Expectant Couple Edits Star Trek: The Next Generation Into an Adorable Baby Announcement

Sometimes it seems the real reason some people choose to have kids is so that they can pour all of their pre-baby time and energy into a big “hooray, we’re pregnant!” announcement. YouTuber Nokem came up with a simpler, but utterly fantastic approach that fans of Star Trek: TNG will wish they’d thought of.

They cleverly edited an episode called “Galaxy’s Child,” in which the Enterprise has to save an alien child, into a one-minute baby announcement, complete with a sonogram video superimposed onto the ship’s main viewscreen. There’s little doubt this baby’s destined to be wearing tiny Spock ears before its first birthday.

Definitely adorable, but it’s actually a clever editing of at least two episodes. “Galaxy’s Child” (s04e16) forms the basis for most of it, but there are bits of “Silicon Avatar” (S05e04) mixed in, evident by the presence of Dr. Kila Marr (present with Data at the rear of the bridge).
