The USS Voyager's FIRST Crew - Star Trek Explained
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 вер 2024
- The Crew of the Starship Voyager are perhaps some of the most famous individuals in Starfleet. Surviving and making the journey home through the Delta Quadrant certainly made some people legends. However, most of the USS Voyager’s senior staff, or rather the bridge crew, were not actually the original crew of the ship. But who were they?
In this Star Trek Explained video, we take a look at the ORIGINAL Crew of the USS Voyager. I’m talking about those people who filled positions of Chief Engineer and First Officer, before the initial journey to the Delta Quadrant killed them.

Title: The USS Voyager's FIRST Crew - Star Trek Explained
#STarTrek #USSVoyager #StarTrekExplained
RIP Patti Yasutake, who played Nurse Alyssa Ogawa on TNG.
What... NO!
I just Googled her. A few days ago (8/5), a rare form of lymphoma. Rest Well, Ms. Yasutake. Sending prayers.
Oh no!! 😭
she wasn't on voyager
“Brace for impact!”
*runs randomly across the bridge*
Hey, man, it's not his fault that he was sick during "Brace For Impact Training Day" at the academy.
Totally agree, not the brightest officer, it is probably better he didn't survive.
Yeah where was he hoping to make it to I wonder lol
If that Vulcan nurse was alive, she could've help Ensign Vorik with his pon farr.
Well there was a Vulcan woman in “Repression” too, who seemingly came out of nowhere as she wasn’t mentioned in “Counterpoint” or as you say, in “Blood Fever”. Tuvok did mention other Vulcans (suggesting at least two others besides himself) in “Flashback” though.
So could have Janeway 😜😜😜😜
I think it's funny how most of the crew is never even seen on the show. There's only a handful of people that get shown as background. Maybe 24 out of something like 180 people are the show. And the main 7 or 8 are all you ever really see.
Same of true of the Enterprise-D. Out of the roughly 1000 member crew plus civimians how many did we really see over 7 years of TNG?
@@vic5015 Actually we did see a lot, just not for very long. TNG went through ensign's like toilet paper 😭
@@vic5015 The thing about the Enterprise D is that they were in the Alpha Quadrant so people were probably transferring in and out all the time. Of course, you are correct in that 1000 crew members means that the same crew could've been there the entire run and we probably didn't see a quarter of them.
If you really think about it, because background actors are constantly changing, over the course of all the episodes, we probably did see the entire crew of voyager that survived and merged from the Maquis crew. Obviously, the only members of the original crew we saw were the people we saw on screen.
I think Janeway would have been a more interesting character if she’d started out as XO and Cavitt had been captain. Janeway has to take command when they reach the Delta Quadrant and we watch her grow into the role.
It wouild have made the character dynamic between her and Chakotay more interesting if they were the same rank in episode 1(Chakotay's rank before he left Starfleet I mean) perhaps Chakotay may have had a more experienced career like he was the first officer on a Galaxy class starship before he joined the Maquis making him a threat to Janeway in the early episodes of command being taken from her.
Like it!, maybe with a little added tension if it was instead Cavitt's idea to recruit Paris and Janeway didn't really like Tom because of her history/loyalty with Adm Paris and watching that redemption arc over the show as it was less visibly and almost forgotten between Paris/Chakotay
Com badges over the right nipple are making me do a double take 😂
Poor original doctor... fell prey to the dreaded exploding-console-rocks.
I saw that Armada 2 footage. Also, Cabbot was kinda stupid when the wave was approaching. Let's run instead of grabbing railing right in front of me.
Janeway says to brace for impact. Cabot decides to leap across the bridge instead.
The Caretaker novelization does a decent job of giving these characters some life if you get the chance to read it
Honestly, Cavot and the doctor seemed kind of one dimensional. It's like they were only there to show how much everyone hates Tom. Nothing about them really comes across as likeable on screen.
Granted, it is kinda hard (and probably pointless) to spend much time developing characters who will die in the first act of the pilot episode.
It was always amusing to me how quickly they forgot that the Caretaker flat out murdered a bunch of the crew when he yanked the ship.
And Janeway thought the best way to deal with this kidnapping, murdering, _rapist_ (don't forget that part) scumbag was to... honour his wishes.
