Hailing Frequencies Open May 2025

Hailing Frequencies Open logo

Well we have a premier date for season three of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds… kinda. There will be a special premier on June 14 at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City. While an official announcement for when the series will premier on Paramount+, it is logical to assume that it will be quickly after that. New episodes are usually released on Thursday, which could indicate June 19th. For those of you who haven’t seen the teaser trailer for season three, here it is.

And speaking of video clips… we just don’t know what to think of this one.

It’s time to start planning for the upcoming games at the 2025 Fleet Day. This will be held on Saturday, July 19th from 11:00am to 7:00pm. The location is The Queen’s Realm (5451 S. 1900 W., Roy, UT). We will be having a massive indoor gaming event this year with roleplaying games, board games, tactical games, card games and more. Yes, we will have the popular Liars Dice tournament. This will primarily be Star Trek games, but other science-fiction games will be present as well (such as a Stargate RPG). Instead of being catered this year, you can bring your own lunch from one of the many restaurants that are nearby. The Admiral’s Challenge will be the last event of the day. This Fleet event is open to all members and interested visitors.

If you are looking for more information about us feel free to look around this website. Please visit our Online Interest Form (which is undergoing changes so you can also email us at Join@SeventhFleet.org) and let us know which chapter you would like to have reach out to you. You can also talk to us on our Facebook page, on our Discord server or by following us on our BlueSky account.

Crewman 2nd Class Zack Baker-Louvar who is joining the USS Pulsar.

It is with a sad heart that we announce that Star Trek Actor and friend of the Seventh Fleet, Craig Richard Nelson, passed away on March 3, 2025 in Salt Lake City, Utah. He was 77 years old. He had made two Star Trek appearances on The Next Generation and Voyager. He lived in Utah and was a guest at the 2004 Seventh Fleet Admiral’s Banquet and at various local science-fiction conventions. He was very gracious to the local Star Trek fans and will be missed greatly. His online obituary can be found here.

This Fleet event is open to all members and interested visitors.

The Utah Grizzlies Hockey Club will be holding a Star Wars night on Saturday, April 4th at the Maverik Center. They will be playing against the Tahoe Knight Monsters. A special group discount has been set up for Star Trek fans at this website. Star Trek costumes are being encouraged to see if there might be an interest in holding a Star Trek night next season.

Don’t forget that safety should be at the forefront when you start with your outdoor activities. One of the events that the State of Utah holds every April is the Great Utah Shakeout coming up on April 17th. This is a state-wide earthquake drill that starts at 10:15 am. Information on how to prepare for this drill and how you can protect yourself from earthquakes can be found at the link just posted above.

If the latest online rumors are true, the next season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds will be released on July 31st.

Online Interest Form Fixed

We were just made aware that our Online Interest Form for new recruits was not sending out messages to the webmaster to forward to the chapters. After pulling out a big hammer and threatening the servers, the form started working again and has sent several successful tests. We had never heard a computer whimper before.

If you’ve sent in a form expressing interest in joining one of the Seventh Fleet chapters recently, and you have not heard anything back, please fill out another form or email us at Join@SeventhFleet.org. We will make sure it gets to the right parties for you to be contacted.

You can also reach out to us on the Seventh Fleet Facebook page, the Seventh Fleet Discord Server or on our Seventh Fleet BlueSky account as well.

Sorry about the computer messing up. It’s promised to never do it again.

As this post is scheduled to go online, SaltCON-Spring will be happening at the Davis Conference Center in Layton. If you want to check out some gaming (and read this in time) feel free to check out the convention.

Speaking of gaming, we are looking for people to run various sit-down games for the upcoming Fleet Day in July (date TBA). We want to run all sorts of Star Trek roleplaying games, board games, card games, tactical games and anything else that sounds like fun. If you would like to assist, please contact your Commanding Officer.

Spring is just around the corner and a lot of us can’t wait for the warmer weather. Don’t forget that safety should be at the forefront when you start with your outdoor activities. One of the events that the State of Utah holds every April is the Great Utah Shakeout coming up on April 17th. This is a state-wide earthquake drill that starts at 10:15 am. Information on how to prepare for this drill and how you can protect yourself from earthquakes can be found at the link just posted above.

No news yet on when we will be getting season three of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. The moment we have anything we will post it here. If you are needing a Star Trek itch scratched, check out the latest issues of the Star Trek comics by IDW Publishing. They have several ongoing series including a new Star Trek: Lower Decks ongoing line.

Thank you to everyone who attended or helped out at the 2025 Admiral’s Banquet. It is truly a testament to the coordination and leadership skills used to put this event together so that when an unexpected item happens (say the two coordinators and their mother coming down sick) the event pulls off without a hitch. If you were unable to attend, you were missed. We had a lot of fun talking about the past year, honoring those who had passed on and looking forward to our future. The Fleet Day will be coming up this summer and we hope to see you all there for the various games that will be played.

Also the Seventh Fleet calendar was passed out to all Commanding Officers at the banquet. If you ordered a calendar, contact your CO to pick it up. We are now collecting photos for the 2026 calendar. They can be sent to Photos@SeventhFleet.org.

Have you had a chance to watch Star Trek: Section 31 yet? Remember that spoilers can be discussed in our Spoilers-Channel on the Seventh Fleet Discord server. Now if we could just get a date for the season three premier of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, that would be great.

