Welcome to Star Trek Minutiae!
It’s all in the details! This site tries to venture where few have gone before. Starting with obscure references and little-known facts, we explore and expand the wondrous multiverse of Star Trek . From the complete history of the Earth-Romulan War to The Voyager Coronary , the funniest parody in existence, we put the “minute” in minutiae!
minutiae (pronounced mĭ-no͞oˈshē-ə) — the small, precise, or trivial details of something.
Site Update: March 26, 2018
It’s not exactly content for Star Trek Minutiae, but I recently finished a huge project: The Starfleet Museum: The Print Edition . It’s a 286-page, full-color book with (almost) every article from Masao Okazaki’s Starfleet Museum . It’s available to order from Lulu.com (for the cost of printing, with no profit markup). I also have a short summary of how the book developed over the years .
