They'd only been in one episode before, only Q's intervention saving the Enterprise. The scenes discussing the threat reminded us how powerful they were, so Picard's simple statement: 'we have engaged the Borg', coupled with an amazing score, make this moment land hard. #StarTrek60 #TrekMoments

OK, it's not referred to as 'The Motionless Picture' for nothing. The entire first view of the refit Enterprise takes over six dialogue-free minutes to play out, but the moment we get the first head-on sight of it and Jerry Goldsmith's theme bursts in is a wonderful moment. #StarTrek60 #TrekMoments

That they chose to deliver the news of Lal's imminent death via a character introduced as another antagonist who threatened Picard's command, and show him so obviously deeply affected by the experience of witnessing Data trying to save her, was incredibly effective/ #StarTrek60 #TrekMoments

Another Trek moment: I remember watching 'Year of Hell' with friends as a teenager and we were all stunned when the deck 5 blowout occurred, leaving a huge gash in the hull of the ship that remained for the rest of the two parts. #StarTrek60 #TrekMoments

Another great Trek moment, seen on the big screen just a few days ago, and still the best use of the 'drop the cloak to surprise the enemy' move in the whole run if you ask me! #StarTrek60 #TrekMoments

Another favourite Trek moment, this time from the very first episode of DS9 as Sisko (and the viewer) comes to realise that human existence isn't as linear as we thought... #StarTrek60 #TrekMoments

So with Star Trek's 60th on us I thought I'd post some random moments I love from across the various series. Not sure how many I'll do but I'm going to start with the saucer separation from 'Encounter at Farpoint'. They really went all out showcasing this new capability. #StarTrek60 #TrekMoments

Well, it's Star Trek Day, which means it's 60 years ago today that people in America first heard the iconic 'Space, the final frontier' speech, heard that gorgeous theme, met some characters who would become legendary, and saw probably the best fictional spaceship ever. #StarTrek60 #TrekMoments
