Notes

• This is bad. Like legit bad. Like what the f were they thinking bad.  It commits the cardinal error of altering the characters to be what they’re not.  Uhura is rendered immobile because she saw herself old in a mirror?  Good Lord.
• The only episode with the proper United Federation of Planets flag – it can be seen in the title image above.
• One of the kids in this was in a Star Trek: TNG episode (Night Terrors) as a substitute bridge crew.   That is Brian Tochi – pictures below.