SaltCON is a large gaming convention that is held at the Davis Convention Center every spring and the USS White Buffalo runs the Artemis Bridge Simulator there. This re-creates a Star Trek bridge with various battle simulations that a Captain and Crew can try out. This includes the infamous Kobayashi Maru scenario. Dare you take this challenge?

Hailing Frequencies Open January 2025

And 2025 is now here. First things first, from your planet, welcome. Our big event for this month is our annual celebration of the founding of the Seventh Fleet called the Admiral’s Banquet. This is where the Admiralty gets to celebrate the many members of our Star Trek family. The USS Rendezvous is coordinating this year’s event. This year the banquet will be held in Richmond at the same location that we had some of our past banquets. This will be held on Saturday, January 25th starting at 11am. The cost for the banquet food will be $5.00, cash at the door. The food will be Dutch Oven Chicken or Pork, potatoes, salad, rolls and desert. There will be a Quark’s Bar run by the USS Valkyrie. There will be ship videos and a silent auction. Volunteers are needed for setup and take down. Please contact your Commanding Officer if you would like to help. This is a uniformed/nice-dressed event for members and their plus ones.

We were just informed of the passing of a Seventh Fleet member that happened earlier in 2024. In May, Dineh Torres had passed away while in care of her family. She had been a member of the USS Kelly back in 1994 and had attended several meetings and out-of-town conventions while with the club. In the photo below she is highlighted while we were at the Christa McAuliffe Space Center (a simulator that used Star Trek to educate kids). Many thanks to Erin Ruston for tracking down this information. The Seventh Fleet would like to extend our condolences to Dineh’s family. May her memory always be a blessing.

Wow, we were young.

So what did you all think of the season finale of Star Trek: Lower Decks? Admiral Stark informed us that he was getting a LOT of roleplaying game ideas that could be run using Star Trek Adventures from that last episode. Remember to keep the pressure on Paramount to get a return for the show with a special, mini-series or TV movie. And speaking of TV movies, Star Trek: Section 31 will premier on Paramount+ on Friday, January 24th. It will be good to see Michelle Yeoh back in the Star Trek universe.

We have a new social media account to use for communication purposes. With the rapid growth of BlueSky, we felt it was necessary to grab our username that we’ve used on other social media sites. The service has been adding a million members a day. A lot of Star Trek actors and professionals have made the jump as well including William Shatner, Kate Mulgrew, George Takei, Anson Mount, LeVar Burton, Wil Wheaton, Jeri Ryan, Robert Picardo, Michelle Hurd, Wilson Cruz, Todd Stashwick, Chase Masterson, Eugene Roddenberry, Alex Kurtzman, Terry Matalas, Mike McMahan, Mike Okuda, Larry Nemecek and many more.

The first three episodes of Star Trek: Lower Decks have been released on Paramount+ and they are hilarious. We have now seen what the Gallemites mentioned from Deep Space Nine look like. New episodes are released every Thursday. We don’t know what future plans are in store for Lower Decks after season five. While it’s been announced that this is the last season, there are always possibilities. A Lower Decks TV movie? Picked up by another streaming service like Star Trek Prodigy was? The best way to tell the powers that be that we want more is to watch these new episodes.

Another FanX: The Salt Lake Comic Convention has come and gone. The Seventh Fleet was very well represented by our main booth with the full sized shuttle, the Artemis Simulator running two bridges and attendees in general. We had a lot of volunteers who helped at both locations and with the convention itself. Not only did we help the convention, but we were able to fulfill one of our primary missions of community service. Funds were raised for the Cache Community Food Pantry (and you can still donate by clicking on the link, please let them know that the Seventh Fleet sent you). Many thanks to the USS Rendezvous for coordinating the booth and the USS White Buffalo for coordinating the Artemis Simulator. And we couldn’t do this with out the help of Dan Farr and the staff and volunteers at FanX. Thank you.

The Seventh Fleet and Star Trek were also presented on the news at FanX. ABC4 had a presentation about the Star Trek: The Next Generation Panel. ABC4 also interviewed members of the Seventh Fleet at the Artemis Simulator. If you took pictures at the convention, please send them into Photos@SeventhFleet.org.

If you stopped by either location and checked us out, welcome. We hope you had fun at the convention. Please visit our Online Interest Form and let us know which chapter you would like to have reach out to you. Even if you wrote down your information at the booth, this helps us get your details to the chapter as quickly as possible. You can also look around this website and ask us questions. We would love to have us join the fun at one of our many upcoming activities.

Don’t forget to join us on the Seventh Fleet Discord server. Gif-Wars has been very popular as well as sharing memes. The #Spoiler-Zone is where we can openly talk about the latest episodes (not just of Star Trek) without having to worry about spoiling it for someone who hasn’t seen the episodes yet. We also need photos of your pets for the #Porthos-Pals channel. This becoming the new online hangout.

We are looking forward to the fifth season of Star Trek: Lower Decks that will be airing on Paramount+ on Thursday, October 24th. The first two episodes will premier on that date with new episodes continuing every Thursday until December 19th. Some of us are still crossing our fingers that there will be more Star Trek: Lower Decks in some format in the future. There will be new Lower Decks comics being released by IDW Publishing, but we’d love a series of Lower Deck made-for-TV movies (hint, hint). Hopefully if we all watch Lower Decks, the powers that be may consider it.
