#StarTrek
#ForFansByFans
On October 14, 1998, Star Trek: Voyager launched its fifth season with the haunting and atmospheric Season 5, Episode 1 – “Night.” The image plunges us straight into the eerie aesthetic of the episode, spotlighting a deeply unsettling alien figure. Bathed in low blue and amber lighting, the character’s face is almost completely obscured by a grotesque, organic carapace — a glistening black mass covered in knotted ridges, pustules, and fibrous veins that cling to every contour. Only the eyes remain starkly visible, peering out from the living armor with a gaze that is both pained and piercing. This nightmarish visage belongs to one of the Malon’s victims, visually conveying the environmental horrors explored in this episode’s core themes. The text reads: “ON THIS DAY – 14 OCT 1998 – NIGHT,” with episode info below: “SEASON 5, EPISODE 1 – STAR TREK: VOYAGER.” The CloneStar Podcast emblem anchors the lower corner. This image, at once visually mesmerizing and disturbing, perfectly reflects Voyager’s journey into a literal and metaphorical void — a story where toxic guilt, isolation, and ecological catastrophe loom large in the shadows.

#StarTrek
#ForFansByFans
On October 14, 1991, Star Trek: The Next Generation delivered awe and existential dread in equal measure with Season 5, Episode 4 – “Silicon Avatar.” Dominating the frame is the crystalline terror itself — the Crystalline Entity — an alien lifeform of dazzling, jagged beauty and overwhelming destructive power. Its complex, fractal-like branches radiate a cold, alien elegance, glowing with inner light as if pulsing with enigmatic intent. Against a stark blue backdrop, it resembles both a cosmic snowflake and an unholy tree of death, perfectly capturing its dual nature as a work of art and a harbinger of annihilation. The text reads: “ON THIS DAY – 14 OCT 1991 – SILICON AVATAR,” with the series tag below: “SEASON 5, EPISODE 4 – STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION.” The CloneStar Podcast insignia anchors the bottom left. This haunting image encapsulates the episode’s themes of grief, vengeance, and the limits of understanding — a visual metaphor for the fragility of life in a universe filled with unknowable wonders. On October 14, 1996, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine brought a glorious clash of love, honor, and absurdity in Season 5, Episode 3 – “Looking for par’Mach in All the Wrong Places.” In this delightfully chaotic scene, Quark — ever the unlikely romantic — stands clad in full Klingon armor, wielding a massive bat’leth with an expression of nervous determination. His eyes are wide, his stance awkward, yet he holds the blade as if he's about to dive headfirst into battle… or maybe just into heartbreak. Facing him (seen only from behind) is Grilka, the fierce Klingon woman at the center of his affections, her wild, red hair and imposing frame a striking contrast to the Ferengi’s fragile bravado. The text on the image reads: “ON THIS DAY – 14 OCT 1996 – LOOKING FOR PAR’MACH IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES,” and below: “SEASON 5, EPISODE 3 – STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE,” with the CloneStar Podcast logo anchoring the layout. This moment captures the perfect comedic fusion of Ferengi scheming and Klingon passion — a bizarre but heartfelt dance of culture clash and unlikely romance. On October 14, 1998, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine delivered an episode full of emotional gravity and identity exploration in Season 7, Episode 3 – “Afterimage.” This contemplative scene captures a moment of quiet tension and emerging trust between two complex characters. To the left, we see Ezri Dax, newly joined and grappling with the weight of past lives. Her expression is a mixture of uncertainty and empathy as she glances sideways toward the figure beside her. That figure — Garak, the ever-enigmatic Cardassian — stares upward, his face stoic and bathed in the warm, reddish glow of the rocky cliffs behind them. His rigid posture and unreadable gaze contrast Ezri’s openness, yet there's an unspoken connection forming. The light catches the intricate ridges of his face, while Ezri’s Trill markings remain soft and humanizing. The image text reads: “ON THIS DAY – 14 OCT 1998 – AFTERIMAGE,” and beneath: “SEASON 7, EPISODE 3 – STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE.” The CloneStar Podcast insignia rests proudly in the lower left. This tender, introspective shot speaks to transformation, trauma, and the quiet beginnings of healing — wrapped in the bold hues of DS9’s final season.

