CHAPTER NEWS
CATCH US ON THE HOLODECK!
Back in 2020 we were forced to switch to virtual meetings and events via Zoom due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. Since then we have grown to appreciate the many benefits of having virtual events, especially for those members that can not attend in person due to distance, health or scheduling reasons. That said, we do attend in-person events and conventions in the Philly and Mid-Atlantic areas. Therefore we have decided to continue to operate as a hybrid chapter, both virtually and in person. Check out our Calendar page for a complete listing of our upcoming meetings, events and area conventions and join us either virtually or in person.
Computer: End Program!
CONGRATS TO THE USS ADAMANT!
Both captain and crew won some nice regional awards for the 2023 awards season. The chapter won 2023 Region 7 Website of the Year! And our very own fearless leader, Vice Admiral Mary Ann won 2023 Region 7 CO of the Year and also 2023 Region 7 Staff Member of the Year for her efforts as Region 7 Communications Chief and Webmaster. Congrats to us all!

Patrick Stewart’s Alternate Star Trek: Picard Season 3 Ending That Didn’t Happen
May-28-2025
Star Trek: Picard season 3’s finale, “The Last Generation”, almost ended differently, but Patrick Stewart’s original pitch was abandoned in favor of a less ambiguous farewell. I actually quite like the sound of Stewart’s idea, but I think the ending that Picard opted for was the superior option. The legendary sci-fi actor did a stellar job of leading Star Trek: Picard’s cast for all three seasons, but the show ultimately ended on a note that was less about the show’s title character and more about the relationships that defined the decorated Starfleet officer… READ MORE
Star Trek: Discovery Was Denied 2-Hour Finale Movie Says Sonequa Martin-Green
April-20-2025
When Star Trek: Discovery wrapped production on season 5 in November of 2022, the cast and crew didn’t know that season would be their last. When the cancellation announcement came, producers were offered the opportunity to film a 16-minute epilogue to wrap up the series properly; five months later, the cast got back together to board Discovery one last time. Sonequa Martin-Green (Michael Burnham), who became a producer on the show in season 4, revealed details about the original plans—and hopes—for ending the series… READ MORE
Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2 Nominated For TCA Award Ahead Of Netflix Removal At Year’s End
July-9-2025
Once again Star Trek: Prodigy is getting high praise, picking up its second nomination from the prestigious Television Critics Association. Unfortunately, accolades for the animated series do not appear to be enough to ensure its future, at least on Netflix. After being abruptly removed from Paramount+ in the summer of 2023 and following a “Save Star Trek: Prodigy” fan campaign, the series was picked up by Netflix, which began streaming the first season on Christmas Day 2023… READ MORE
