I totally agree with you :) though the word 'man' derives from the Old English word 'Mann' which means 'human being', that's why I don't find this phrasing problematic :)@@sharonec5419
This is such an excellent distillation of what makes Star Trek great: big ideas, wonderful characters, humanity bettering itself. You get it. Thank you for making and sharing this.
This is so amazing. It's just a short recap of what life should be and an ecouragement to go chase that goal you've always wanted to reach. When Kirk said that it's time for a new crew to take over, I believe Roddenberry said to us: now it's time for you to boldly go, get out there, and make the world the most amazing thing it can be. I'm sure that if everyone would think the way Star Trek does, the world would be a much better place. Star Trek is my life, and this video portrayed exactly why.
WOW! This Clip is what Star Trek is all about and why I love it for so many years! The possibilities for mankind are endless when we stop fighting each other and start working together to built a better future!
I've worked the past nine months (from october to july) as COVID-19 contact and trace investigator at my state health services. In those nine months i've seen more death and despair then most people do in a lifetime. Sometimes it was hard to see through the darkness of it all. When i thought i couldnt see through it anymore, I searched up this video and it showed and star trek (again) reminded me of the strength of humanity, and our ability to overcome great strife an do better ourselves
Even more than the video, the comments on this page are what truly give me hope that humanity has a future worth living in, and that some of us are living that future already. ❤ 🖖
Thank You, from the bottom of every Trekkies heart, for the most touching video i've, and many others, have had the express pleasure, and enjoyment, of watching. We might not be space explores, but in the great depths of RUclips to find this touches many.
The Vandar This video is fantastic, the first time I watched it, it made me choke up a bit!! I want to use it to get other people into Star Trek. Please can you update it with some Discovery stuff!! Well done LLAP 🖖
If star trek ever gave me anything, it's the will to better myself and be useful to humanity as much as I can. And you know what, I think that's a pretty good message.
I watch this and am at once so happy; and yet so sad for the world. Here is the truth of what Humanity could be. I only wish we could mirror this ideal as a species. Thank you.
This video shows nearly every reasons why I love Star Trek - and science. I am looking for new questions too. I think Star Trek is one of the most important reasons why I found myself in working in science.
To the creator of this video, just to let you know I am suing you for lost time. Because of you, I have spent 100s of hours rewatching these fantastic shows and movies.... This is a fantastic representation of Star Trek and you should be proud. Well Done!
This video just sums up star trek I got a lump in my throat when I watched it llap fellow trekies remember we are all explorer's driven to know what's over the horizon what's beyond our own shores 🖖
Exactly! We shall NEVER let history forget....the names....of the explorers! Both Earth, Federation's, and those that explored before humans......that truly star treked.
I seen Star Trek since it first air and love it. The message it give humanity is we can achieve anything as long as we can put our differences aside and work to better humanity.
There are hundrets of these around, and all are beutifull. Yet some are just even better, this is an example. Its what makes Star Trek what it is, and why everyone loves it.
I believe there is no such a word to describe how awesome, moving and inspiring this video is. This should have been played during the 50th ann Las Vegas convention. Amazing video. Totally crying.
I wish I could thumbs up this more than once. This is the reason I love Star Trek above all other sci-fi. And Star Trek shaped my childhood, contributing to the man I am now. Thank you for creating this.
Honestly.. I've just watched this once again and all I can think of right now is: This is brilliant! So well done!! Actually better than any other ST-Vid. It captures the very core of Star Trek. And it's very emoional.
Space is beautiful, imagine all the possibilities they lay within the Stars, imagine if all humans werent divided, if we all worked together as Humans of earth, we can become Starfleet, we can become hope to the stars
This is the 30th Anniversary of TNG. I watched my entire Blu-ray set in honor of it. I am definitely a Trekkie. That was a wonderful use of that Picard speech to Shinzon in Nemesis.
If you can't take a little bit of a blood bath out there, you should stay home. Space, not for the faint of hearts, but for those that can conquer which is dark, cold, and dangerous in many ways. But, once you can overcome the most serious situations in space....you will "boldly go, where no one has (yet) gone before......" GOD SPEED!
This is incredible....am I the only person that is at anytime always watching Star Trek? Like on Netflix I start with TNG then go to DS9 then VOY and end with ENT and then back to TNG over and over again and honestly it never gets old or repetitive Star Trek represents what I hope our future will be I also can’t wait to see what this new Picard show will be
OK i stand corrected. this is just incredible. huge trekkie fan +hearing all the captains talk is just breathtaking. whether its all with shows or films ~EPIC
WOW! This is absolutely amazing! :) I can imagine the work that you put into this, and it's definitely the greatest tribute to the franchise I ever seen! :) You touched on all and every aspects of Star Trek, even touching the future with Discovery! Well done, great job my friend and may this video live long and prosper! :) _\\//
This video right here makes my heart soar. It's why I'm not worried about Discovery. If it's got human adventures and the spirit of exploration, then it'll fit right in with the history of Trek.
Completely disagree, but hey that's what's cool about fandom; people can totally disagree on stuff. DISCO rocks! That last Mudd episode was the best one yet!
Normally, i'd tell how much i liked the video. But for this one i can not describe how i feel. If i try it, it'd be so long that no one could try to read it. I was smiling all along, i couldn't stop.
when I think about... everything we've been through together - maybe it's not the destination that matters. Maybe it's the journey. If that journey takes a little longer, so we can do something we all believe in, I can't think of any place I'd rather be, or any people I'd rather be with. Pure Gold
the quality of this video is so good that it honestly wouldn't be out of place in an introduction to humanity for potential alien races in a sort of NASA's Golden Record kind of way
The producers of Discovery need to see this. Not that it wasn't an ok first season, but it wasn't quite right. This might steer them onto what the fans want. Well done!
@MonkeyZorr And everything you said would be wrong, there is plenty of Discovery that is Star Trek, the only thing that is changed is that they are telling the stories in different ways
I have never seen this tribute before today. As a fan of Star Trek for over 30 years I am floored by this video. Getting to visit with all our friends on the Enterprise, DS9 and Voyager just underlines how long ago all this great Star Trek aired and just how far we have to go right now. For some reason our world has been turning backward for several years now - undoing so much of the progress that would give us a glimpse of the utopian future of Star Trek. Thanks for letting us hang out with our dear friends again in this little clip.
Space...the final frontier...it has always been, and always will be. It is a place we have yet to fully explore...man has always wondered what is out there. It is why Star Trek has always been what could be our future...hopefully.
Thank you for a beautiful and brilliant tribute to all of Star Trek, and that genius move of having the captain's log play over the shot of the USS Discovery to pass the torch. BRAVO!
I miss Star Trek, I think we could all use it right now. Something to strive for. But perhaps that is why GR made the series ... to comfort us in times of darkness, and to instill us what we need to push through that darkness to what surely lies ahead of us ... a future worth living for. Good luck everyone!
This is staggeringly beautiful. And I believe it truly captures the heart and soul of that which is Star Trek. Thank you for sharing this with us old and new fans alike. Let's Go! 🤣🤣
I wish someone would just remind me to watch this now and then. There's an emotion that just... Very few things in the world feel like Gene's progressive dream of exploring the universe.
As a boy, Star Wars gave me a moral compass. As a man, Star Trek gives me the hope and inspiration to use it. Nothing but infinite diversity, connection, and love for who we may become as a species.
Precisely.
Same ❤
Infinite diversity,like the one in west europe now? 😂😂😂
I might be drunk, but this is the future I want
amen
Amen
might! ^^
You aren't drunk. We, humans... We're all explorer at heart. Driven to know what's beyond the horizon...
It won't happen unless we Americans make it happen!
It's 2023......and your video still continues to give me hope.
Thank you.
And now, it's 2024, and still, it gives me hope. Agreed. Thank you!
Still returning in 2024 as well
Star Trek: The idea of exploration.
Star Wars: The idea of good vs evil.
Battlestar Galactica: The idea of perseverance and defending all you hold dear.
Babylon 5: The idea that we can rise from the ashes to make something better.
Stargate: The idea that we have a bright future if we learn from the past.
All are amazing in their own right! And then... There's Andromeda
Wh40k: Star Trek didnt work god dammit
Thunderbirds: The idea that one of the most important questions is "How can I help"
@@Battle_Brother-e3v it still can if we're all willing for it to work.
Agreed but just one correction: star trek: being the absolute best that humanity can be.
"Centuries ago, mankind sent it's first explorers into that void. They paved the way for the first colonies, the first starships.... for those of us who made space our home"
We can be these people.
Too bad we don’t have any new stuff :(
....as far as you know
We MUST be these people.
I wish we become these people🥲