99: VOY - Tinker Tailor Doctor Spy
22: LD - Crisis Point 2: Paradoxus

#StarTrek
#ForFansByFans
An unforgettable moment from Star Trek: Voyager, Season 6, Episode 4, titled “Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy,” which aired on October 13, 1999. The image captures the EMH (Emergency Medical Hologram) standing confidently in his maroon and black Starfleet uniform, basking in an imaginary sense of command. His expression is proud and contemplative, his chin slightly raised as if he's just delivered an inspiring monologue or commanded the bridge with effortless authority. The lighting is dim, almost theatrical, hinting that this might be one of his many vivid daydreams rather than reality—an ongoing theme of this hilarious and cleverly subversive episode. In the background, the bridge of the U.S.S. Voyager glows softly with cool blues and purples, reinforcing the dreamlike quality of the moment. Text on the LCARS-style overlay reads: “ON THIS DAY – 13 OCT 1999 – TINKER TENOR DOCTOR SPY,” and at the bottom: “SEASON 6, EPISODE 4 – STAR TREK: VOYAGER.” The CloneStar Podcast logo anchors the design in the lower left. This image radiates both humor and ambition—the Doctor, always yearning to be more than his programming, is in peak form here. Buckle up for cinematic mayhem in Star Trek: Lower Decks, Season 3, Episode 8 — “Crisis Point 2: Paradoxus,” which premiered on October 13, 2022! This electrifying frame captures Brad Boimler standing boldly on the bridge, bathed in dramatic red alert lighting. His stance is firm, hands on hips, chin slightly raised — a perfect parody of the classic "hero shot" seen in blockbuster space operas. His eyes are wide with a mix of confusion, intensity, and perhaps the realization that he's in a holodeck movie sequel — a sequel he didn't even write. Behind him, fellow ensigns man their stations amidst a sea of red hues and looming narrative stakes. The exaggerated lighting and tension-packed posture playfully mirror the over-the-top dramatics of big-screen Star Trek films, which this episode hilariously lampoons. Overlay text reads: “ON THIS DAY – 13 OCT 2022 – 'CRISIS POINT 2: PARADOXUS,'” with episode info below: “SEASON 3, EPISODE 8 – STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS.” The CloneStar Podcast emblem adorns the lower left corner, boldly tying the scene into franchise celebration. This moment is Boimler at his most cinematically self-aware — and it's glorious.

66: TOS - Mudd’s Women
67: TOS - The Apple
73: TAS - The Survivor

#StarTrek
#ForFansByFans
A dazzling, character-focused scene from Star Trek: The Original Series, Season 1, Episode 3, “Mudd’s Women,” which first aired on October 13, 1966. At the center of the image stands the flamboyant and mustachioed Harcourt Fenton Mudd, wearing an orange, billowing shirt and wide belt, his arms draped around three glamorous women. Each woman dons a glittering, form-fitting dress in bold, vibrant colors—green, lavender, and fuchsia—designed to exude allure. Their hair is styled in perfectly sculpted 1960s fashion, with the blonde women sporting elegant updos and the brunette in a sleek, flowing look. The women gaze at Mudd with uncertainty, while he looks back with a mix of charm and smug calculation. Behind them, a red-shirted crew member watches from the shadows, adding a hint of Starfleet tension to the otherwise theatrical moment. The bright, minimalist lighting and colorful costuming embody the aesthetic boldness of early TOS. The LCARS-style graphic declares: “ON THIS DAY – 13 OCT 1966 – MUDD’S WOMEN,” followed by “SEASON 1, EPISODE 3 – STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES.” The CloneStar Podcast emblem anchors the bottom left, marking the debut of one of Star Trek’s most infamous rogues—and his controversial companions. A vibrant and surreal image from Star Trek: The Original Series, Season 2, Episode 9, “The Apple,” which originally aired on October 13, 1967. This iconic scene takes place on the planet Gamma Trianguli VI, showcasing the primitive inhabitants—Vaalians—gathered around the ominous stone entrance of their godlike computer, Vaal. The structure is shaped like a menacing reptilian face, complete with glowing green eyes and jagged teeth forming the doorway. The Vaalians, with their pale blonde hair, floral headbands, and minimal clothing (white skirts and leis), stand reverently before the entrance, caught between innocence and oppression. The eerie red sky and lush greenery enhance the otherworldly atmosphere of the scene, highlighting TOS’s theatrical set design and allegorical storytelling. The LCARS-style overlay states: “ON THIS DAY – 13 OCT 1967 – THE APPLE,” and below reads: “SEASON 2, EPISODE 9 – STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES.” The CloneStar Podcast logo in the lower-left corner commemorates this bold episode, a thought-provoking tale about free will, obedience, and the cost of paradise. A bold, stylized still from Star Trek: The Animated Series, Season 1, Episode 6, “The Survivor,” which aired on October 13, 1973. At the center stands a determined-looking man with a golden mustache, sharply parted brown hair, and distinctive sideburns. Dressed in a bright gold Starfleet uniform with a white ascot-style undershirt, he holds his arms crossed over his chest in a commanding and defiant “X” gesture. His expression is one of intense resolve, brows furrowed, lips tight—a pose echoing a vow or warning. Behind him, a backdrop of intersecting multicolored energy lines adds a vibrant, surreal energy unique to the limited animation style of the era. The color palette is vivid and primary-toned, hallmark traits of the series' 1970s design. The retro LCARS-style frame labels the moment: “ON THIS DAY – 13 OCT 1973 – THE SURVIVOR,” with the info bar below reading: “SEASON 1, EPISODE 6 – STAR TREK: THE ANIMATED SERIES.” The CloneStar Podcast insignia marks the corner. A classic scene from the franchise’s foray into Saturday morning animation—this episode blends Starfleet values, identity deception, and 1970s charm.

