Who's On First? Starfleet's First Officers
Red Alert! Who's on first base? 20th century comic duo Abbott and Costello may have never warped on a Starfleet starship - although they did go to Mars - but their historically popular comedy bit, 'Who's On First?', evokes a responsible officer rank which doesn't always get deserved attention nor respect.

The Secret Life Of Trek Pets
Like your pets? Of course you do - don't we all? Will we still love our pets in the far flung future? Data loved his pet cat.

Pets are such a big part of most everyone's lives, and they're going to be found in the future. Check out my new TrekNews article on The Secret Life of Trek Pets.

Raunchy Sex Club or Posh Resort?
Captain Picard is overworked. He needs some time to himself - a little rest and relaxation. So he does what any Starfleet professional would do. He goes to vacation at the fabled Planet of Risa. The world is known for its warm, welcoming hospitality - and for having a well earned reputation as a bit of a raunchy sex club.
Check out my article where we find Picard in paradise.

Spock, I Am Your Father
Trekkies know Vulcans. Trekkies know Spock. If there's one other Vulcan they know better, it's Sarek - or Spock's Dad. Yeah, there was Tuvok, in Voyager, but well you know, he wasn't a respected Vulcan ambassador. Star Trek: Discovery aims to get us all acquainted with Spock's dear old dad once again.

Snacks of The Stars
Good food and essential snacking isn't just something we leave behind on planet Earth. When we finally travel out to play and work among the awesome majesty of the stars, we'll need some good old fashioned sustenance. Star Trek and Star Wars has had some pretty nifty ways to tie on the old feedbag. Klingon Gagh? Vulcan Plomeek Soup? Yummy!

Artificial Intelligence - The Sci-Fi Version
Scientists tell us - A.I. is coming to our world. We keep talking about A.I. - artificial intelligence. We're not there yet. Despite major advances in 'machine learning' or expert systems, computers are still pretty dumb. What will happen when A.I. becomes a reality, and the machines start talking back to us and make sense?
