🚨 STAR TREK AT THE ROSE PARADE

Here’s a first look at the #StarTrek float debuting at the 137th Rose Parade, on Jan 1st 2026.

Celebrating the 60th anniversary, it’ll have β€œSpace for Everybody” as it voyages through Pasadena.

It will also promote #StarfleetAcademy.

Before I start talking about food on #StarTrekTOS, I have to mention the very first drink/food ever seen on #StarTrek: The martini Dr. Boyce serves to Captaik Pike (in a beaker, no less) in the original pilot "The Cage". This is the only time a martini is seen without olives on the shows: 🧡 1/2

We get a good look at Pike's bedroom in #StarTrekSNW's "New Life and New Civilizations". I love that he has a model of the USS Enterprise on display and there are books not in the shelves but on top of the whole shelf unit (like in my bedroom - just not enough space for #StarTrek books!) 😜

In future Pike's home in #StarTrekSNW's "New Life and New Civilizations"⬅️, there's a bottle of brown kanar in its trademark bottle. It's the same rare brown kanar variety that only appeared in #StarTrekDS9's "Way of the Warrior"➑️ (instead of the much more common black variety). πŸ‘Œ

Here are the only two items in Pike's future house in #StarTrekSNW's "New Worlds and New Civilizations" that show the 23rd century setting: Two of Juliet's drawings feature the USS Enterprise and what looks like a spacestation or starship in orbit of a planet.

Amazing performances by Anson and Melanie! I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this episode since I first watched.

Yes, same for me. I just expected a creepy episode with the Vezda, and while it started that way, it became so much more…

Here's a comparison of Captain Pike's house in the #StarTrekSNW pilot episode "Strange New Worlds"⬆️ and in the season 3 finale "New Life and New Civilizations"⬇️. The filming location must have been modified in the years between the two episodes.

After Pike was handed a PADD by a yeoman early in #StarTrekSNW's "Terrarium" and we even got a close-up of the PADD, I thought it must contain some important information. Instead, it has the most mundane and bureaucratic filler text (topic: discretionary resource allocation) which I find hilarious!

While #StarTrekDay (Sept. 8) celebrates the premiere of The Original Series, #StarTrek's world premiere was actually September 6β€”when "The Man Trap" aired on CTV in Canada.