#StarTrek
#ForFansByFans
A visually striking and heartfelt moment from Star Trek: The Animated Series, Season 2, Episode 6, “The Counter-Clock Incident,” originally aired on October 12, 1974. Featured prominently in this elegant animated frame is a graceful older woman with distinguished silver hair styled in sweeping waves. Her dignified presence is accentuated by her classic lavender and rose-trimmed outfit, golden hoop earrings, and bold red lipstick. She holds a vivid, exotic alien flower—a striking bloom in shades of magenta, pink, and yellow, its curling petals and antenna-like filaments adding a touch of wonder and beauty to the scene. The background shows a sleek, angular console of the Enterprise, grounding the image firmly in Federation technology. This episode introduces the brilliant and wise Sarah April, former chief medical officer aboard the Enterprise, as the crew finds themselves in a universe where time runs backward. The LCARS-themed graphic reads: “ON THIS DAY – 12 OCT 1974 – THE COUNTER-CLOCK INCIDENT,” with the episode label below: “SEASON 2, EPISODE 6 – STAR TREK: THE ANIMATED SERIES.” At the bottom left corner is the CloneStar Podcast logo, celebrating this milestone moment in Trek animation history and the poetic exploration of aging, identity, and legacy in reverse time. A nostalgic and emotionally resonant moment from Star Trek: The Next Generation, Season 6, Episode 4, “Relics,” originally aired on October 12, 1992. Center stage is Montgomery “Scotty” Scott, the legendary chief engineer of the original Enterprise, standing tall and dignified in a modern Starfleet uniform variant—white tunic with a black vest and the Starfleet insignia pinned on his chest. His expression is a complex mix of pride, loss, and reflection, as he stands in the familiar glow of the holodeck grid—its yellow lines over black suggesting the digital simulation environment around him. Behind him stands Captain Jean-Luc Picard, composed and respectful, silently acknowledging the legacy of the man before him. This episode marks a powerful generational bridge between The Original Series and The Next Generation, bringing heartfelt homage to Starfleet’s past. The LCARS frame on the left includes: “ON THIS DAY – 12 OCT 1992 – RELICS,” followed by the episode info: “SEASON 6, EPISODE 4 – STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION.” The CloneStar Podcast insignia rests in the bottom corner, commemorating this iconic reunion and tribute to the enduring legacy of Trek’s beloved “miracle worker.” A striking and dramatic moment from Star Trek: The Next Generation, Season 1, Episode 4, “Code of Honor,” which aired on October 12, 1987. In this tense diplomatic scene aboard the Enterprise, three members of the Ligonian delegation stand poised with solemn intensity. At the forefront is the leader, dressed in a long, sleeveless, open-front robe made of shimmering black fabric with triangular silver patterns, accentuated by a large red pendant. His head is adorned with a matching turban, and his serious expression underscores the weight of the ceremonial visit. Flanking him are two attendants in gray and silver garments, also wearing decorative headdresses and holding staffs, evoking a stylized, ritualistic aesthetic. Behind them, the ship's interior—clean, symmetrical, and bathed in soft lighting—emphasizes the formality of the encounter. The moment is theatrical and visually bold, reflecting the early TNG era’s unique approach to diplomacy and culture. Along the left-hand side, the LCARS interface displays the text: “ON THIS DAY – 12 OCT 1987 – CODE OF HONOR,” with the episode metadata beneath: “SEASON 1, EPISODE 4 – STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION.” The CloneStar Podcast logo sits in the corner, marking the date this memorable—and controversial—episode made its debut in Trek history. A charming and bizarre moment from Star Trek: Lower Decks, Season 4, Episode 7, “A Few Badgeys More,” which premiered on October 12, 2023. In this brightly lit and comedically intense scene, Rutherford, dressed in a sleek white and teal EVA suit, kneels with a hopeful smile, grasping the hand of Badgey—the rogue, sentient, golden Starfleet delta-shaped hologram with a face and legs. Badgey is grinning wide, radiating a mix of cheer and potential menace. The two shake hands in front of a massive glowing red reactor core, suggesting an uneasy truce or strange alliance. The absurdity of the situation—trusting a homicidal holographic badge—captures Lower Decks’ signature blend of irreverence, heart, and chaos. Stylized with bold colors and exaggerated expressions, the scene crackles with comedic tension and unexpected warmth. On the left, the LCARS-style sidebar reads: “ON THIS DAY – 12 OCT 2023 – A FEW BADGEYS MORE,” with the episode's credentials below: “SEASON 4, EPISODE 7 – STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS.” The CloneStar Podcast logo anchors the frame, commemorating this episode where even the most murderous AI can get a second chance... maybe.

