i love how janeway slides in with a phaser rifle and just starts shooting, then tuvok, her chief of security, slides in behind her with a tiny handheld phaser, saying "hands on your heads"
like, good thing he's there, because janeway clearly didn't have the situation under control already 🤣🤣
Tuvok also didn't get any smoke for his ride down the chute lmao
I don’t have the actual documentary, just the Trekcore caps, so forgive me if I miss anything, and feel free to add on if you have more info!
A central conflict in Data’s design is how to make him look like he’s definitely a robot, but also a robot designed to look like a human. It’s definitely an interesting uncanny valley balance to strike. In the costumes tests, differences from the Data we know and love are all over the place!
This Data has lighter hair and eyebrows, especially at the hairline; show!Data’s wig is a more consistent color. Also, the contacts are slightly less green, and I think the pupils are smaller. And check out that blush!
His haircut is pretty similar, but it looks like the Sideburn Bible wasn’t solidified by this point, because the sideburns are a lot weaker. (This also could have something to do with the hair color.)
It also looks like the lip color was a question; I think the choice to just have his face all white was probably good, because it keeps his android-ness without making him feel super duper inhuman.
There also appears to have been a kinda cursed pink Data phase. Sorry for making you witness this. It’s in the name of journalism! (Hey, besides the cursedness, this picture is actually pretty cute.)
There are a bunch of these slightly spooky pictures with a yellow eye and an orange eye. Fairly sure this was not an intent of heterochromia, but rather just to test the look of two at the same time.

Thank you for journeying with me on this frightful journey through the land of contact lenses.
I’ve officially decided my favorite relationship trope is “at first I was perpetually bothered by your mere existence but somewhere along the way you became my best friend and oh yeah I’m also in love with you.” Nothing else matters.
Garak was late to lunch that day because he was building a bomb to destroy his shop. He was eating Delavian chocolates while he made it. He saw an assassin and knew for whom the bell tolled, but he still ate his chocolates, and he still went to lunch, just a little late. Because he was making a bomb to blow himself up with.
