/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.

The same way they do now..... They don't!

Well yeah, but I mean within the idea of astrology. It's kind of an interesting question if you think about it. Even within our own solar system... if we become a multiplanetary society and astrology still exists, how is it determined? Do you still decide things based on where other planets are in relation to Earth?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Or yourself. Like Mercury is in retrograde bc you turned left.

Really it illustrates how ludicrous the whole idea of astrology is.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

The fact that twins exist, and have different lives, shows how ludicrous it is.

I've been working on a scifi fantasy story idea about pagans on Mars for years. I love the idea of a colonized mars, and pagans with a mars centric religion

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I like that idea. A similar thing I've wondered is about Muslims on another planet. They are supposed to face Mecca when they pray. Which direction does a Muslim on Mars (or even the moon) face?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I know this one!

So, Muslims on the ISS need to face earth when not possible to determine the location of, or if moving too quickly to reasonably face, mecca. On the moon or another planet, it would presumably be the same. They face earth

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Would that mean they might have to lie on their backs?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Somehow I don't think so... Lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

I'm sure the location of Venus, and that Mars is in retrograde or not (relative to Earth), have a huge effect on the destiny of Klingons born on Qo'noS
