The Principles Behind Star Trek -- The best essay I have ever seen as to why Star Trek has the appeal that is does. It is worth the time to read. It should be required reading for anyone that wants to write Star Trek, pro or fan. By Steven Huntley

The Axioms of Star Trek Herein are the Axions of Star Trek. We, the forum, believe that you will get better Star Trek if you observe these axioms.

When Star Trek was New "The world has changed." Never truer words spoken. Here is a view of the world in which Star Trek was born. An Essay by Libertarian author Bill Stone, posted here with his permission.

This I Believe -- By Robert A. Heinlein. Robert Heinlein wrote these words in 1952 and delivered them to a national radio audience in a broadcast interview by Edward R. Murrow. His wife, Virginia Heinlein, read them when she accepted on his behalf NASA's Distinguished Public Service Medal on October 6, 1988, awarded him posthumously.

I also agree with these words, so I present this link to them. This is the attitude that will be required of all men to bring in the peace of the 24th century. This is an external link to The Heinlein Society website

John Campbell: Father of 'Astounding' -- By Chris Aylott. I am an unreconstructed Campbellite. I believe that man will rise or fail on his own efforts. We don't need aliens, the future, God, or Satan to aid our rise or fall. Man has within him all the good, or evil, required. It was formerly on Space.com. It is no longer there.
