Fun fact: I chose the name of the Excelsior II class USS Eureka for season 2 of #StarTrekPicard. I was looking for names similar to "Excelsior" and found out that "Excelsior" was the state motto of New York. I looked for other US state mottos and saw that "Eureka" is California's state motto. That's how the ship got its name. :-)

I love all those sweater metaphores (sweaterphores?) Wesley uses in #StarTrekProdigy's "The Devourer of All Things I" @jennifermuro! :-) It is also wonderful how a connection to #StarTrekPicard's "Farewell" is established, using Wesley's very similar words. 😊
#ProdigySpoilers
#StarTrekProdigy's "The Fast and the Curious"↘️ features a rare Borg logo appearance. So far, it has only been seen in these earlier episodes:
#StarTrekTNG: "Q Who", "TBoBW I+II", "Descent I+II", #StarTrekVOY: "Unimatrix Zero I" and #StarTrekPicard: "Penance".
#ProdigySpoilers
I love how #StarTrekProdigy season 2 is showing the switch from the earlier Starfleet Command logo ("Into the Breach I"↖️↗️⬅️) to the updated one ➡️ from #StarTrekPicard, first seen in 2385 ("The End is the Beginning"⬇️). :-)

I started working on my #StarTrek lecture PowerPoint presentation today, covered everything until late 2020 when I started work as a research assistant on #StarTrekPicard. Crazy how many years I've already been a Trekkie and grateful for all the joy it has brought me over the years!
I finally caved in and got myself another Promellian battlecruiser model from @MasterReplicas_. It was used on #StarTrekPicard (in "The Star Gazer"↖️ and "The Next Generation"↗️) after all and it's my last chance to build my own ship in a bottle! Do hurry!

Happy #CaptainPicardDay! :-)
Various Eaglemoss starship models have appeared on #StarTrek in the last few years, including #StarTrekPicard's "Monsters"↖️, "Hide and Seek"↗️, "The Next Generation"↙️ and "Seventeen Seconds"↘️. Now's your last chance to get them from @MasterReplicas_ :

Both the Romulan pistols and rifles seen in the #StarTrekProdigy episode "Masquerade"⬆️ are the ones also used in season 1 of #StarTrekPicard ("Remembrance"⬇️). In the former, they fire green beams, in the latter, they fire red beams.
@DarioZanette @tbalena It later became the USS Enterprise, as confirmed by #StarTrekPicard's "Bounty".
Among the items in Kovich's collection in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Life, Itself"↖️ is a bottle of Chateau Picard. It features the same label and vintage (2249) as Georgiou's bottle from "The Vulcan Hello"⬇️. The prop most likely comes from #StarTrekPicard's "The Star Gazer"⬆️↗️.
Two years later, in 2022, the Betazoid emblem also appeared on one of the Federation member flags seen at Starfleet Academy in #StarTrekPicard's "The Star Gazer", giving the species an official flag! I hope this flag is still somewhere in the #StarTrek archives! 8/14
One of the trophies seen in Picard's quantum archive in #StarTrekPicard's"Remembrance" is a Betazoid Loyalties award. The prop was seen at several #StarTrek exhibitions and I first noticed the trophy in @trekcore gallery of the exhibition but quickly forgot about it. 2/14
I love that the Betazoid emblem, created by fan David Bilic (aka Zeleni) 17 years ago, has now been seen in three #StarTrek shows: #StarTrekPicard ↖️↗️, #StarTrekLowerDecks ↙️ and #StarTrekDiscovery ↘️ . Learn the full story and find out why the emblem has come full circle! 1/14 🧵
I'll finally get to wear this outrageous shirt that @DaveBlass sent me for my work on #StarTrekPicard season 2+3 at #FedCon. Perfect opportunity! 🖖
If you see me in it, say Hi! :-)
Turns out there are two #StarTrek connections in this scene from #LogansRun ⬆️↗️now:
The Ubald Klug Terrazza sofa, also seen in #StarTrekPicard's "Disengage"⬇️ and #StarTrekDiscovery's "Jinaal"↘️ and the backdrop, also seen in #StarTrekTNG's "Final Mission"↖️ and "Tapestry"↙️.😊
Big thanks to everyone who let me know that Saru's couch in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Jinaal", which also appeared in Sneed's abode in #StarTrekPicard's "Disengage", is actually a Terrazza sofa by Ubald Klug, also appearing on #DoctorWho in "Robots of Death" + "Timelash". :-)
Slug-o-Cola really must taste delicious! After having been introduced in #StarTrekDS9's "Profit and Lace"↘️⬇️, it first re-appeared in #StarTrekPicard's "Disengage"⬆️↗️, then in #StarTrekLowerDecks' "Parth Ferengi's Heart Place"↖️ and now in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Jinaal"↙️. 👌👌
The couch in Saru's new quarters at Starfleet Headquarters in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Jinaal"⬆️ was originally seen in Sneed's abode in the #StarTrekPicard season 3 episode "Disengage"⬇️. Thank you @DaveBlass! :-)
Among the items in Fred's store in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Red Directive"⬆️ are a kur'leth similar to Worf's in #StarTrekPicard's "Imposters"➡️ and Picard's d'k tahg in a wooden box, as seen in Star Trek Picard season 2's "The Star Gazer"⬇️.
Among the items in Dr. Vellek's lab on his Romulan science vessel in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Red Directive"↖️↗️ is a Romulan PADD, originally seen in the #StarTrekPicard season 2 episode "Fly Me to the Moon"⬇️. Props and set pieces from #Picard were sent to Toronto, it seems. 👌
The first items Moll and L'ak steal from the Romulan science ship in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Red Directive"↖️↗️➡️ are these isolinear chips with the Daystrom Insitute emblem ("Remembrance"⬇️). They seem familiar but I cannot place them in any #StarTrekPicard episode right now.😅
The Romulan writing, seen on Lyrek in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Under the Twin Moons"⬆️ features the new type of Romulan font, introduced in season 1 of #StarTrekPicard ("Maps and Legends"➡️, "Absolute Candor"⬇️).
Among the items offered to Fred the antiques trader by Moll and L'ak in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Red Directive"↙️↘️ is a Romulan tricorder, originally created for the season 2 #StarTrekPicard episode "Hide and Seek"↖️↗️.
Here are all the #StarTrek franchise opening clip ships seen so far:
#StarTrekDiscovery: USS Discovery ↗️
#StarTrekPicard: USS Titan ↖️ + USS Enterprise-D ➡️
#StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds: USS Enterprise ⬅️
#StarTrekLowerDecks: USS Cerritos ↙️
#VeryShortTreks: #TAS USS Enterprise ↘️
Did you notice the Kurlan naiskos in Dr. Kovich's room in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Red Directive"↖️↗️? This might be the same prop created for #StarTrekPicard and seen in all three seasons➡️↘️, based on the prop created for #StarTrekTNG's "The Chase"⬅️↙️. 👌
Among the items in Fred's lair on Q'mau in #StarTrekDiscovery's "Red Directive"⬇️ is a 23rd century Klingon cloaking device, exactly like the one from HMS Bounty, seen in #StarTrekPicard's "The Bounty"↖️⬅️, based on the one in the Klingon Bird-of-Prey Owner's Workshop Manual ↗️.