Yeah I can see why Janeway became the scourge of the Delta Quadrant.
It wasn't so much that she wanted to honor his wishes as she didn't think she could live with herself if she sacrificed the entire population of Ocampa (such as it was) to get the ship home. Plus, if the array had fallen into Kazon hands, they would have eventually been able to use it to wreak havoc in the Delta Quadrant and beyond. (I say eventually because we know they'd have spent a few years killing each other over it, then once a sect had firmly seized control, their incompetence would have killed about half of them before they figured out how it worked.)
I am less interested in that Cardassian-Bajor alternate universe and more curious about how Voyager's initial adventures in the Delta Quadrant would have been different if different crew had survived/died.
great video, what is the name of the music in the background at 3:02?
First time I saw Voyager I had heard lots of the crew die in the first episode but when I saw Paris I thought "oh this guy has plot armor, he ain't going nowhere"
Jellico was an excellent officer. Starfleet is just full of wimps.
I wish they would have kept Lt Stadi She was pretty
Thank you for the great vid. I really like this channel. Tardis Central is great too.
Glad you enjoy it!
R.I.P Obi Ndefo who played drax on DS9 & the protector in voyager blink of an eye
In the two-part novel called "The Badlands", the portion featuring Voyager on its way to find the Val Jean, had them come across Gul Evek's damaged Cardassian cruiser. They rescued his crew and provided medical aid, but knowing the repercussions he would face from Central Command, Gul Evek committed ritual suicide on Voyager. In that segment, Voyager's doctor was named Dr. Bist, not Fitzgerald.
1:03 wow HD!
I always thought the first officer and the doctor resembled each other.
Harry Kim {aka Garrett Wang) The beginning of my Trek obsession.
Alicia Coppola. I remember her as Kari Wuhrer's not as good replacement on Remote Control.
Aside from the doctor we never really saw many science officers on voyager or anyone in teal for that matter
I've had this debate before about whether Voyager had a chief science officer. I say there had to be one that died and Janeway didn't have any that she felt had enough experience to appoint to the role. Samantha Wildman and the Delaney twins were all ensigns in the Science division. Samantha even went on an away mission once where she almost died. Seven seemed to fill the role of science officer later on though.
I've always wondered why Janeway picked her original command crew and exactly who they were. Basically, only Tuvok & Harry survived.
I'm still confused about how Voyager lost the entire medical staff. Surely, there was more than the doctor and a couple of nurses.
The size of Voyager's crew ranged around 150 people. The ship was supposed to be a shorter range science vessel with a shorter mission length. I assume that's why an EMH was installed on Voyager as a short term medical supplement. I assume this is why poor Harry Kim was forever stuck as an ensign on Voyager, there is just nowhere to get promoted.
I always wondered what they did to the dead crews bodies. Were they all stored onboard just incase voyager got home so the bodies could be repatriated?!
Standard protocol is placing the bodies in torpedo casings and firing them into space. We know that Lyndsay Ballards remains were found floating in space.
It's the Sci-Fi equivalent of burial at sea. I believe they also tend to aim for their home world so that symbolically the remains are taking their final journey back home.
B'Elanna was HOT.!!
I wonder if "Q" knew about the Caretaker? since the Caretaker brought USS Voyager to the Delta Quadrant......and "Q" mentions Humans were not supposed to be in the Delta Quadrent for another 100 years.
Always made me wonder what powered the conn console. If my computer exploded, I'd be mightly annoyed if it killed me. So much so, I'd have to write a strongly worded complaint with the manufacturer.
Was interesting as i recall the original members who were lost were in no way expanded upon, so i think you done more with this video than cannon did with these characters.
One video that may be good to do is a list of alternate versions of the ships, stations etc... Like briefly mentioned an alternate timeline with an alternate Voyager that had its original crew.
