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
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.
