FADE IN: 1 EXT. DESERT - DAY 1 Shimmering waves of heat. A flat unforgiving landscape stretches to infinity. A storm of dust gathers on the horizon, small at first, increasing in size as it rolls toward us. Hoofbeats fill the soundtrack.

  • Philosophical Concepts in Star Trek: Using Star Trek As a Curriculum Guide Introducing Fans to the Subject of Philosophy
    Philosophical Concepts in Star Trek: Using Star Trek as a curriculum guide introducing fans to the subject of Philosophy By Victor Grech Abstract Star Trek is a popular cultural phenomenon and each series reinvents cast and plot, providing a unique backdrop with which to study the evolution of philosophy as a curricular subject. This paper identifies philosophical concepts explored through the various series and movies set in the Star Trek universe, which are deontological and invoke Aristotle, Socrates, Plato, Kant and Regan. Since characters care about the consequences of their actions, existentialist concepts arise, as expounded by Kierkegaard and Sartre. Humanism is the guiding principle in the Star Trek Federation, embracing diversity and social justice. Numerous episodes are morality plays set against the exotic backdrop of outer space, rewarding audiences by encouraging them to believe that they and their descendants may mature into the wise personages that constitute the main protagonists of the Federation. This paper will introduce readers to inexplicit key philosophical concepts in hopes of stimulating students to further engage with philosophy as a subject of inherent interest. Introduction Star Trek (ST) has been with us since 1966, with a total of 735 hours of viewing time. Each series necessitates a reinvention of the cast, both human and extraterrestrial, and the resulting intermix provides a unique opportunity to examine the evolution of the philosophies embraced by a diverse set of human and aliens. This paper will review common philosophical themes in ST in hope that such a discussion may stimulate readers to engage with philosophy since this has everyday implications and impinges on our entire way of life.

  • Small Scale Comparison Chart Size Analysis for Federation and Alien Ships of Scale 1 to 2
    Small Scale Comparison Chart Size Analysis for federation and Alien Ships of Scale 1 to 2 This is my Scale estimates of the small ships in the Eaglemoss Small Starships picture (posted on the Wixiban website as of March 2021). The ships below are listed in rough order by horizontal order, starting from the top left of the page (so left-to-right, line-by-line, just like reading a page of text). My baseline estimates of Scales 1 through 3 are roughly based as follows: Ship Length Scale 0 to 19 meters 1 20 to 100 meters 2 100 to 240 meters 3 The largest Scale 2 ship I found in the published STA books is the Maquis Raider (length 68.5 meters) in the Klingon Corebook (p.185) and its length would seem to support these estimations. Ferengi Starship – 22nd C Captain’s Yacht “Calypso” Scale 2 Scale 2 55m in length 23m in length Starfleet Air Tram Type-11 Shuttlecraft Scale 1 Scale 1 12m in length 16m in length B’omar Patrol Ship Baxial (Neelix’s Freighter) Scale 1 Scale 1 14m in length 15m in length That’s a Tiny Freighter… UTS Aeon Even though the Delta Quadrant Scale 1 sourcebook says the Talaxian freighter is 6m in length Scale 2, that book assumes that the Baxial is similar in size to a runabout. This picture Dala’s “Delta Flyer” clearly shows that the Talaxian freighter is Scale 2 barely half the mass of a runabout, if that. 30m in length This plus its length of only 15 meters forces me to conclude that the Talaxian freighter is Romulan Shuttle only Scale 1 (judging just by size alone).

  • Nicole Valeria Companiytsev
    Among Us: Cross-Cultural Encounters in Science Fiction Media by Nicole Valeria Companiytsev A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Anthropology University of Alberta © Nicole Valeria Companiytsev, 2019 ii Abstract Storytelling is an essential part of our experience as human beings. We turn to narrative to explain our own lives – casting ourselves as protagonists, others as secondary characters and antagonists, and the myriad of events that happen to us as a coherent, linear story. Fiction and metaphor are lenses for our collective imagination – a representation of how we see ourselves as a society, and how we see others outside of our culture. In the Western world, nowhere is this view more prominent than in the genre of science fiction. In the fictional interactions between humans and aliens – diplomacy, conflict, oppression, misunderstandings, and cultural sharing – we can see a reflection of our society’s values, its moral prescriptions, and its warnings for the future. Anthropologists, as experts on extracting cultural rules from observation, and picking up on cross-cultural misunderstandings, have long been aware of the human tendency to exaggerate difference between cultures in order to define them as distinct. Thus, an anthropological study of science fiction is crucial for understanding how a society defines itself. In this thesis, I undertake an analysis of the influential science fiction television serial, Star Trek. I seek to answer how the portrayal of specific alien societies in Star Trek inform and reflect the American society’s understanding of both itself and “the other”.

  • Teaching Star Trek As Anthropology
    32 Southern Anthropologist Teaching Star Trek as Anthropology Margaret Williamson Huber U. Mary Washington The original Star Trek television show is a “natural” for teaching anthropology. Like all science fi ction, the show is a refl ection of contemporary concerns--a form of mythology. Beyond this, the original show relied extensively on anthropological theory and ethnography in the construction of its plots. The author’s undergraduate course, described in this paper, aims to make students aware of these and also of the concerns of the nineteen-sixties (Viet Nam, the Cold War, civil rights, Hippies) that motivated many of the episodes. In the process, it illustrates how popular culture texts can be used in the classroom to engage students in ongoing anthropological debates and to demonstrate anthropology’s enduring perspectives and concepts. A good few years ago now, I was taking an introductory anthropology class through a review for their fi nal examination. They were frustrated and so was I. Like many undergraduates they could not fathom “what I wanted,” while I thought what was wanted was perfectly plain. In this stymied state I said that I wished I could be like that scientist in “The Ultimate Computer” who impressed his engrams on the computer he built. Then I’d impress mine on their brains, and we’d all be happy. “I’ve often thought,” I added, “that I’d like to teach a course in the anthropology of Star Trek.” Instantly I had their attention. I had spoken lightly, but they took the idea seriously--and in a year I was, in fact, teaching that very course.