I explored this with a short "Legacy" episode i wrote. Summery is, Seven and the Enterprise G crew get a distress call, only to find its a battered Seven. When they arrive, they find its the USS Titian. Same ship but in that universe never had a name change. Aboard this battered version, Lt Commander Naomi Wildman is Seven's first officer. This Seven proffer's to use her human name over her borg designation. We find that the aggressors in that universe are the Bajoran's. This is because the universe which the Titan originates, although not mentioned in the story but i will mention it here as the author, is they originate from the Universe in Parallel's S7 TNG where a Bajoran ship gets aggressive with the Enterprise D (being YT friendly). I expand on it as the Bajorans of this universe worship the Parwraiths. Titian, Enterprise and a Odyssey Class Enterprise F under the command of Captain Harry Kim, Engage over the course of the story and two battles, 4 Bajoran ships, three are thrown back through the quantum rift and 1 is destroyed. The head of this fleet was Kira Neryse (DS9) who's inhabited by a Par wraith. Naomi takes a liking and makes a similar Paris type pass on Jack because he's a bad boy so to speak. She doesn't like him at first however. He rejects her and tells her he's already taken (Sydney LaForge). The Titan and Enterprise F return to their universe and the Enterprise G collapses the rift. Naomi sends a private message to Jack's station saying something to the effect of that Sydney is lucky to have Jack.
i like a video about Voyager's Equinox crew member , they were like just disappear after the Equinox 2 part episode , when Voyager return home , the crew were heroes but what about the survivors of Equinox ? did they get warm welcome , or did they get court martial for their crime in Delta Quadrant , or did the Voyager crew kept contact with them , did they get invited to Voyager reunion party ?
I don’t understand why footage of crew is mirrored when claimed to be original footage 😮 your a respectable channel don’t let me down 😮
That is to get around the overly-stringent copyright system on UA-cam.
This is to counter the copyright system that UA-cam lets Paramount abuse ;) we are not letting anyone down. More obeying fair use and trying to present a good video!

@@TrekCentral thanks for the explanation (my eyes open 👀) I withdraw my statement humbly big love to you guys @TrekCemtral
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Keep this up we need to know about enterprise D crew
We could do a video like that :D
If you wanted to, you could do a similar video just on all the different versions of Harry Kim. Alternate time lines, and the one that replaced the original during that two-voyager episode.
Seems that disliking Paris is fatal
It seems that the ones who died were the ones that didn't like Tom Paris...
I regard Voyager's original crew the same way I do Kirk's original crew in "Where No Man Has Gone Before"--interesting, but not the crew we were destined to know and love.
Wasn't the first crew of Voyager, the cast of Frasier?
Take care, and all the best.
🖖
I wonder how the pilot level certificate works is it lower number the better or higher number the better?
Everyone of the original crew who was honest about their feelings towards Paris, was killed off. Funny how the most annoying pilot in Star Fleet and his Admiral Dad pulled that one off.
I wonder where they put all the bodies...
👀👀
They would have shot them into Space.
Dim the guy who played voyagers original chief medical officer also play of adjourn in Star Trek also and is it me or does he also look like that adjourn lower decks guy in Star Trek Voyager
Was kind of disappointed onvCoppola not surviving
I hope they remake voyager with new actors ect, but this time keep all of the original crew for guest appearances during all of the alternate reality/timeline episodes. Imagine "Non Sequitur" starring someone other than Paris alongside Kim.
CMO name was Roga Danar the Vukcan Nurse had a twin sister on DS9
That wasn't Danar; just happened to be the same actor. Star Trek does that a lot. The Vulcan nurse's "twin sister" was also played by the same actress as the nurse.
@@KamenRiderGumo It was a joke, although I do like the twin sister theory.
You forgot one other that was actually named. The crew member from the episode with the species that uses other species corpses for reproduction. Ensign Lindsey Ballard was her name.
Why do the com badges keep swapping sides? I've never noticed that before.
A production gaff or trekcentral have mirrored some of the footage to get around copyright
@@stevenkaye9829 copy right issues
It's our way of escaping Paramount's over use of UA-cam's copyright system :)
No Seska?
This video focused mainly on the command crew of Voyager :) Seska was apart of the Val Jean
I wonder if Dr. Fitzgerald has a twin brother who was separated at birth and raised on Angosia III while Fitzgerald himself was raised on Earth.... 😁
Dr. Asshole
Didn't they also need to replace the chief astral navigationist specialist or was that astroglide lube analyst
How tf you know about what I was thinking 2 hours ago 😐
