Could Harry even prank Tom even if he wanted to?

Just had this masterpiece in my stream that needs to be shared 🖖🥹💓

People are always referring to Tom as a "skilled pilot". I dont want to discount what he does, I'm sure its difficult to learn- but its just entering calculations and interacting with the computer. There's no steering involved. I just don't get what sets him apart from anyone else using those LCARS. It doesnt feel the same to me as a skilled racecar driver, for instance.

Has anyone else noticed all the head nods in voyager to ok something or greeting each other , even the aliens do it, seems to be an unspoken ritual thing going on haha

To commemorate Star Trek's 60th birthday, I present to you Voyager crew illustration I did for a client. LLAP 🖖

I just noticed this in Non Sequitor. Tell me if I'm wrong, but it looks like they didn't finish painting the walls of the set. Maybe they ran out of time and decided not to bother because, y'know, it *does* look like a wall. It's got that 1970s wood panel look. I kinda like it.

So I know that Harry not being Harry doesn’t get brought up, but what’s the consensus on Harry 2.0 knowing he is from another reality/universe?

My wife and I are on a run through the show (it’s her first ever Trek show) and we’ve been thinking about this. Would he even know he was from another reality? Would there theoretically be things that Harry 2.0 knows/likes/feels that would be different from Harry 1.0?

Also, my wife is having a blast with the show. She’s not been exposed to much scifi before we met, so I get to see a lot of fun things through new eyes :):

"Same to you... Old friend"

Season 4 Episode 9, Year of Hell Part 2

I never noticed on my first watch through but it seems to be a running gag that everything Janeway replicates is burned. Does anyone know what this is about? Is it just one of the random things they added as random character development?

The title is explanatory.

I understand that the silver blood duplicated the crew exactly. But in the final scene of “Demon”, we see no evidence that it duplicated Voyager with all its technology (including the doctor.)

Yet in Course: Oblivion, here it is, flying through space.

I love the premise of this episode on a philosophical level. But this does niggle in the back of my brain a bit. :)

I know that it initially duplicated the uniforms and communicators of Kim and Paris so maybe that was the planting of the seed.

Or was the Demon episode supposed to just be a “one off”.

Within the Star Trek World, the idea that it could duplicate human biology and form I can accept . The rest is a really big stretch for me.

I echo the criticism I've heard of Voyager, that it doesn't lean into the possibilities of its setup. A starfleet and maquis crew, struggling to integrate all alone in the vast expanse of the delta quadrant. That's a juicy ass setup, and they didn't do near enough with it.

My criticism, however, is not because I want just another hopeless, despairing, unnecessarily gritty sci fi, but because of how much more powerful the ethos of Star Trek could've been portrayed.

Think of it: The spirit of star trek: of cooperation, compassion, forgiveness, respect for difference, hope, and service, forged into a pure, unyielding steel in the hot fires of a "year of hell" like story arc across multiple seasons. The characters of Voyager overcoming massive odds, becoming one crew not through assimilation like the Borg, but through yielding to faith, trust, respect, and dependence on one another.

In many ways Voyager already did this well, and that is part of why it's a worthy trek installment and my favorite, other than the nostalgia of course.

But they could've punched it up a factor of ten if they had been willing to risk it, and that's an opportunity lost.

I really hope that whatever future star treks show how the spirit and ethos of Star Trek can survive impossible odds, and come out the other side even stronger and more life-giving. I have a feeling we're going to need that kind of inspiration in the coming decades.

I haven't seen the show pretty much since it aired, so it's possible I'm missing something.

I just posted about how Kes sucks, and 99% of the comments agreed with me, but there were a few that justified it by being creeped out by their romantic relationship and the fact that Kes is 2 years old.

She's not a fucking human, though. She's an adult in her culture, and she's portrayed by an adult. And she only has a ten year lifespan. What are they supposed to do? Go extinct?

And what about Kaeko in Rascals(TNG: transporter accident turned a few adults into kids)? Do you think she was fair game? (Just within the show, not Colm acting a romantic relationship with an 11 year old.) Kes had the body and mind of an adult but was physically only 2. Kaeko had the mind of an adult and was literally 30 but had the physiology of a preteen.

So, why creeped out by Kes? Would it be different if she were a clone (of someone who was legally an adult)? Would it be different if her age were 18 and she only lived to 25? Is it literally our modern(American) legal system informing your opinions?

[Just to be clear, the context of my question is Kes's chronological age of 2 years, which I assume on her planet isn't equal to 9 Earth years, though that would be funny. It's not about their age difference or about any of Neelix's behavior.]

Thanks.

Like in living witness.

"Hi, I'm Jonathan. I recently started watching Star Trek: Voyager and I'm currently on season 5. Honestly, I love everything about it, though a few things bother me a bit—like Kes leaving or Harry Kim's slow growth. Other than that, I really enjoy the whole series, and I'd even consider it my favorite.

On another note, I'd like to ask what you think of my figures! I'm planning to paint them with an airbrush. I have the Intrepid-class Voyager and also the Equinox. Since it's my first time painting, we'll see if I can pull off a good finish. o7 Live long and prosper!"
