Vulcans in Canberra

11 December 2006 | johnboy

Some of you will be pleased to learn that Canberra has an entry on the Star Trek fan’s wikipedia, Memory Alpha.

“Canberra is the capital city of the nation of Australia, on Earth.

In the mid 22nd century, the Vulcans maintained a consulate in Canberra. (ENT:”Terra Prime”)

It’s not much but it beats “Mostly Harmless”.

I was referring to the site’s place within the community, rather than the technology used to implement it.

Just a small point, the website is a ‘wiki’, not a ‘wikipedia’. Wikipedia is a specific website, that happens to use a Wiki format.

Having watched the episode (yes, I am a huge geek, why do you ask?), it was pronounced the American way, Can-Berra, rather than the australian way, Canbra.
