The season 1 finale ended on a violent cliff-hanger, with the 'Lost Boys' having successfully taken over Prodigy's trillion-dollar facilities with not one, but two Xenomorphs at their beck and call.

'Severed Dreams' showcased the main characters' decision to break away from Earth, fundamentally altering the narrative landscape of sci-fi television and character arcs.

I do feel that [Alex] Kurtzman and Noga [Landau] have both maintained the vision, if you will, of Roddenberry, and enhanced it. And I was blessed with this group, the Starfleet Academy cast, because they had done months and months and thousands of hours together by the time I directed them. They had found each other's rhythm.

Watching Tennant's Doctor was like watching an adult version of my son: the infectious joy, the righteous anger, veering so suddenly from one emotion to the other.

Plato's Politeia (the work we call The Republic thanks to Cicero's Latin mistranslation) describes the soul as having three parts: reason ( logistikon), spirit ( thumos), and appetite ( epithumia). But throughout the dialogue, Plato also describes a fourth element... repeatedly, and by name. He calls it the auto politeia (self-constitution): the governing principle that determines how the three parts relate. Plato has it in the text. His readers have looked right at it and counted three for 2,400 years.

I believe in discipline. I do want to—as we say—live long and prosper. There were so many Sunday mornings I woke up groaning: I'll never do that again, after debauched nights at college spent on the beer bus. I've learned that, if you take care of yourself, mother nature will be good to you.

I have ADHD and have found Home Assistant to be a valuable tool for managing executive dysfunction. I use it for audible calendar reminders, laundry reminders, timers, and monitoring my doorbell camera and my nanny cam for my dog. Its also a great source of pure nerdy joy for me. And I recently took the most joyously nerdy step yet in my home automation fixation.

The Science Museum is boldly going where no science museum has (probably) gone before, opening a season of Star Trek events that beam sci-fi imagination straight into the realm of real science. To mark Star Trek's 60th anniversary, the Science Museum will launch several months of events with a late-evening opening of the museum for adults next month. The museum late takes place on Thursday 26th March, and will feature a range of Star Trek themed events throughout the evening.

In 1977, Star Trek was gearing up for a comeback. After being canceled in 1969 and enjoying a brief return as an animated series in 1973, the beloved sci-fi series was finally coming back to live action. History will tell you this resulted in the 1979 film Star Trek: The Motion Picture, but before that, there were very serious plans for a sequel TV series, generally referred to as Star Trek: Phase II.

I wouldn't have been involved if I didn't have the blessing of Avery Brooks," Lofton tells Inverse. " I also look at this episode as a bridging of two different generations of Star Trek; we are part of the legacy Star Trek now, one of the first five shows, and now this is the future of Star Trek.

When someone mentions 1970s science fiction about a band of rebels fighting an evil, totalitarian space regime, your mind almost certainly goes to the original 1977 Star Wars.Failing that, you might think about the 1978 Battlestar Galactica, or even the TV and film versions of Logan's Run. But the oddest and most under-the-radar 1970s sci-fi rebellion show was Created by Terry Nation (the man who gave us the Daleks), Blake's 7 was ahead of its time when it debuted in 1978.

Born Hosato Takei in Los Angeles to Japanese-American parents, he was renamed George by his father after King George VI's coronation. He and his family were forced to live in various US Japanese concentration camps during the second world war, after which Takei went on to study architecture and theatre, including time at the Shakespeare Institute at Stratford-upon-Avon. Takei's early acting career included providing English dubbing voices for 1950s Japanese monster films, including Rodan and Godzilla Raids Again.

It's hard to make peace with the end of a new Star Trek show, especially after years without any Star Trek on the small screen at all - and especially when it comes to a great show like Lower Decks. The Trek franchise is always searching for a new corner of the final frontier to explore, but the animated comedy felt like the freshest addition to the world in decades.
