What's going on with the TOS crew during Discovery? Part.1
To provide some context:
The first episode of discovery takes place in the year 2256
The Enterprise (NCC 1701) launched around 2245. The Enterprise is 11 years old in Discovery and still very much a new starship.
Discovery takes place is three years after the Canon events of the first Original Series pilot and the flashback in the later TOS episode “The Menagerie,” (2253)
During the time of the first Discovery episode Christopher Pike is still in command of the USS Enterprise and is finishing up a 5 year exploratory mission.
Spock is 26 years old and is serving on the USS Enterprise as its science officer.
James T. Kirk is 23 years old and is a Lieutenant aboard the USS Republic. He is finishing his last year in a five year officer training regimen through Starfleet Academy. it will be 9 years till Kirk takes command of the Enterprise.
Nyota Uhura is 17 years old and is more than likely attending classes at Starfleet Academy for advanced phonology and advanced acoustical engineering. She is also a rising star in Starfleet Academy’s Chorale Ensemble. It will be 10 years till she is a Lieutenant assigned aboard the Enterprise.
Montgomery Scott is 34 years old and has been in starfleet for 14 years. it can be assumed that he is serving in an engineering department of a starship or as an engineering advisor for the Deneva colony. it will be 9 years before he is assigned to the Enterprise.
What’s going on with the TOS crew during Discovery? Part.2
The hotly anticipated sequel. Medical edition.
Again, for context: The year is 2256
Leonard McCoy is 29 years old.
Unlike the alternate universe where Bones goes to starfleet academy, the prime universe Bones was not initially educated at starfleet and went to the University of Mississippi from 2245-2253. Bones graduated and received doctorates for medicine in multiple fields in 2253 and after separating from his wife he was commissioned as an officer by starfleet that same year, 3 years before the start of Discovery. in 2256 Bones is just ending a relationship with Nancy Crator, the woman who will be replaced by a monster in the original series episode “the man trap.” Bones will be assigned to the Enterprise in 10 years.
Christine Chapel is 19 years old.
Ms. Chapel is most likely in her first years of studying nursing at either Starfleet academy or a starfleet accredited program at another university. it is implied by writers notes and close to canon resources that she had an interest or career in Ballet before going into a nursing program. it will be ten years before she gets her commission as a nurse on the Enterprise.
What’s going on with the TOS crew during Discovery? Part.3
America’s post wanted: the flight controllers
Pavel Chekov is 11 years old
Primary sources don’t have much to draw from when it comes to his life at this particular point in history. Secondary sources suggest that Chekov has had an interest in space exploration for the majority of his formative years, and that close to this point in his childhood Chekhov’s mother passes away, causing a rift between him and his father. Highly intelligent at such a young age, it has been suggested in close to canon sources that he has a developing interest in computer language and code, and may be taking a course in language with Uhura at starfleet academy through an accelerated education program.
It will be 7 years till he is assigned to the enterprise as a Navigator
Hikaru Sulu is 19 years old
Sulu has just started his second year at starfleet academy. He is a competitive fencer with the academy’s team and just won the previous year’s championship title. He excels in his courses in spatial navigation, and his elective courses in botany have more than likely led to a buildup of plants he’s taking care of in his dormitory as a hobby.
It will be 9 years till he is assigned to the Enterprise as Helmsman.

Hi all, thank you for your support with these posts. I plan to create a masterpost and then do some expanded individual character posts with references later in the week! i would love any input or support/suggestions/help so feel free to message me.
Also, i’m a pretty decent person according to my parents, which is not saying much considering i’m only 22, but feel free to follow me for more content related to star trek or hit me up for deep intellectual conversations about nothing in particular.
Thank you so much for putting things in context! And also for making my heart squeeze with near-painful nostalgia. :)
Fun statistical fact: Cows are about 300 times more likely to kill you than coyotes.
Minor sidenote to statistical fact: If it was common for people to keep several hundred coyotes on their property and routinely chase them into a corral and handle them, this statistic would be different.
this is a great summary of ‘conditional probability’, a statistical property many people grapple with
I was on the subway today, and when the train got delayed, this little kid was like, “fuck,” and a literal chorus of grown-ups went: “HEY.”
let him say fuck
I was at a crossing once and a kid’s dad said ‘and we have to wait for the green man’ and the 30 people on this crossing all stood waiting for the green man just to prove to this kid that that’s what you do. I’ve never seen anyone wait for the green man on this crossing before you just go when its clear. But Everyone Waited.
when it comes to consciousness raising you can spend time telling someone “crazy” is a slur or you can spend time explaining that what looks like “care” or “cure” or “mercy” to them is actually eugenics or abuse. one of these projects has to precede the other and i bet you can guess which one i would prioritize
you’re either going to build a base of clueless liberals who learn by rote to nitpick their language for anything with the remotest connection to ability, or you’re going to help them develop the alertness and critical eye necessary to recognize eugenics and abuse. i don’t think those things are mutually compatible in an immediate timeframe, because one locates both the root and branch of oppression in a disembodied cloud of language and thought, and the other locates it in the real material structures that we need to confront immediately in order to save actual lives. not saying “crazy” isn’t going to get anyone out of forced institutionalization
This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in weeks. Literally, I’ve never been this funny in my entire goddamn life

In order to save costs, the 101 Dalmatians production team thought up an inventive way to animate the vehicles seen in the movie. Instead of drawing the vehicle frame by frame the conventional way, a cardboard model was filmed, as effects animators moved it around in front of the camera. Note the black lines that define all edges.
Frames from this live-action footage were xeroxed on to cels before being painted in the ink & paint apartment. The same process was used later on for Edgar’s motorcycle in The Aristocats.
(From Andreas Deja blog, Deja View)
For as long as man can remember animators have been trying to avoid animating cars
I have never related to someone so hard in my life. Aunt Agatha is me as of right now in my current job.

Because society gives them time

SHOUTOUT TO THE MISS PERU 2018 CONTESTANTS FOR GIVING STATS ABOUT WOMEN’S ISSUES INSTEAD OF THEIR BODY MEASUREMENTS
It wasn’t just the contestants who wanted to get the point across to their audience — violence against women was the theme of the night.
The organizers of Miss Peru 2018 displayed newspaper clippings of prominent cases of murdered and assaulted women as the contestants made their way across the catwalk in bathing suits.
