Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Flyby: the interplanetary odyssey of Voyager 2 (1987) by Joel Davis is a fascinating read about the behind the scenes to get things to work. Back then it was an amazing feat both in the results it gave and how they did it despite lots of problems. That we're still seeing such miracles of science is incredible.
