Background information[]
- The cover by Marty Miller is a homage to the cover art by John Knoll and Mikido Uesugi, used for the 1995 The Art of Star Trek reference book, one of the very first, if not the very first, of its kind for the Star Trek franchise.
- Similarly, the October spread from Mandel is a clear homage to Matt Jefferies' size-comparison art, used as computer display graphics in Star Trek: The Original Series.
- The hitherto apocryphal USS Enterprise-F from the September spread became canon in February 2023 when it turned up as such in the third season premiere "The Next Generation" episode of Star Trek: Picard.
