...that the year in which Star Trek: The Next Generation takes place (2364) wasn't mentioned until TNG: "The Neutral Zone"? Using other time measurements, such as how old Dr. McCoy was in "Encounter at Farpoint", fans were able to place the years of the original series and other episodes.

...that shortly after the Voyager episode "Death Wish", in which Q reduces the USS Voyager and hides it on a Christmas tree, a USS Voyager Christmas ornament was produced by Hallmark?

...that while Morn's headpiece's mouth was designed to be able to move and talk, and every time it was applied to the actor it was capable of doing so, he never spoke a single word throughout all of Deep Space Nine?

...that the story pitch for the Enterprise episode "Future Tense" featured the original series Starship USS Defiant NCC-1764 instead of a timeship from the 31st century?

...that the shuttlecraft Stadi and Tom Paris use to get to the Voyager at the beginning of "Caretaker" changes registry numbers numerous times, from NCC-1701-D, to NCC-74656, to NCC-71325, and back again?

...that the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Encounter at Farpoint" was the final television appearance of DeForest Kelley before his death on 11 June 1999?

...that the USS Enterprise-D visited Deep Space 9 at least twice? The ship visited the station in "Emissary" and "Birthright, Part I".

...that unbeknownst to the rest of the production staff, Hal Sutherland, the director of Star Trek: The Animated Series, was colorblind? To him, pink was indistinguishable from light gray, therefore many images were unintentionally featured in the color pink.

...that the first interracial kiss between a Caucasian and an African-American on American network TV was between William Shatner and Nichelle Nichols in the 1968 Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Plato's Stepchildren"?

...that every time the mirror universe has been visited on Deep Space Nine, a Ferengi has been executed? In "Crossover", Kira Nerys killed Quark; in "Through the Looking Glass", Elim Garak killed Rom; in "Shattered Mirror", Kira killed Nog; in "The Emperor's New Cloak", Kira killed Brunt. This cycle is perpetuated in the Star Trek Customizable Card Game where each successive death can enable the player to bring into the game the next person in the cycle (i.e. Quark downloads Rom, Rom downloads Nog, etc). The cycle can also be looped, in that Brunt (the last person to die) can download Quark and start it all over again.

...that throughout the entire Deep Space Nine series, Quark has killed Jem'Hadar soldiers on three different occasions? (DS9: "The Jem'Hadar", "Sacrifice of Angels", "The Siege of AR-558")

...that Sito Jaxa, presumed killed in The Next Generation episode "Lower Decks", was at one point intended to turn up alive in an episode of Deep Space Nine? The proposed story would have found Sito in a Cardassian prison and would have climaxed with her killing her own cellmate.
