There is earlier genealogy episode in Star Trek: The Next Generation, with a nice Easter egg. <br />In the episode "The Neutral Zone", counsellor Troi uses the computer to find descendants of a woman revived after 400 years. The genealogy displayed is readable, and contains various names from popular culture, including those of the first six actors who played Doctor Who.Tamura Joneshttp://www.tamurajones.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5601084536508318012.post-37331858104495764062010-08-13T16:30:31.257-04:002010-08-13T16:30:31.257-04:00There's another episode from TNG where a 20th...There's another episode from TNG where a 20th century person is transported in time and eventually they locate his descendants. The computer is shown spitting out a family tree for many generations and I thought, I want that computer!Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205797878738290997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5601084536508318012.post-62162129932626245592010-08-13T12:56:59.023-04:002010-08-13T12:56:59.023-04:00I am an unabashed trekkie.

It is always a pleasure to "meet" yet another science-fiction-fan-genealogist! <br /><br />If you also like printed sf, check out a post I wrote some time ago called Science Fiction for Genealogists at http://pastprologue.wordpress.com/2008/11/11/science-fiction-for-genealogists/<br /><br />DonnaDonnahttp://pastprologue.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5601084536508318012.post-11448305134259414812010-08-08T13:00:25.049-04:002010-08-08T13:00:25.049-04:00I'm a huge Star Trek fan too!.

When I go back and see shows/movies/books with a genealogy theme, they almost always turn out to be fascinating - I guess because genealogy just makes for a great mystery.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.com
