I saw that documentary where Shatner visits the other Captains. Loved it and his encounter with Chris Pine ( i kept writing Pike lol ) was just wholesome. I've thought a lot about sudden fame and how people deal with it - it must be difficult to see the thing you're in get popular, coupled with another person getting the spotlight in that popularity. Nowadays the whole cast is popular, but i assume it wasn't always like this or at least the actors didn't get the kind of feedback, that's possible with internet and social media.

I was heartbroken, when Shatner came back from his short amazon(g) space trip - for the way he was dismissed by Bezos when landing and for his experience. Some Astronaut might have said this kind of thing before, but it was my first time hearing someone that was in space, say other things than it was a miracle, wonderful, in awe, 100% would do again, etc.

The way he was shocked about the bleakness, darkness and the void that is around us. I think we cannot imagine how it feels to see Earth from 'another' place - i now imagine the Earth like a submarine in the deepest depth of the ocean, but with less protection. We only have an atmosphere, keeping the surrounding void from destroying us in a whim.

I’m in the process of a TOS rewatch right now, on S3. I feel like I’m slowing down because I don’t want to reach the end again.

LOL - i've been dong this consciously as of late. Like, going 3 episodes back, before watching the last episode. Just not letting it end. I've only caught myself doing this with Star trek series though.

I'm now doing this with Picard season 3. Watching it the first time and i just don't want it to end. I avoided spoilers, so them all coming back caught me pretty off guard.
