EAS is proud to be a sponsor of Memory
Alpha, an open Star Trek reference written collaboratively by the readers. The site is a
WikiWiki database, meaning that any fan may edit anything that is not designated as a protected page.
Try it! -- Also, read the Christmas Special 2003 of Star Trek Renegade: The Tides of Destruction.
16.12.03
The server move has not yet taken place. In the meantime, here is an update to
the Galleries: a couple of new emblems,
several images of Vulcans, Delta
Quadrant races, interiors of the
original Enterprise, controls of the
original Enterprise, and some more.
14.12.03
EAS will move to a new server too. The move will prospectively take place today,
but after making the new DNS entries, the site may be temporarily down or
randomly for a couple of days.
13.12.03
The SCN is now running at scn.infopop.cc. In
the Starship Database, there are still more
new images by Alice Orban, including Suliban
ships, the J Class, drydock
type 4.
10.12.03

More about the progress here.

06.11.03
MJ has returned the favor and
has awarded his LCARS Integrity Award Level Four to
EAS. Thanks a lot! Furthermore, see the first version of the Space
Station Chart. I know it looks a bit boring, but that's because the
Spacedock is that dominant, and sizes of many alien stations are still
uncertain.
05.11.03
MJ's Star Trek Portal is the Winner
of the EAE Award for November 2003. Congratulations!
26.10.03
Here is the revised chart of huge
alien ships.
24.10.03

size estimation and only if a clear side view is available.

New stories: In Harm's Way - Part III
by Epsilon Station and Dead Men Tell No Tales
by Melody Barron with the help of Rony Tal.
16.10.03
JoAT update with 26 new designs and 59 new
images. Go here to see everything new. Important
notice: Due to the immense amount of work that needs to be put into every JoAT
update from my part, there may still be many errors, outdated or missing files.
Please bear with me. But the consequence is that the rules will be checked
mercilessly in the future. All contributors are required to read and follow the rules
closely. Designs that need extensive searching, renaming, reformatting, typo
correcting or other work will be moved to the end of the queue.
14.10.03
And here the review of "Impulse".
11.10.03
Here is the review of "Rajiin".

Reviews of "The Xindi" and
"Anomaly". And one request:
I am not able to view any recent episode immediately. Please refrain
from making any comment or request about it until my review is finished. Don't
bug me to write the review -- I usually do that immediately after seeing the
episode.
20.09.03
Added two stories:
Star Trek Deneva - Violent Turn
by John Berkeley and Horizon - Old Rivals
by John Scott.
15.09.03

Added several new Substances and
Particles. Thanks to the contributors! Thanks also to Andrew Hodges of Star
Trek Australia for displaying EAS as featured link!
26.08.03
Updated the Links page.
23.08.03
I have set up a list of Substances and
Particles that was originally created by Steven
Grimm and has unfortunately not been updated since 1998. Many facts have
already been updated in my list, but there is still a lot to do. Users may use
the new submission form to suggest a
particle for inclusion or update an existing entry. Only one request: at this
time I'm rather looking for substantial information, not minor nitpicks.
17.08.03
Two additions to the fan fiction section: Wagon Train to the Stars by

by John Scott.

New poll: What do you think about ads on fan
websites? (No, I don't intend to get ads. Just curious).
12.08.03
Large-scale worm attack on Windows computers. Any system running without a
firewall may be *very easily* infected. Download the patch
(Microsoft). Your system may already be malfunctioning. Possible symptoms
are frequent RPC shutdowns. If this occurs, check for a background process
called "msblast.exe". Here is a removal
tool (Symantec). This and the patch worked perfectly on my own system too.
09.08.03
Fixed previously incomplete upload of the Renegade Ship Gallery (Federation
and Aliens).
07.08.03
The ships of the episode Apex can be
found in the Renegade Ship Gallery (Federation
and Aliens).

(registration required).
04.08.03
The winner of the August EAE Award is: Bravo
Fleet. Congratulations!

I have changed the procedure for the EAE Award. There will still be only one
award per month, and it will now be chosen by the members of the SCN Forum. This
is the voting
thread. (Note: It was necessary to restrict the vote to registered members
in order to prevent misuse.)

anything about it.

The best episode in quite a while, I think.
25.04.03
I have added inconsistencies about the Vulcans in
Enterprise, and about the changing appearance of Andorians. There is also an
Enterprise shuttle count (just like the one for Voyager). Several other pages in the
Inconsistencies section have been updated as well.
23.04.03
It's the one-year anniversary of the Strato-strophe.
Nothing has changed yet. The hosting company keeps lying in their ads about
"unlimited traffic", and keeps slandering their customers who exceed the
"unlimited traffic", as a recent case shows that was reported to me.
22.04.03
My review of "Horizon". There is also
a new guest reviewer: I am posting first-season DS9 reviews by Gadrin.
21.04.03
My "Judgment". I may be alone with
this opinion, but I'm tired of rip-offs disguised as homages.
19.04.03
Here is my review of "The Crossing".
The rest of the recent episodes will follow shortly.
17.04.03
The EAE Award for April goes to Linguistics
Database. Congratulations! A new section, Quick

categories of this site. Finally, the Starfleet Museum has been supplemented
with a listing of UESN and Starfleet
Ships. Thanks to Dan!
05.04.03
All right. I will find a better place for the political stuff. For now, here are
the updates I decided to hold back. I have added the Aeroshuttle and NX-01 shuttle to the
shuttle size chart. Read Star Trek Renegade: Deadlock and
Face in the Mirror by J. Grey. Also new:
Sabredance, a story by Larry Stovall.
20.03.03
George Bush is waging a personal and unlawful war against Iraq, a war that will
cost the lives of thousands of innocent people and that will have incalculable
consequences. Acting like that, Bush is undermining any effort to achieve peace
in the Near East, the American-European friendship, and the authority of the
UNO. Whilst my best wishes go to the US and British soldiers that the war will
be over soon, I strongly disapprove of the motives of their leaders. This is not
the time for wrong patriotism. I don't feel like doing business as usual and I will suspend site updates until further notice.
Feel free to go to my Guestbook
to leave comments.
16.03.03
Enjoy the updated and extended shuttle
size chart.
14.03.03

colonies in the 22nd century. New in the fan fiction section: "Motives"

Sci-Fi Forums. Congratulations to Charles!

to contact me.

and "Canamar", plus more changes in the Starship

on a new page. Thanks to Section 31 for
choosing EAS as their Site of the Month!
29.02.03
The successful series Star
Trek Renegade by J. Grey is continued with Chapter
9, "Leading Edge". A number of new vessels can be found in the
Renegade Ship Gallery (Federation, Alien).
The Starfleet Museum has several new patches (especially of the Paris
class) and renders (such as of the Gagarin
class). Finally, I have written the reviews of "Stigma"
and "Cease Fire".
28.02.03
Depending on your location and connection, EAS has been or will be temporarily
down. This is because my DNS service provider EveryDNS has been the victim of
a DoS attack. More about the situation here: http://12.25.235.40/.
23.02.03
There was no chance for updates after a fatal hard drive crash on my notebook
last week. For now, there are the episode guide entries for "Stigma"
and "Cease Fire". Reviews will follow soon.

My review of "Dawn" is here.
19.01.03

Database. The review will have to wait a couple of days.
18.01.03
Masao has made available some of his preliminary starship
sketches. Furthermore, read my musings about the Realism
in Science Fiction. Thanks to Britannia
Fleet for their award!
12.01.03
Thanks also to Mikey for his award!
11.01.03
The EAE Award for January 2003 goes to Sev
