Star Trek Is Winding Down Just When We Need It Most

Star Trek turns 60 in 2026 just as TV production winds down. Why its optimistic vision of diversity, technology, AI and humanity’s future matters more than ever

It’s all about stories – but will there be a happy ending?

From AI to EVs to Apathy: The Stories Shaping (and Breaking) Our World

We live in a world of stories. Always have, always will. True stories, serious stories, funny stories, unbelievable stories, make-believe stories and fake stories.

We’re bombarded with stories from every side: the friend on the phone, the gossip on the grapevine, the bestseller on your Kindle, the news at 10 and the politician on the podium.
