Celebrating ‘Captain Picard Day’

As Star Trek trivia buffs will know, June 16th is “Captain Picard Day.” Celebrated on that day 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? Some French wine? A little earl grey tea? Tell us in the comments below.

Of course, the iconic Captain Jean-Luc Picard character was played by English-born actor Sir Patrick Stewart for seven seasons on Star Trek: The Next Generation and in four Star Trek feature films. Stewart is set to return to the role in the new Star Trek: Picard series, which is scheduled to premiere later this year.
