The UFP banner, as it first appeared in 1968 in #StarTrekTOS' "And the Children Shall Lead"➡️, was re-used as it is (yellow UFP, slightly curved) only once, 55 years later, in #StarTrekPicard's "The Bounty"⬅️ in 2023. Let's look at the other versions of this emblem, shall we? 1/9

In 1975, the Star Fleet Technical Manual by Franz Joseph introduced an angular, slightly slimmer version of this emblem. It also introduced that the letters "UFP" and the 13 stars are supposed to be uniformly silver (and not yellow and white respectively) on a red background. 2/9 Image

For reasons, here's the 101 on Bajoran nose wrinkles. 😅
In "Ensign Ro"↖️↗️ and very early #StarTrekDS9 episodes↙️↘️, the Bajoran make-up was still a little more complicated and featured additional brow ridges. Keeve Falor, the Bajoran girl, Tahna Los and Zayna all have them. None of the later #StarTrekDS9 (Vedek Winn ↖️, Shakaar ↗️) and #StarTrekVOY (Gerron ↙️, Tal Celes ↘️) Bajorans have these brow ridges, however. The make-up was simplified very early on DS9, maybe to speed up the make-up application with so many Bajoran extras.

1/7 I found something cool a few days ago that cheered me up so I'm posting this now, you can never have enough cheering up, right? :-)
In "The battle", Picard's quarters are seen for the first time. In one of the shelves, you can see several books, including a 6-volume set of... Image 2/7 ...brown books with a red rectangle on the spine on which the name of the book is written in golden letters. I haven't been able to identify the books yet, but they are no longer seen in Picard's quarters in "Angel One" or "Where silence has lease".
