March 24th, 2019
The Episodes & Movies section of the site is currently under going a significant update, starting with the Star Trek: Discovery section. The change? High-Defintion screen captures from every episode. And not just a couple random images but dozens upon dozen of screen captures from every episode. I'm currently back-filling all of Season 1 with hundreds of images, while keeping up with Season 2 each week. Eventually, once both seasons of Discovery have been updated, I will be going back to the beginning - with TOS - and creating all-new pages for every episode where complete details (cast, summary, etc.) will be housed alongside the the collection of screen captures. And then, we'll move on to every series and movie.
Obviously a change of this magnitude will take time to complete, but it'll be worth it in the end. And, of course, numerous updates to the Blueprints section of the site are continuing on almost a weekly basis.
Enjoy-

Despite not recently listing updates to this page, there have been plenty of updates and changes to the site. I've continued to post detailed episode summaries from the second season of Discovery which now include dozens of HD screen captures, detailed episode summaries, episode posters, and more. See all of the Season 2 information HERE.
I've also secured dozens of new blueprints and technical manuals which will make their way on to the site throughout the next few months. Keep an eye on changes by accessing the Blueprints Updates page.
I'm also still working, when time permits, to bring the Book dB up to date. More to come...

-John
November 28th, 2017

September 14th, 2017
With the impending launch of the new series STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, I've begun to incorporate (yet another) new layout to the website. This streamlined layout will be far more responsive and mobile-friendly. At this time, the changes have been incorporated to all of the Episode Pages. Conversion of the Book and Blueprints pages will begin shortly.
Additionally, I've created the initial Episode List page for Star Trek: Discovery, which can be accessed HERE. Individual episode pages will be created each week as the series progresses through its first season...and beyond.
Enjoy the new look, everyone. Live long...

September 1st, 2016
"A whole new approach..." With Star Trek celebrating its 50th anniversary, and this site going along for the ride for the past twelve of those 50 years, I decided - at long last - to refresh the look and feel of the site. Gone is the outdated and inconsistent LCARS approach (though I will remember it fondly). I've now incorporated a more streamline - and page-consistent - layout to the site.
Since the Star Trek side of Cygnus-X1.Net is made up of over 500 individual pages, the site design will be rolled out in phases. The entire Episodes database has been completed, while the primary book and blueprints index sections are online as well. I hope to have the remaining pages completed within the next month or so. But the layout isn't the only change to the site.
We'll obviously have a section for the new series, Star Trek: Discovery, where episode listings, synopsis, reviews, and user comments will be made available. I also plan to begin updates on the Book database as well. And, of course, updates to the Blueprints section will continue as much as possible.
I hope you enjoy the new looks. Live long...

Just a quick note to point out that Cygnus-X1.Net is now fully connected and integrated with both Facebook and Twitter. Most pages throughout the site, along with many news and update items, will have both Facebook 'Like/Recommend' buttons along with a Twitter 'Tweet' button. In addition, you can now follow along with all site news, updates and more via the official Cygnus-X1.Net Facebook Group and Twitter Feed. Thanks for everyone's support in extending the reach of Cygnus-X1.Net beyond the confines of the home url :)

Hello again, everyone. Yes, I'm back. Actually, I never left but I did decide at the beginning of the year to take a modest sabbatical from the Star Trek section of the site.
But while I haven't been posting updates, I've been working in the background to prepare a record number of updates -- and hopefully not just to the Blueprints section of the site. That's right - it's time for changes to the Book database as well!
In any case, I wanted to reach out and let you all know that your patience is about to be rewarded...Updates are just around the corner...
-John
January 11th, 2010
Happy New Years, Everyone! Unfortunately these past few months have been somewhat difficult as I've been recovering from a major computer crash where a lot of the new work on the site was lost, hence the lack of updates over the past couple of months. But I'm almost back to 100% which means new updates will be arriving soon. Thanks for your patience and patronage to the site. Enjoy 2010!

