December

30 Dec 2007

This year's final update brings a couple of new alien ships in the Starship Gallery, especially from the Delta Quadrant.

Furthermore, we have identified re-uses of the Defiant bridge.

27 Dec 2007

A new in-depth article investigates Re-Uses of the New York Streets Set and identifies all buildings. And this is just the essence that I compiled from a huge pile of Jörg's observations. He's been working on that for weeks, as the set appeared in no less than thirteen episodes. Owing to the extent of the article and our limited memory of the episodes, there may be still several mistakes or omissions. Your corrections are appreciated!

26 Dec 2007

Star Trek Deneva - Episode VIII - The Beckoning Darkness is a new episode by John Berkeley. Actually it is not quite as new because I forgot to post it so far.

25 Dec 2007

See a comprehensive article describing The Evolution of the Dominion Emblem from 2372 to 2375. Many thanks to Jörg and Shisma!

24 Dec 2007

Merry Christmas! I have used my spare time surplus for more movie nitpicking, this time scrutinizing my favorite, "Star Trek: First Contact".

23 Dec 2007

Today's batch of new images consists of several 23rd Century and 24th Century Starfleet Uniforms.

22 Dec 2007

Starfleet Museum update: Many new deck plans of 23rd century ships by Allen Rolfes and some 3D views by Jan Seebald. Please follow the signs.

18 Dec 2007

Many more rooms of the Enterprise-E, Defiant and Voyager are pictured in the Gallery.

13 Oct 2007

More Star Trek movie nitpicking, this time in "Star Trek Generations".

11 Dec 2007

Another Gallery update, this time with various interiors of the original Enterprise NCC-1701 and Enterprise-A as well as of the Enterprise-D.

06 Dec 2007

JoAT update with 8 new designs. See the new additions at a glance.

05 Dec 2007

I am adding many scans of rooms, uniforms and other stuff to the Galleries. The first batch consists of various interiors of Deep Space 9.

04 Dec 2007

See how TOS Remastered fixed some problems with re-used matte paintings, but not all of them.

03 Dec 2007

Congratulations to Waxing Moon Design! The art site receives the EAE Award for December 2007.

02 Dec 2007

I have added a couple of pictures from TOS-R season 1 to the Starship Database, such as the unfolded ultraviolet satellite and the Denevan ship, both from TOS: "Operation: Annihilate!". Thanks to Jörg!

 

November

29 Nov 2007

After adding some 200 new entries I have concluded the expansion and restructuring of the Treknology Encyclopedia for the time being. The update would not have been possible without the thorough episode references from Memory Alpha. Yet, definitely many concepts and devices are still missing, at MA as well as at EAS. These will be included one by one.

26 Nov 2007

I have added a couple of notes on Website Promotion.

21 Nov 2007

The update of the Treknology Encyclopedia is nearing its preliminary completion. In the meantime, see three "new" TOS-R spacecrafts in the Starship Database, namely the Eminiar VII hovertrain, the ultraviolet satellite and the Class J. Thanks to Trekmovie.com for the preview!

13 Nov 2007

I have rearranged the Treknology Encyclopedia, now with one page for each letter. This opens the possibility to add many new items and pictures, and it removes the necessity to distinguish important and not-so-important devices. The update will still take a couple of weeks.

07 Nov 2007

In an effort to create a concise Treknology reference, I am adding numerous entries to the Treknology Encyclopedia and particularly to the Supplement. The latter is the place for the more obscure or one-time technology. I have arrived at the letter G, but much of it is still half-baked and unconfirmed. Please have some patience!

06 Nov 2007

And here is a more thrilling new poll: Would you redesign the Enterprise?

05 Nov 2007

Newsfeeds are overrated as it seems. In the recent poll 58% of all voters said that they generally don't read feeds. Among the 12% who have already subscribed to my RSS feed, few are using a sophisticated reader. As a result, I will keep the EAS news short and simple.

04 Nov 2007

Supplement: Jörg found another blooper, 23rd century displays on 24th century replicators.

