    I'd have to say Voyager, simply because they've managed to do just as much (if not more) than the other crew, without any assistance from the Federation/Star Fleet. They would probably pull a few manuvers that the other ships had never tried. But, it would probably be a close match with the Enterprise-D crew ;)

    Never been to one :D

     

    By the time I found out about one that was held ANUALLY, within 20 miles of my house, they had decided not to do that con again for a while...And I missed it. *kicks self in head*

     

    I still can't believe I missed that...

     

    But, first chance I get I'm going to one :D

    So you never have that happen again, here is a link to the startrek.com convention page:

    Thank you :wow:

     

    I actually have been keeping a very close watch on most of the con's from startrek.com and the magazine, Communicator.

     

    Alas, none near here yet. Maybe one in NY may be plausable, if I can persuade my parents...But I don't think that's very likely.

    One thing that always bugged me..What was with Janeway's hair?! Could they not have figured out something more future like? Thoughts?

    They fiddled around with her hair a lot because they weren't really sure what to do with it. Keep in mind they'd never done a regular female captian before :D

     

    They wanted her to have a commanding presence, and they were trying to find an appropriate balance between her more human side, and her being in command of a starship.

     

    They did her hair about twenty different ways with the bun, if you look carefully, trying to fine-tune the style. I think that in the begining, she didn't even have it in a bun. They put that in later and had to re-shoot parts of the pilot episode.

    You would serve in starfleet as a Commander. You have a command position. You may have started your career in Starfleet by working in engineering. Any of the following positions could be available on a Starship:

     

    Propulsion Engineer

    System Mainenance Technician

    Impulse Engineering Specialist

    Chief of Impulse Propulsion Systems

    Warp Core Supervisor

    System Diagnostic Engineer

    Duty Engineer

    Damage Control

     

    Technology tells us how far we can go in the universe. It tells us who we can talk to, who to help, who to teach, and who we can learn from. Engineers are always willing to experiment with new ways to increase the efficiency of the systems they work with. The only thing worse than a failed experiment is a failure to learn from it.

    "Tony Alleyne, 50, recently placed his small Leicestershire, England, apartment on the market for the equivalent of US$1.7 million, a price he said was realistic because he has spent nearly 10 years crafting the premises as a finely detailed model of the "Star Trek" starship Enterprise. Included, according to an April report in Australia's Herald Sun, are a life-size transporter control, a gigantic warp core drive, voice-activated lighting and security, and an infinity mirror. "If you're going to do something," he said, "you have to go all the way." Alleyne said he started the project as therapy when his wife walked out on him. [Herald Sun, 4-10-03]"

    I don't know if they've still got this, but Target recently had a sale on them.

     

    The 7 in. action figures were about $3.

     

    And I didn't see the ship, but the model of the Enterprise (with lights and sounds) was $10.

     

    Really, really, really amazingly cheap stuff.

     

    Worth it to check and see if they're still on sale. :bow:

    I too, wished Chakotay had ended up with Janeway :bow: seven COULD have gone with Harry (I must admit I never even thought about that) but i thought her and the Doctor would have gone well together! And I always thought Harry would go back to Libby....she DID say she'd wait for him :bow:

    And Harry also was very eager to get a girl, how many did he go after? But yeah, the doc would have understood her better.

     

    Didn't they do almost the same thing with Riker, Deanna Troi and Worf that they're doing with Janeway, Chakotay and Seven? Maybe we'll get a movie that will straighten this out....*hopes*
