The number of 47 can be found in this image

This project is to list and find citations for every conceivable reference to the 47 phenomenon in Star Trek. This means that pre-season 4 of TNG, and stardates that begin with 47 are NOT directly related to the in-joke, and should not be listed here. The project is broken down into four main sections: stand alone, string, separate, and mathematical; with a production section as a supplement. When referencing, linking to other pages beyond the episode is not important right now, but if you reference an image, please link to the image.

Stand alone[]

This section is for listing stand alone 47s. This means that the 47 is not directly part of a larger number, unless the entire number is made up of 47s and zeros. This would include:

  • Weapons locker 47 on DS9 (the image on the 47 page)
  • 47 7654 7839 (from the image at the top of the article, note the spacing)
  • 4747
  • 47 at the end of a string of zeros (0047)
  • 47 in a string of zeros (0740)
  • 47s in a stardate that are after the point (XXXXX.47)
