Claude Sonnet 4.0 describes the image as: "This appears to be a scene set aboard a spacecraft, likely the Liberator, with its characteristic sterile, futuristic interior visible in the background. The setting shows what appears to be a corridor or common area of the ship. Multiple crew members are present in the scene, wearing the typical earth-toned, practical clothing characteristic of the series. The lighting and production values are typical of late 1970s British science fiction television.…

Series A, Episode 10 - Breakdown
AVON: Right. Bring it directly over the skull. No, that won't do. You'll have to use the radio sensor. Good, that's much better. Yes, there it is. There's the limiter implant, you can see it quite clearly. Give me the side view. Good. Yes, it's in the sub four section all right. Now let's take a look at the limiter itself. Close focus, slowly.
JENNA: Well, there's nothing wrong with the connectors.

Claude Sonnet 4.0 describes the image as: "This appears to be a scene set aboard the Liberator spacecraft, showing four crew members gathered around what looks like a control console or computer terminal. The setting has the characteristic white and metallic interior design of the ship's flight deck or computer room. The group appears to be engaged in examining something on the screen or discussing mission-critical information, which was typical of scenes where the crew would analyze data, plan…

The ideas that finally bubbled up to the surface in The Point of No Return last night have been festering in the back of my brain for months. Because, although it's a bit inchoate, it's only saying out loud what most of us already know.
The job now is no longer to turn the ship around. We don't have the wheel, and those who do will not listen.
The task now is to build lifeboats. To build resilient spaces in which fragments of humanity can survive.

The Point of No Return
I can't stop climate change by myself. I can't create a sustainable future for my village by myself. To do either of these things, everyone else needs to work together. But badgering people, being frustrated with people, being angry with people (and yes, I am angry — very angry — with people I know, and like, and respect, very much) doesn't motivate them to work together. My very frustration, my very sense of urgency, makes me a liability. I should stop.

Content warning: Strange New Worlds S3

Watched season three of Strange New Worlds and it was pretty great.
The Enemy Mine episode with the pilot and the Gorn stranded by the Metrons was a nice bit of retcon.
Chronologically the first holodeck episode ever (Or did Enterprise do one? I forget), and the safeties fail and nearly kill everyone aboard the ship. Tech eh? The the humans must pursue it even if it kills them. I'm not all that keen on holodeck episodes. It always has this false sense of danger where they have some fake reason to have danger so it's not all a game.
Everyone's-a-vulcan episode was stupid and funny. Star Fleet is so casual with the humanity of it's soldiers.
Nurse Chapel is still amazing even though her hair is longer and, unusually, I preferred it short.
Knowing the future in a prequel makes things quite poignant. Kirk and Spock's first handshake. Their first mindmeld. Oh, the adventures they shall have. Playing with that by making Pike know his own future too is nice meta level scripting game.

Series A, Episode 12 - Deliverance
ENSOR: I'm on three-quarter boost as it is. She's not responding! I'm going to maximum. It's all right. It's all right. She's slowing. Compensators beginning to hold. [Ship starts to steady.] Come on, come on, that's my beauty. That's...come on. Pull us back, pull us back. All right, she's coming back. We're all right.
MARYATT: Don't do that too often, will you? I'm a very nervous passenger.

Claude Sonnet 4.0 describes the image as: "I can see two men in what appears to be the interior of a spacecraft or control room setting. They're positioned near what looks like control panels or technical equipment, with some kind of display screen visible showing a green geometric shape. The lighting is dramatic and moody, typical of science fiction television production from this era. The men are wearing what appears to be futuristic or military-style clothing. The setting suggests they're li…

Series C, Episode 04 - Dawn of the Gods
CALIPH: Welcome to Krandor, my friends. An artificial planet, which is the palace of the Lord Thaarn, Master of the Universe. I am the Caliph of Krandor. Among other things, it is my duty as the Lord Thaarn's chief executive, to negotiate a purchase price for your ship. We, uh, usually use this for rounding up runaway slaves. Oh, quite inappropriate in this instance, but it was nearest at the time. I do hope you understand.
TARRANT: We…

Claude Sonnet 4.0 describes the image as: "I can see this is a dramatic scene set against a stark black background, creating a theatrical, minimalist atmosphere. The figure is wearing an elegant period costume consisting of a dark jacket or coat paired with light-colored trousers, suggesting a formal or aristocratic character. The costume design has a historical feel, possibly 17th or 18th century inspired, with what appears to be decorative elements on the clothing. The dramatic lighting and s…

Series C, Episode 03 - Volcano
VILA: Oh, yes, Tarrant says he was a space captain, but then he says a lot of things, and you don't have to believe it all, do you?
AVON: I'd be more inclined to believe that he was a captain than that you could have been.

C.A. TWO: Unlike the youngsters. So what do we do?
C.A. ONE: Evacuation.
FRANTON: It's probably Auron's only chance now.

FRANTON: Off shift, unfortunately.
