/c/TenFoward: 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. 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.

It can be from any series, and if you want to pick a favorite from each show go ahead.

Picture very much related.

This seems like a cliché answer, but my favorite overall is The Measure of a Man. Granted, there is a lot I haven't seen (only pieces of DS9 and Voy, and none of the new stuff other than Lower Decks).

I just really like how it raises one specific issue without trying to skirt around it while dealing with it directly.

The Measure of a Man

DATA IS NOT PROPERTY

He is a fully living sentient being. Full stop.

Why couldn't they leave Data alone? He just wanted to feel!

Glad we got that settled!

I don't think that's cliche at all. It's an amazing episode and a great example of how science fiction is a mirror on humanity.

That episode has aged like the finest of wines, it's only gotten more prescient.