May 8th, 2009
As today is the official release of feature film "Star Trek" (XI), I've added a synopsis and comment section of the movie in the Episodes/Movies section of the site. I hope you take the time to add your own comment about the film. I'll be adding my own review of the film once I digest it a little more.
In other news, I'd like to thank all of you who voted for this site in the Annual Starbase Adran Omega Award poll. It was with your help that Cygnus-X1.Net took home the 2009 Omega Award! So thank you for all who voted for the nice. It means a lot to me, especially considering the caliber of sites who were also in the running.
Finally, and also in connection with the release of "Star Trek" today, I plan on posting updates to the Blueprints section of the site weekly for the next 2 months (if not more). The first update will go up later this weekend and will contain the first schematics of the new Enterprise - so stay tuned.
Enjoy the movie, everyone...
-John
February 22nd, 2009
Greetings, everyone. It's been a while since I posted an update to this "updates" section of the site, even though I've been making some small changes over the months. However today's update to the Star Trek Blueprints section of the site is worthy of mention here. I've just completed modifying and uploading the first set of Interactive Enterprise Deck Plans. These plans, which are based upon the research and published works of Franz Joseph and designed by Lawrence Miller gives you an interactive, deck-by-deck guide of the original U.S.S. Enterprise.
In other news, the site won another award last September and is in the running for the Starbase Adran Omega Award for 2009 (see: LINK).
Finally, in connection with the upcoming Star Trek movie, I'll be making additional enhancements to the site leading up to the movie's premiere. I hope you enjoy the updates.

