September 8 is Star Trek Day and there will be a livestreamed special event commencing locally on September 9 at 3 a.m. AEST.
Their schedule covers all of the current TV shows and a tribute to Nichelle Nichols. No mention of the stuck in development hell Star Trek film or other new series previously announced to be in development like Starfleet Academy.
This week highlights from Gamescom including retro alt-history shooter Atomic Heart and digital table-top game Moonbreaker, Claudia Black is back in sci-fi thriller Deus, Toni Collette joins new sci-fi series The Power and what's in and out on streaming services.
We're very slow getting to this one so it's unlikely news to many readers, but the death of Star Trek's Nichelle Nichols which was reported a few days ago can't go without comment.
Many tributes touch on a Whoopi Goldberg quote which speaks to the time she came into prominence.
We’re back! This week the third and last series of Picard, a new season of For All Mankind announced, Stargate’s 25th anniversary, farewell to a sci-fi icon and a look ahead to this year’s Sydney Science Fiction Film Festival.
After saying "Fuck Star Wars. But Not Mark Hamill," and that Gene Roddenberry would be "turning in his grave" at some of the new Star Trek series, William Shatner had kinder words for Paul Wesley who now plays Kirk in Strange New Worlds.