Thank You, Sir
It is the unknown, that defines our existence. We are constantly searching, not just for answers to our questions, but for new questions.
Emissary was always one of my favorite episodes of Star Trek
"...That is the exploration that awaits you. Not mapping stars and studying nebula, but charting the unknown possibilities of existence.”
― Q, All Good Things...
Questions such as, "How much heresy is one techpriest capable of?" and "Can I fit an entire chain-sword down this heretics throat?"

@sharonec5419 in that scene, Picard is talking to a clone of himself. Calling him a man is the correct word choice
This is such an excellent distillation of what makes Star Trek great: big ideas, wonderful characters, humanity bettering itself. You get it. Thank you for making and sharing this.
You get it, he gets it, I get it. Kurtzman doesn't get it.
@@kolar Seth McFarlane gets it
Gene is looking down right now smiling at the community, the band of brothers and sisters, the culture the world he created
He's also saying "where are all the tits?!"
Every now and then I feel a little sad. And I come back and watch this and I feel less sad.
I sincerely hope that humanity becomes this one day.
I hope it's better than that...because this is a pretty low bar.
I'm 26 years old, and Star Trek is the best thing ever happend to me :)
This is so amazing. It's just a short recap of what life should be and an ecouragement to go chase that goal you've always wanted to reach.

this is the perfect briefing for someone who does not grasp star trek

I dunno about that, Discovery is amazing and I've been loving every episode. Star Trek is BACK Baaaaaybeeeeee!!!
