Headline News for February, 2019

February 28, 2019. Finds, In 1996, on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of STAR TREK, the German television station Sat.1 invited its viewers to send their own or produced videos to the station. The best contributions, in the opinion of the editors, were broadcast in partly shortened form during the "Big STAR TREK night" as so-called "galactic greetings". Much of it was worth seeing, it was amusing, if unwittingly. It is also noteworthy that all contributions were made before Michael "Bully" Herbig's STAR TREK parody "Traumschiff".

The videos shown here are the ones shown at that time and we do not know any other details about them. If anyone can give us any information, we will gladly update our listing.
