Good Morning!

New pinned post for all my new followers!

I'm a Military Historian very interested in space, politics, humor, war, and art.

I've been obsessed with the design of fictional spacecraft since I can remember and I post daily about a lesser-known ship and artist, usually from Star Trek.

James Horner gives us a beautiful arrangement of Spock’s theme as the Bird of Prey lands in Star Trek 3.

donny wants peace in our time so his buddies can go recreate the 90's and plunder Russia all over again

famously that process did not yield a stable and reliable Russian state
It’s clear that the primary interest of the US in “peace negotiations” is to create opportunities for Trump, Witkoff, their family members, business partners and cronies to make billions from business deals with Russia, and Ukraine is just the annoying nuisance in the way.

The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

A brief but thoughtful reflection on art, imagination, creativity, human effort and AI-generated work, using #StarTrek to explore some of the ideas. Fascinating. 🖖 youtu.be/5RFwX1g9bq8?...

Beta Starship Spotlight
Nathan Kaiser-Class Destroyer Escort

A "destroyer escort" is a class of naval vessel really only found during WW2 when large numbers of small, fast warships were needed to get Allied convoys across the North Atlantic.

I imagine this ship doing the same for Federation ships!

Star Trek III destroyed one Enterprise, but gave us a generous helping of new ships (plus a spacedock) to compensate. The Bird of Prey and Excelsior went on to become fan favourites, but one is not so universally loved.
