Star Trek Discovery vs The Orville: Which is the better Star Trek series? A comparison followed by a discussion.

Since the end of Star Trek: Enterprise it has been quiet around Star Trek in TV format for several years. At the end of 2017, two new space series were launched almost simultaneously, with those responsible for earlier series participating: Star Trek Discovery and The Orville.

As is usual in the fan-scene, the opinions went far apart. One faction believes that Star Trek Discover Star Trek has only the title and The Orville Star Trek at heart, for others Star Trek Discovery is the best Star Trek series ever. Robert Vogel compares the two successful series and asks the audience in the following discussion which is now the “better” Star Trek series. Let’s go!

Lecturer: Robert Vogel

Duration: 55 min - The Lecture will be held in: german

Robert Vogel writes as a freelance journalist for German and international trade magazines and has been active in the scene since 1973. He gives lectures on all areas of fantasy at 20 or more fantasy events a year. He likes to visit the shooting of fantastic films and series and occasionally (if you let him) acts as an extra in front of the camera.

Since 2003 Robert has also frequently participated in events organised by the European Space Agency ESA. Thus he experienced the landing of the HUYGENS probe on the Jupiter moon Titan as one of the few registered journalists live in the space center ESOC and followed the ROSETTA comet mission from the very beginning. He has already met several NASA and ESA astronauts and is diligently building a bridge between science fiction and real space travel.

Despite his great enthusiasm for fantasy and astronomy/space travel Robert Vogel also has time for other interests: he loves the music of the 60s, likes to go dancing and likes the company of nice people. His great weakness is pasta dishes.
