However, is interrupted by two operatives from the as Vince’s motivations become clearer, Peter Dept. of Temporal Investigations. A trained is faced with a moral dilemma - do his duty fighter, he kills one of the operatives and and save the timeline, or risk it all for a steals her mobile temporal transporter to chance to be with his fiancée again. evade capture. Disillusioned and on the run, he uses the device to travel back in time to Or, to put it in a different way, Peter needs to save his sister and create a new future where ask himself if the needs of the many really he is in control. This presents a serious threat outweigh the needs of the few – or the one? to the timeline; the future of Starfleet, the Federation - basically all life – now hangs in the balance. SHOW POTENTIAL Although at its core the TV series will be a buddy-cop Cochrane never cracked warp drive, drama featuring a slow burn love interest between the Klingons/Romulans/Borg/Ferengi take over, and so on. two odd couple characters, the show is much more This could all fit within the new Kelvin direction – than that. There is tremendous potential here to there are no barriers here to what can be achieved. explore periods of history that have only been hinted at so far within the Star Trek universe, but which have Above all though, this will not be Star Trek as we know never been tackled in any substantive way, e.g., the it. There are no captains here to save the day, no origins of the Augments (1950’s Cold War era), the photon torpedoes to be launched, no Scotty to beam Eugenic Wars, the rise & fall of Khan, World War 3, them out at the last second…this is a battle of wits, a etc,. There is an opportunity here to explore what story of two unsung heroes whose accomplishments humanity was like during this period, and how we will never be known. And although they are both turned it around – against the odds - to create the flawed in their own way, and the chances of success future utopia that is the Federation. are low - they carry the torch of hope with them because in its essence, that is what Star Trek is about. Given the time travel element, there is also the It is a story of hope…and this is something we all need potential to showcase what the alternative of this now more than ever. perfect future could look like… not just the ‘mirror universe’, but other futures in which, for instance, Khan stayed in power, WW3 never ended, Zefram HANNAH & PETER HANNAH TENNET (31), Betazoid/El-Aurian. DTI agent. Beautiful, quirky, colourful…but don’t let her looks fool you! She is a tough-as-nails, by the book agent that never backs down from a challenge. Underestimated most of her life, she has had to fight hard to get where she is. This dedication to duty has made her an outsider but she doesn’t care – the mission always comes first! PETER MARS (34), Human. Former Section 31 operative. Peter is a charismatic, hard-hitting rogue with a heart of gold (but hidden under many layers!). Once a dedicated and loyal follower to the cause, he lost his way after the death of his fiancé and the closure of Section 31. Normally found these days passed out under a bar, Peter is in desperate need for something - or someone - to bring purpose back into his life VINCE & SARAH VINCE MACRON (45), Human. Former high ranking Section 31 operative. Although it’s probably fair to say that Vince was never quite balanced to begin with, it was the sudden death of his sister that really pushed him over the edge. Now, he is on a personal mission to bring her back and redo the wrongs against him…or watch it all burn in the process. SARAH MACRON (33), Human. Former Section 31 operative. The best way to describe Sarah? Would “mad, bad, and dangerous to know” be too much? Probably not! Driven, secretive, stunning, Sarah is the type of woman that can seduce you with a smile - and cut you down with a look. She had her world turned upside down once…now she is determined to never let that happen again. PILOT The stage is set. The rifle is aimed. Vince has This is bad - real bad, and Hannah knows it.

He reminds himself of what they him in. But this will not be an easy did. The Federation betrayed him, took away relationship. While not as far gone as Vince, everything he held dear. They killed Sarah. Peter is unpredictable and certainly no Time to focus. He looks down the scope. This friend of the Federation - but he’s all she’s is the right move – they must pay for their got - and she’ll have to make it work sins…. somehow. But it could already be too late. In the blink of an eye, the world changes This is how we kickoff season one. A lone around them. The year is correct but man, broken with grief, attempting to right everything else is different – the Federation the wrongs against him.

    UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DO PARANÁ Extrahumanidade em Star Trek: Reflexões de Antropologia Especulativa Willian Perpétuo Busch Extrahumanidade em Star Trek: Reflexões de Antropologia Especulativa Willian Perpétuo Busch1 Orientador: Prof. Dr. Miguel Carid Naveira CURITIBA 2015 1 Mestrando (2014-) em Antropologia Social pela Universidade Federal do Paraná. Graduado em Filosofia (2010-2013)pela Universidade Federal do Paraná. ESPECULAÇÕES SOBRE FICÇÃO . SINGH, UM FANTASMA DO PASSADO. GUERRA EXTRAHUMANA . AUGMENTS LEITORES DE ZARATUSTRA . EQUIVOCAÇÕES REFERÊNCIAS A diferenciação é a criatura. Ela é distinta. Diferenciação é sua natureza, por isso ela também diferencia. Por isso o ser humano diferencia, pois, sua natureza é diferenciação. ~Carl Gustav Jung, Liber Novus. 1. ESPECULAÇÕES SOBRE FICÇÃO Estabelecer a ficção científica (Science Fiction) como objeto de estudo da Antropologia Especulativa demanda uma reflexão das duas palavras: ficção e ciência. Desse modo, a dúvida que se elabora é a seguinte: o que compõe a ficção científica? Ficção advém do verbo latino fingo, que em sua acepção mais básica está associado com forma, molde e estilo. No grego, isso aparece como τεῖχος, o trabalho com a terra que produz muros e fortifica a cidade (BEEKES, 2010, p. 1459). Em Heródoto, τεῖχος é a ação tomada pelos administradores jônicos ao fortificar suas cidades e resistir ao poder armado persa comandado por Ciro II (HERODOTUS, 1975). A origem da ficção, como τεῖχος, instaura uma separação entre os gregos e os não-gregos através da construção de muros. A ameaça do outro, na figura do persa, institui um “Eu” – o grego. A ficção estabelece a proteção diante do outro, na medida que o separa de mim.

Glen had many directorships and a number of unfinished projects. His assistant Directors stepped into some of his busiest and most popular Colleges. Other Colleges and projects were closed, either temporarily for work next year, or permanently, if the graduate numbers indicated that the students were not taking them anymore. A couple of his projects were picked up by willing faculty and are expected to be completed sometime in 2019. We have brought in new members to train as Directors, and are conducting audits to evaluate the Curriculum. These audits look at the numbers of graduates for each College and School, and whether or not some Colleges are still relevant to our membership. We have identified a number of projects for next year, including a more futuristic or analytical approach to some of our real-life topics. My hope is that we can create fewer name-and-date type Colleges in Military Studies and explore the socioeconomic factors leading to war, and the technologies and medical applications of military innovations.

You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 2 Stellar Cosmopolitans: Star Trek and a Federation of Species In which I trace the plot of alliance in Star Trek through the figure of Mr. Spock, the nerd protagonist of a stellar cosmopolis. The movement fromLoser to Alliance constitutes a metanarrative endemic to nerd culture. As the “alien half-breed” of the original series, Spock inhabits the paradoxical role of the superior degenerate, a corruption of pure blood from an advanced civilization. At the same time, he is the machine, the personification of mathematical accuracy, redeemed from his isolation by friendship with the crew of the Enterprise. The ship thereby becomes a microcosm of the United Federation of Planets, a galactic and democratic state. Spock serves as the lynchpin of Trek’s cosmopolitan project, revaluing the nerd as the hero of trans-species friendship. By virtue of this trajectory, Spock invites resistance from the proponents of eugenics, whose avatar is Khan Noonian Singh, the mortal foe of the Enterprise. Khan stands for the tyranny of pure blood, and by rejecting him, Trek grounds its cosmopolitics in egalitarian pluralism, which gradually extends to Hortas and whales, Klingons and cyborgs.

Jarrod Trainque A Thesis in the Field of History of Science, Technology, and Medicine for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University May 2021 Copyright 2021 Jarrod Trainque Abstract The development and adoption of gene therapy as a new therapeutic modality represents a fundamentally new approach to treating diseases by directly modifying human genetic material. No longer the speculations of visionary scientists and science fiction authors, gene therapy makes the genetic engineering of humans a reality in the early 21st century. This MLA thesis identifies and describe the ways that the science fiction franchise Star Trek has portrayed the speculative potential of genetic medicine within the context of emerging real-world applications of gene therapies.
