JB> Zetharm Cochrane Zefram...Glenn Corbett JB> Professor Moriarty (?) Character name spelled correctly, just add first name of James. Actor was Daniel Davis. JB> Lieutenant Reginald Barcley I've always thought it was spelled "Barclay." JB> Luwaxanna(?) Lwaxana JB> Major Kira Nerys (?) This is correct.

In the bay is a standard TOS style shuttle and Cyrano Jones ship. On the back wall of the wall is the sign: "Welcome to K-7, now go home". ;) I discused a space ship being built about a year and a half ago for some new project. Finally found out what it was. They were trying to do a new series called Osiris or something like that. Had casting problems and then budgeting problems. The project got shelved, but the orientation for more Star Wars then Star Trek. Some interesting trivia... some of the internal layout of the Enterprise "D" is very similar to the Enterprise from TMP.. simply because they used some of the TMP layout for the "D". ;) Yes, while the shows are on hiatis... several projects in the works.. including an update on some existing published material. Some VERY interesting discussions on the status of the "Defiant" and Defiant class. ;) DS-9 ops are being rebuilt.
