/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.

A parasite clinging onto Starfleet for life and sustenance?

That’s clearly a Lemmy.

That is clearly a Cerritos.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Maybe this is the larva of the Cerritos Warp Moth, named after the ship which discovered it.

Don't forget that the Enterprise encountered it too!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Every century or so, it needs to replenish energy that's apparently readily extracted from warp nacelles. If the 1701 had tagged it like a whale, the Cerritos could see if it was the same Dutchman Graboid.

Memory Alpha does not have a species name listed, so imma call it the Dutchman Graboid.

Zinkel's wingless stellar wasp. (The winged variety are really impressive.)

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

I wonder what it would use the wings for.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Maybe as Solar sails?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Its light-up abdomen and fleshy structure is where it gets its name: "Fleshlight".

Haha... Gary.

It's got a name? It's not just some space bug?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Of course it's got a name. Its name is Jordan. The question is what its species is named.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Honestly pretty fucking racist to assume it doesn't have a name.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Starfleet? Racist? Why you green-blooded, inuman...

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

I posit that someone who is space racist is spacist.

How many people are inside one of that size?!

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

Sounds like a Rick and Morty alien species.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Dr. Who, actually.

Just the tip space bug.

Aeronautical Ommastrephidae Dosidicus gigas

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

Aeronautical things fly in an atmosphere.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Maybe that's why this one is so upset
