Leonardo Da Vinci, an artist, is "born"
on Earth this year (in reality
he is Flint the Immortal). As part
of his personality improvement
program, the "Voyager's" holographic doctor
will re-create Da Vinci on the
starship's holodeck in 2373. Much
later the same year, Captain Janeway
will seek Da Vinci's advice. The
artist's creativity will be an
inspiration to Janeway during her youth.
In 2374, Janeway will share an
adventure with Da Vinci, freed from the
holodeck by alien raiders who
steal the EMH's mobile emitter.

Captain Picard will have a copy of Shakespeare's
works on display in his
ready room. Various plays will be
recreated in the holodecks by Data and
Picard including 'Henry V,' and 'The Tempest'
(holodeck program Data 7-3).

with Shakespeare's 'Julius
Caesar' through Dr. Bashir. In 2373,

as early. In 2371, Commander Sisko

to Cardassia, thus proving
the Bajoran claim. The Cardassians
will confess to finding the ancient
remains of what corresponds to a Bajoran
sail vessel on their world
[DSN 468].

time. The ship's navigation
systems and automatic awakening systems
are sabotaged by the traitor Bikon
who makes his way back to Jibet in an
escape pod. Bikon will use the
Supreme Ruler's image to defeat the revolution

starship in history [DSN #14].