68: TOS - And The Children Shall Lead
93: TNG - Gambit, Part I
00: VOY - Imperfection

#StarTrek
#ForFansByFans
A powerful and emotional moment from Star Trek: The Original Series, Season 3, Episode 5, “And the Children Shall Lead,” which first aired on October 11, 1968. At the heart of the image, Captain James T. Kirk (in his iconic gold Starfleet tunic) crouches protectively beside a tear-streaked young girl in a floral dress. His expression is focused and alert, filled with concern and resolve. Surrounding them are several other children, each visibly distraught, their faces marked with sorrow and confusion. The red railings and flashing consoles of the Enterprise bridge form the backdrop, grounding the scene aboard the familiar starship. A crew member in science blue works at a station in the background, facing away. The children's brightly colored 1960s costumes—striped shirts, plaid patterns—contrast with the high-tech surroundings, adding to the unsettling atmosphere of innocence disrupted. The tension is palpable: these are not just lost children, but central figures in a mysterious and dangerous force. Overlaid text in sleek LCARS style reads: “ON THIS DAY – 11 OCT 1968 – AND THE CHILDREN SHALL LEAD,” and below it, “SEASON 3, EPISODE 5 – STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES.” The CloneStar Podcast badge anchors the lower-left corner, honoring this haunting entry in Trek lore. A tense and mysterious scene from Star Trek: The Next Generation, Season 7, Episode 4, “Gambit, Part I,” which premiered on October 11, 1993. The focus is on a striking alien figure—a long-haired woman with a ridged forehead and a fierce, intelligent expression. Her voluminous, platinum-blonde hair cascades over her leather-like, quilted armor that suggests a rugged, nomadic life beyond Federation norms. Her look is cautious yet commanding, clearly someone with secrets and power. The soft, shadowed lighting gives the setting a clandestine feel, as if the conversation taking place is dangerous and cloaked in deception. This episode marks the beginning of a two-part saga involving undercover missions, mercenaries, and ancient Vulcan artifacts. The image is bordered with the familiar LCARS interface, boldly displaying: “ON THIS DAY – 11 OCT 1993 – GAMBIT, PART I,” along with “SEASON 7, EPISODE 4 – STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION.” The CloneStar Podcast insignia anchors the lower-left corner, commemorating this thrilling detour into the galactic underworld of TNG. A critical and emotionally charged moment from Star Trek: Voyager, Season 7, Episode 2, “Imperfection,” which aired on October 11, 2000. In the center of Voyager’s gleaming sickbay, the EMH (Emergency Medical Hologram), clad in his teal-and-black Starfleet medical uniform, focuses intently as he holds up a glowing green cortical node—delicate and vital. His expression is filled with concern and determination. In the foreground, Seven of Nine lies motionless on a biobed, her platinum-blonde hair framing her face, while a medical scanner hovers over her exposed Borg implant, casting a blue diagnostic light across her temple. The stakes are high; her life hangs in the balance. In the background, another crew member assists, while Captain Janeway looks on anxiously from a distance. The scene hums with urgency and technological sophistication, the lighting stark and clinical—perfectly suited to the sterile, high-stakes atmosphere of the ship’s medical bay. Along the left-hand side, the iconic LCARS design proudly announces: “ON THIS DAY – 11 OCT 2000 – IMPERFECTION.” Below it, the details: “SEASON 7, EPISODE 2 – STAR TREK: VOYAGER.” The CloneStar Podcast logo grounds the corner, honoring this emotionally powerful episode where humanity, sacrifice, and survival collide.
