    Star Trek Star Charts: The Complete Atlas of Star Trek by Geoffrey Mandel - Presentation Transcript

    1. Star Trek Star Charts: The Complete Atlas of Star Trek by Geoffrey Mandel Stellar Cartography all I ask is a tall ship, and a star to steer her by. From the earliest days of explorations, there has always been one tried-and-true way to navigate through uncharted reaches and one to find the way home -- the stars. Ancient mariners prized their star charts, knowing that they could guide them safely into a friendly port or lead them to the reaches of the mysterious East. Modes of transportation have changes but the stars are still our constant. When man took his first step into space armed with the very latest in computers, he took with him the same tool for reading the stars that the men who sailed under canvas carried. When humans launched the first ship designed for long-range missions into the deep waters of interstellar space, the Vulcan High Command provided their star charts for the Enterpriseā„¢. But Jonathan Archer was not content with relying on the known. Although he used the Vulcan charts, he also added to them, and greatly expanded Starfleets knowledge of the galaxy. Every generation of starship captain that followed has built on Archers first steps. Follow the course set by Archer, Kirk, Picard, Sisko, and Janeway. Relive
    2. their extraordinary adventures as you find here, for the first time, the star maps that chart the routes these famous explorers took. Personal Review: Star Trek Star Charts: The Complete Atlas of Star Trek by Geoffrey Mandel Star Trek Star Charts: The complete Atlas of Star Trek is a fantastic book. It is worth it to get this book, because it contains tons of information about the galaxy in Star Trek. From learning about planets and their characteristics to colorful, detailed maps and from learning about sectors to ship paths, this book is a great reference for any level of Star Trek fan. For the hardcore Star Trek fan it might be a little lacking. If you read the negative reviews you can see what I am saying, but judge for yourself. I consider myself a semi-hardcore fan, and I thought this book was excellent. I learned more about the star trek universe than I ever had before. I would have liked to seen a few maps of the political boundaries from the original show, because I think the maps are mostly from Enterprise and TNG, but use your imagination. I found so many things from the show on the maps that I got geeked up. So, for the less hardcore fan, I believe you will enjoy this book.
