Yeah, I mean, practically, it doesn't make much sense. In the bible's context, I think Roddenberry was just giving potential writers (like all their guest writers) an out to not have to worry about their date falling into some continuity with another episode, and just made it sound more science-y to explain it away. Really, back then, he didn't really care so much for technical jargon, as long as the story was good and made sense for the characters (this point is also essentially stated in the bible). If you've never read that bible, I highly recommend it, especially if you like behind the scenes kind of stuff. It gives you a bit about what Roddenberry was thinking back then in his approach to the show. Even has a joke or two sprinkled in.

They work just like they did in TOS, where everything is made up and the stardates don't matter.

For real tho. The TOS season 2 writer's bible (which you can find online) basically says the stardate number is a complex calculation that depends not only on time, but your location in the galaxy. I would not be surprised at all if the showrunners/writers are aware of this and are purposely doing it as an homage.

I'm super glad we have new Trek and that it's this good. Trek can be a lot of things to a lot of people. Sometimes it's just fun, and that's perfectly fine. And sometimes it affects us deeply by providing us a story about us. About our humanity, our struggles and faults, and our strengths. Thank you for sharing with us how it made you feel, and for sharing a bit of your story.

I first joined r/startrek over 12 years ago when it was about 3000 subscribers. I had a lot of fun. Every post could be seen and not drowned out. No troll issues. Those early days were really nice.

Shamelessly steal one of Kirk's best lines in "The City on the Edge of Forever".

"Let's get the hell out of here". Adjusting tone as appropriate for the context of course!

Lordy, that's depressing.

"According to myth, /r/startrek was created in 6 days. But watch out! Here comes Lemmy! We'll do it for you in six minutes!"

I Khan dig it.

I see other posts that are only text based and just have a title and text, though I haven't tried it yet myself.

Yeah I had been hoping for years to see what TOS would look like if it were made today with modern production techniques, and SNW was basically that. Love the show. Everything looks fantastic!

What are the current issues with it?

Right now, main and risa are one. Might as well get some jamaharon on until we get our own weather control system.

I took a shuttle instead. You never know when you might get reconstituted as a pile of goo or secretly assimilated.
