In this episode of Conversations on Anarres, we speak with New York Times Best Selling author, Dr. Una McCormack. She has written over twenty science fiction novels, many of which are franchise novels that tie into the Star Trek, Firefly, and Dr. Who universes. We talk about how she prepares for writing her work and why she appreciates science fiction.
Dr. McCormack, however, has a deep appreciation for the Star Trek Universe. We discuss what makes this franchise so important in terms of the values it holds up as important for the future of humanity. Star Trek has always portrayed a hopeful vision of the future grounded in diversity, cooperation, and reason. We talk about why these matter and how they help us to analyze the world in which we live today.
We also discuss how the third era of Star Trek, NuTrek, continues to uphold these kinds of values through the series of Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks, Prodigy, and Strange New Worlds.
