You may have noticed it’s been a bit quiet around these parts, as the last few weeks have moved beyond Star Trek: Picard and into the long, quiet season of social distancing, home quarantine, video chats and general uncertainty about what’s coming next for this crazy world.
(We certainly hope you are all doing as well as can be, but for those of you who have faced challenges and loss in the last few months, please know our thoughts are with you!)
While there’s been a mild bubbling of discussion about the status of Star Trek: Discovery‘s on-the-distant-horizon third season, the truth is that we really don’t know how long it will be until the challenging post-production processes needed to complete the next set of episodes will be finalized, as everyone involved with the show is now working from home — a hurdle that has forced the series to drop from warp speed to impulse power behind the scenes.
As a timeline for the arrival of that series — along with the sometime-in-2020 debut of Star Trek: Lower Decks — remains a question mark, we’ve turned our attention to another major project… one that we’ve been hearing about from many of you for years.
Before we expanded into full-time Star Trek news coverage, product reviews, convention reporting, interviews, and all that other stuff you’ve come to know us for, you knew us best as “that site with all the Star Trek images.” (We know that lots of you still think of us that way, even as our focus and reach has widened over the last decade!)
Like many of you, we’ve taken advantage of all these weeks at home to get back to basics. With that in mind, prepare yourself for The Spring (and Summer) of Star Trek Screencaps!
Starting this month, we’re expanding our Star Trek Blu-ray galleries in a big way, as we not only close out the final season of The Next Generation (we know, we know!), but we’ll be rolling out new Blu-ray screencaps from all four seasons of Star Trek: Enterprise, images of all the high-definition remastered footage from the 2019 Deep Space Nine documentary…
…and we’ll be charting a new course across the mycelial network to launch our long-awaited Star Trek: Discovery episodic galleries as well, starting with a trip back to “The Vulcan Hello.”
As we journey ahead, we’ll still keep you up to date with the latest news on the current Star Trek productions, reviews of the new books coming out over the next few months, and all the details on the Star Trek: Short Treks Blu-ray release hitting stores in June — and we might have a few surprises for our image gallery expansions along the way.
Keep your sensors locked right here for news on every new Star Trek image gallery as they beam down in 2020 — and stay safe, wherever you might be!