02 Nov 2007

Find some new Bloopers and Oddities and some new information on In-Jokes, such as on the almost legendary Enterprise-D MSD jokes.

01 Nov 2007

Congratulations to TrekNation, the winner of the EAE Award for November 2007!

 

October

22 Oct 2007

New stuff in the Galleries: I have prepared a number of scans of alien interiors and of rooms on Klingon starships.

16 Oct 2007

Thanks to Leigh who gave the DB Community Award to EAS.

15 Oct 2007

Read about the inconsistencies I spotted in "Star Trek: The Search for Spock".

10 Oct 2007

Dozens of planetary leaders have been abducted. The kidnappers have eschewed a ransom preferring instead to fundamentally alter the Federation's political affairs. Read in Travis Anderson's story Countdown.

08 Oct 2007

Recurring visitors can help me improve the site by answering the Poll question about the EAS newsfeed.

07 Oct 2007

Once again an extensive clean-up of the Links page was necessary.

04 Oct 2007

This month's EAE Award goes to Trek Wallpapers. Congratulations!

03 Oct 2007

My movie nitpicking series continues with "Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan", a fan favorite with some minor flaws.

02 Oct 2007

Once again there are some supplements in the Inconsistencies section, most notably about self-illumination of starships.

 

September

26 Sep 2007

Find a couple of corrections and several supplements, especially pictures, in the recent article about The Saucer Rim on the Galaxy Class.

25 Sep 2007

Looking at The Saucer Rim on the Galaxy Class, we can notice discrepancies between the initial and the later miniatures of the Enterprise-D.

20 Sep 2007

There are some supplements in the Inconsistencies area, such as about wrong evolution concepts and ever-changing ideas of "the hardest substance".

17 Sep 2007

I have added some nitpicking of "Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country", a movie that particularly doesn't get all of the various political interrelations right.

11 Sep 2007

Aliens civilizations are frequently criticized for not having enough cultural diversity. My article on Alien Monocultures in Star Trek tries to put the issue into perspective.

03 Sep 2007

Congratulations to 11001001.info, winner of the EAE Award September 2007!

 

August

28 Aug 2007

Hunted by all sides the SID team faces personal tragedy as well as professional losses. Turning to a former enemy, they recruit an unlikely ally in the new novel Twilight.

27 Aug 2007

From the Bonaventure to the Phoenix. The term "first warp ship" has not always been a constant in Trek. There used to be different names, designs, histories. Our article includes evidence and side views of Cochrane's obscure Bonaventure.

22 Aug 2007

The SID team has one last old foe to deal with. Read in Travis Anderson's latest story Prelude to Dusk.

20 Aug 2007

See a number of new bloopers and other oddities. Thanks to Jörg and to the other contributors!

09 Aug 2007

New Poll about movie theme music.

08 Aug 2007

We have compared the TNG footage in ENT: "These Are The Voyages" with the original scene in TNG: "Ménage ā Troi". This is also some sort of preview of the TNG remastering that is being prepared.

02 Aug 2007

This month's EAE Award goes to Orion Press. Congratulations!

01 Aug 2007

Added a couple of prop re-uses spotted by Jörg, mostly scanners and PADDs, including two more props that could be seen on the Mari homeworld.

 

July

30 Jul 2007

See some high-resolution pictures of the Galor class, of Klingon ships such as the K't'inga and of 21st century vessels. Also, there are superb drawings of the original Enterprise and Enterprise-C by Gus. Note that due to the insane level of detail Gus's original PDFs are not suited for open display, but you can find them in a protected directory if you need them.

27 Jul 2007

The Subspace Comms Network, official message board of EAS, can now be reached at www.subspace-comms.net.

05 Jul 2007

I have removed the directory password protection for the Guestbook in favor of a simple password question embedded in the reply form. Hopefully this will still keep out spammers.

04 Jul 2007

As the little orange icon indicates, an RSS feed is available at EAS. It is just a test run for now, as I have to create and maintain it manually, in addition to the normal HTML update announcements.

03 Jul 2007

The EAE Award July 2007 goes to ZonaTrek.es. Congratulations!
