"To better ourselves" - Star Trek The Next Generation Tribute

[@danielhaire6677]

Star Trek: Through my life, it has taught me so much Kirk taught me physical courage in the face of danger Spock taught me to analyze the world logically McCoy taught me to balance that logic with compassion Picard taught me to show moral courage even when the whole world was against me Crusher taught me to care more than might be safe Sisko taught me to make tough calls Data taught me to constantly move forward towards even the most unattainable goals Worf showed me to balance strength with honor Ro taught me that redemption is possible if one falls And through it all, I learned that all life deserves respect because it is precious.

Janeway taught me to never, ever give up.

[@cameron120587]

@@davidfernandobacquerieestr4940 I would say diplomat rather than pacifist. When the shit hits the fan, Picard is not above standing up to an aggressor or using force.

This is going to sound absolutely stupid, but Wesley taught me even when the world seems against you because you’re younger, that doesn’t make you inferior.

[@ShadowStoryteller]

This is not just a tribute to a television show. This could be one of humanity's magnum opus moments. This show, warts and all, contains within a message we have surely forgotten: we are better working together then apart. When we as a species finally realize that we can do more despite, not because of, our differences...we can almost literally move mountains and part oceans. The message missing from us at this moment in time: we can be better even with our flaws. We can manage our dark impulses with more then just wealth or religion or power. We can even learn, if we just stop for one moment and listen to our fellow man instead of summary judgment blocking us from knowing both sides of the story.

[@KerstinMamma]

Which is why you listened to vegans and became a vegan yourself just like in Star Trek?

[@thenullhypothesis6179]

I think your statement is slightly wrong. When we work together we become the total sum of our individual strengths, and others make up for our individual weaknesses. It is not despite our differences, it’s our differences that make us able to complete the pattern.

This is the first TNG tribute video that really captured the essence of TNG's appeal: the gentle humanism, the wisdom, and inspirational quality. GREAT JOB.

[@O1OO1O1]

There's another good video, entitled, "the vision of Star Trek, a video essay"

[@anaconda470]

I had the scariest and darkest time in my life. When all was falling apart, just by accident (?) KZbin showed me this video. I cried, I do it almost every time when I'm watching it. You gave me strength, resilience and filled me with hope. This is the most beautiful message for the Humankind. Thank you so much 🖖🏻🌈☀️❤️

[@lindleya]

This dude casually drops 2 of the best Star Trek tribute videos in existence like it's nothing.

[@BrightOranje]

30 years later this is still the best TV show i've ever seen. A show that taught compassion, optimism, and teamwork - real world values we should all strive to live by. The writing and characters were top-notch, and it explored philosophy and human nature beautifully. Most modern TV shows (including the newer Trek stuff) will never hold a candle to it.

[@roguestar8]

When Picard says "I would trust each of you with my life" it's so sincere and true because there's 7 seasons that prove it. Each member of the crew of the Enterprise has immense respect and admiration for Picard and he gives them the same respect and admiration in return.

[@vfta7906]

There has never been anything quite like Star Trek, my youth moulded, attitude shaped and imagination inspired. I long for this world.

[@mikep1592]

Humanity has such potential, if we could only tap into ourselves to truly be something more than what we have been lead to believe. I have been watching Star Trek for 50 years and still desire to see mankind become more like what we see in all the Star Trek series. Working as one, no borders, no wars, no boundaries, everyone using their resources together to improve humanity rather than destroying itself. Hopefully someday we will get there. 🖖

[@mngentry]

I tell people all the time that humanity is biggest resource of untapped potential there's ever been... They usually think I'm a crazy idealist...and they may be right...but that doesn't me I'M wrong. LLAP ;)

[@1978rharris]

It’s not so much what “they do to Star Trek”.......It will always change and evolve. But you’re right that we will always have TNG.....and we must have all been good boys and girls because it’s coming back in the form of the new Picard series. I will guarantee you that we’ll see most of these characters again.

[@Gunnar001]

Rob In no way would I call the garbage that Trek has been reduced to “evolving.” I can assure you that the new Picard series is going to be the same dumbed down action schlock crap as the JJverse films and the recent STD abomination. Another once great franchise down in flames...

[@toromothy]

Billyboyjennings i agree that start trek has got worse however i think STD is a good series, but not a good star trek series. If you get what i mean

I have seen hundreds of TNG tribute videos, but this one stands head and shoulders above them all. At least, for me. I share the sentiments in the other comments about how much we needed this video. I am going though a rough time right now---job loss, therapy, loneliness---and this video is giving me hope. Thank you so much. I mean that.

[@LukeLovesRose]

I remember hearing about the backlash over this masterpiece of a TV series. No one wanted to accept this new ship and new crew. But TNG adventures and crew finally won us over around Season 3. And boy, the end of that season packed a wallop. It literally became the greatest TV cliffhanger in history

[@StinkyGuff]

I love all of Star Trek, but I will always feel the closet to the TNG crew, what a great bunch of people. In character, and in real life.

[@milestaylor-charlemagne6311]

TNG introduced me to Star Trek as a whole! During the first lockdown, I watched all 7 seasons, all 4 films and the spin-off series Picard! TNG is my Star Trek and this tribute really captured everything of that crew. Truly heart-warming! Good job pal!

[@pentagrambinoculars3545]

I NEEDED THIS WAY MORE THAN I THOUGHT I DID

[@voedric6435]

Star Trek captures the human spirit in film, moreso than any piece of cinema I've ever experience before. TNG specifically. You know, before I actually sat down and watched Star Trek...I always assumed I would never like it, but it's probably one of the most important pieces of human cinema to ever be made. It captures in perfection, what we want to be, what we strive to be, and what I hope we will be some day; even if my great grand-children are the ones that see it and not I.

Just in case you guys haven't seen it, watch "For All Mankind," written by Ronald D. Moore. It could almost be a Star Trek prequel series and it alone is worth an Apple TV subscription!

[@daniellanctot6548]

I don't care what both fans and non-fans of Star Trek say: THIS is what Star Trek always was suppose to be. THIS is why TNG was the BEST of what Star Trek ever was. And whenever any iteration of Star Trek failed, the root of their failure can be traced back to them forgetting to be just this! 👏👏👏💯❤👍👍 Magnificently done!

Gene Roddenberry would be very proud of you! Makes me tear up every time.

[@Infy808]

this is the kindest, most inspiring and warm video that I have seen 💛💛💛

[@Flightdevildoc]

It is obvious that the work of Gene Roddenberry, continues on, inspiring many lives to be better, re-shaping and many times, making us reflect about ourselves and others. I believe, that is what he wanted, for all of us to see that potential, and to inspire to it. Star Trek made a difference in many people lives, including mine, as I was motivated to study computer engineering and then medicine. But it also made me think more about life itself, and to cherish moments with the ones love, family, friends, and the community, as well as always strives to better myself. Of all the TV shows. I have seen, Star Trek has been the most inspiring and fun. My teenage kids love it, that tells you how good that is that still in 2020, some young minds are attracted to it. Just look at the comment themselves, that tells how much this program meant to many, and will continue to do so. “Let’s make it so”.
