When you mentioned “What you leave behind” and all the people that were there that I didn’t know about, all I can say is that this series ending was the most heartfelt ending of any Star Trek series.

Fun Fact about the Klingons in ST:TMP They were originally going to have a NEW ship, the D-10, which had the D-7 command pod but had a much beefier main hull and engine nacelles that were more tucked in on shorter wing struts. Because of the new makeup on the Klingons, though, it was decided to go with the D-7M (K'T'inga) for the sake of continuity. A former friend of mine, at an auction, actually purchased the ACTUAL D-10 model that Paramount was going to use! It was 3 feet long, had fully functional lights, and still had its mounting points supposedly for use in a blue screen filming gantry.

John Larroquette in Star Trek III The Search for Spock

[@MrAndyBearJr]

Before he ascended to the throne of Jordan, King Abdullah II, had a bit part nonspeaking role in Star Trek The Next Generation. It is just a fleeting part where he is supposed to be finishing a conversation with Geordi as other characters come up on them. He is a big Trek fan.

Adam Scott wasn’t a cameo as he wasn’t famous at the time. He was a young actor cast in a big budget movie. He just happened to be a big sci-fi fan and became famous later on.

i believe there was James Horner in Star Trek 2, leading up to the battle with the Reliant in the Mutara Nebula, he was a member of the crew of the Enterprise

Wil Wheaton in Star Trek 2009 is a voiceover for a Romulan when Nero orders that Spock’s ship be destroyed , Wheaton is the Romulan voice (not actor) you hear say “but sir if we fire and ignite the red matter the ship will ….” Nero interrupts saying I want Spock dead now !

Well done! Several new cameos to me!
