A solarpunk Star Trek would be amazing! Tell the story of civilians living in a post-scarcity economy, building a colony, farming, and running restaurants. The "Articles of the Federation" idea of "The West Wing in Space" made my heart skip a beat.

I want to see more of Federation life, through a lens other than the military!

I enjoyed the couple episodes of DS9 where you meet Sisco's dad back on earth running a restaurant.

Exactly what I was thinking about. Though I think if you wanted to do a series, you'd probably want a little more conflict than a paradise planet could offer.

I could see a series in the vein of "The Love Boat" centered around Risa.
