Why I love the Star Trek universe

 Hello! I am a huge fan of Star Trek I have yet to watch the original series (Star Trek Enterprise), I know I know but I am not a fan of Shatner's dramatics. So far I have seen Star Trek The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager. My favorite so far is DS-9 mainly because of Captain Sisko. This is my suggestion if you want to see it in Chronological order

Star Trek chronological order (films listed in italics)

  1. Star Trek: Enterprise (Year: 2151-2161)
  2. Star Trek: Discovery seasons 1-2 (Year: 2255)
  3. Star Trek: The Original Series (Year: 2265-2269)
  4. Star Trek: The Animated Series (Year: 2269-2270)
  5. The first six Star Trek films (Year: 2273-2293)
  6. Star Trek: The Next Generation (Year: 2364-2370)
  7. Star Trek films 7-10: Generations up to Nemesis (Year: 2293-2379)
  8. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (Year: 2369-2375)
  9. Star Trek: Voyager (Year: 2371-2378)
  10. Star Trek: Picard (Year: 2399)
The universe teaches us how to get along with different species, treat women with respect, how to use technology to help all of human kind, and how to be a good person. All the captains go through different trails and tribulations, they are not perfect, many have made many mistakes and had to make difficult decisions but they stayed true to the principle of human kindness and be an example to difficult alien species (such as Jem Hadar and changelings). The teachings of it go deep into your soul, most people recognize it and call us trekkies, I am proud to be a trekkie and display what a true Federation citizen would do. Ideally I would like to be the ship's counselor, or language assistant, or just be a manager on Riza, everyone has a place in the federation, even the rebels, the warring Klingons, the cunning Romulans, the horrid Cardassians, the religious Bajorans, the scary Borg, all play a different role to contribute to the universe.It would be my dream to see people united the way Star Trek portrays and wars, famine, poverty be a thing of the past. One day we shall see our utopia, but remember what we consider utopia might be hell for others.
