but it’s also true. It’s what I always tell people when they want to know why I’d waste my time playing computer games, board games or even kite flying. It may sound arrogant, but I seriously advise anyone to remember it and use it in similar situations. After a hard day at work we all need to unwind,...

The name Section 31 comes from Starfleet Charter Article 14 Section 31 which allows for a bending of the rules when under extreme threat.

I Believe In The Star Trek Future
Envision: Peace between all mankind; enough food and accommodation for everyone that needs it; a society that encourages everyone to explore whatever life they want; and children taught to care for the environment they live in and to reach for the stars. This is the future that Star Trek has always portrayed. It’s a vision that has given us all hope for our future. However, we are currently stuck in a rut. We live in a world...
