Very nice touch to have the real Shatner re-record the intro for today.

Online Chris Bergin

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! NICE!!

Now it's the OST of Star Trek, but William Shatner's done a voice over and changed it to "These are the voyages of.....Discovery"

Was wondering why the PAOs were getting all excited about the surprise, when we all knew it was the OST of ST.

Fair play, that was nice to get Shantner to revoice it. A good surprise.

Interestingly, the Star Trek theme came second in the voting.

Never heard of Big Head Todd, but it's a decent good song.



Magic Carpet Ride would have been good. Enter Sandman would have been awesome. Learn To Fly by the Foo Fighters would be my personal favorite (came 19th).

Heh - everyone keep an eye on this getting published and link it up!

Put me down for 10 that it's something to do with Da Vinci Code and the hidden message of random fruit selections on the ISS FCR FD console ;)

Nice touch, will see what we can grab when they lose Ku.


...but for now. Looks like Discovery's having a farewell chat with HTV-2.
