This feels like a trick, the CSS with trek ARG is too obvious.

Cool, it does mean, it's ingame.

(I was about to begin with my doubts after seeng the background Smile)

Anyway, John Flamsteed...

Quote:
Flamsteed accurately calculated the solar eclipses of 1666 and 1668. He was responsible for several of the earliest recorded sightings of the planet Uranus, which he mistook for a star and catalogued as 34 Tauri. The first of these was in December, 1690, which remains the earliest known sighting of Uranus by an astronomer.


Johann Bayer wrote his Uranometria.

Are there something with Uranus in the Star Trek mythology?
