As trivia buffs will know, June 16th is “Captain Picard Day.” Celebrated today, because of its equivalence to Stardate 47457.1, as mentioned in the Star Trek: The Next Generation seventh season episode “The Pegasus”.
We’ve embedded a clip from the episode below to help get you into the festive spirit.
How do you celebrate the Captain of the Enterprise-D? French wine? Earl Grey tea? Tell us in the comments below.