June 1st, 2008
Today marks the 4th anniversary of the Cygnus-X1.Net site. It's somewhat hard to believe at how quickly these past four years have gone by and how much the site has evolved over that period. It went from a small site which housed some pictures of my family and a mini-personal blog and grew into an enormous resource for Star Trek and Rush fans alike. So, here we are: 4 years, 1.5 million visitors and 7 million page views later and still going strong.
As many of you know, this past year was among the most difficult for the site as well. It suffered not one, but two massive attacks back in April which infected each and every page of the site with MalWare. Subsequently, many visitors to the site during that period were also attacked with the MalWare infection. I spent days restoring the site and plugging the hole which caused the security breach in the first place. During that time, I seriously considered shutting down the site permanently. The attack was that discouraging to me.
But through the kindness and encouragement of many visitors and fellow webmasters, I stayed the course, got the site up and running and now I'm happy that we're entering our 5th year of service. There's still some fall-out from the attack, most notably the lack of family pictures on the site. But I am working that issue and hope to have it resolved shortly.
In the mean time, I want to thank each and every one of you for your support over the past 4 years. I'm glad you've all found something worthwhile in this little corner of the internet. Thank you all and on to Year #5
-John
April 21st, 2008
Greetings everyone. I wanted to take a moment out to inform you of a situation which arose last week. On or about April 13th, this site was viciously attacked with MalWare. Every HTML and PHP page on Cygnus-X1.Net was infected. After the infection occurred, many visitors to the site were also infected with this MalWare. Shortly thereafter, Google blacklisted Cygnus-X1.Net which effectively cut off over half of the visitors to the site. Over the next day, I feverishly worked to restore the site, cleaning every page and file of the infection - no small task I assure you. I then spent time identifying how this attack occurred in the first place to insure it wouldn't happen again. As it turns out, a security flaw in my installation of Coppermine Photo Gallery allowed the attackers to perform this act. I updated my copy of Coppermine to the latest version available and, shortly thereafter, the site was attacked again, albeit not as successfully as the first time. That attack was also permitted by continued security flaws in Coppermine which has now led me to remove that script altogether.
I want to apologize to any visitors who were impacted by this attack. It pained me to think that some of you may have contracted a virus or trojan as a direct result of browsing my site. Because of that, I seriously considered throwing in the towel and taking down the site permanently. I would rather throw away 4 years of work then provide an outlet for infecting other computers. Fortunately, with the assistance of my service provider, the help of Geek Squad, and the support of many visitors, most notably David Bradley, I've decided to keep Cygnus-X1.Net going. The site is absolutely clean of any viruses, trojans and/or MalWares and I will no longer install any scripts that may allow for such an attack in the future.
Again, my sincerest apologies to all of you who were impacted by this unfortunate event. Look for updates, news and other additions to the site to resume immediately.
Thanks for your support, everyone.
-John
February 15th, 2008
Thanks to many of you who have been emailing me and wondering when the site will get its next round of updates :) Glad to know that there are those out there who enjoy this site. So, I do have to apologize for the sparse activity on the site over the past couple of months. With the holidays and life in general taking up most of my free time, it's been difficult to find the time to get some "site" work done.
Rest assured that I'm still collecting Star Trek books and will have a massive update made to that section of the site soon. I'm also preparing to join the Star Trek XI Movie webmasters association so as to offer up some great content on the upcoming Star Trek XI movie. Finally, I have plenty of more blueprint updates coming as well...assuming my scanner is up to the task. Again, thanks for everyone's patience - and look for updates in the very near future.
-John
June 1st, 2007
My apologies for the lack of updates to the Books and Episode section of the site. Most of my time, as many of you know, has been spent on updating the Blueprints section of the site, which has its own dedicated "Update" page. I do have many new books and new information to add to both the Books and Episodes sections, and I'll get to them in short order.
In other news, today, June 1st, marks the 3rd anniversary of Cygnus-X1.Net. In three years, the site has received over 860,000 visitors and 4 million page views. My sincere thanks to all of you for making the site a success over the years.
-John
December 10th, 2006
Hard to believe how time flies. In a blink of an eye, the summer and fall of 2006 shot by. Most of my 'site' attention over the past few months has been dedicated to the Rush section of Cygnus-X1 as I went through a complete overhaul of that section. Now that it is complete, I can turn my attention back to the Star Trek side of the equation. Work has begun on the scanning of many new blueprints, and nearly two dozen new books are in the process of being added to the main database. I'll probably wait until after the holidays before posting the books since I tend to receive a plethora of Amazon gift certificates during the holidays which, of course, translates into Star Trek books :) But some additons to the blueprints site will take place in the very near future.
Actually, some changes to the Gilso Schematics has just been made. The illustrator of the DY-100 Series (Botany Bay) prints, Kevin Willcocks, recently contacted me about his drawings. He indicated that there were some updates to several sheets that he wanted to share. So thanks to Kevin for providing the updates which appear exclusively on this site.
Until the next update, Happy Holidays, all.
-John
July 31st, 2006
Just a quick update this time around. A few new blueprints have been scanned and uploaded which are "outside" the norm so to speak. The Vulcan Harp Construction Plans and the Deep Space Nine Concept Drawings and Blueprints aren't exactly Starship drawings, but they do fall under the broader spectrum of 'Star Trek Blueprints'. More scans will be coming in the next few weeks with a special appearance for the first time anywhere of the Constellation-Class blueprints (i.e. the Stargazer)
I've also added a new section to the books database which lists all all new and future Star Trek books that are being published. Links to Amazon are available for each title which will provide you with additional information on the titles as well as ordering and pre-ordering instructions. Remember, clicking through to Amazon from anywhere on Cygnus-X1.Net helps to support our operations.
That's it now. As always, thanks for stopping by.
-John
July 14th, 2006
As the hot summer months descend upon us, I thought it a prime time to settle in on another update. First things first: In the Books section, you'll now notice a new categorization method which will hopefully make it easier for you to find the title and/or type of book that you're looking for. I'm also slowly working on adding in the Publisher information for every book - but this will take some time. I've added another 15 titles to the database, bringing the total number of books online to 1,389. See the list of new books below.
In the Episodes Database, full user-comments capabilities have been added so please do make use of them.
The Blueprints section of the site is about to see some new scans shortly, and some adjustments to existing scans. Some of you may have noticed the changes on the official Star Trek Blueprints, The Star Trek: The Motion Picture Blueprints and The Star Trek: The Next Generation Blueprints pages. At the request of Paramount and CBS Studios (the owners of Star Trek), I was asked to remove the links to the high-resolution scans. But I'm hoping to re-introduce altered scans in the future that satisfy both Paramount and you, the user.
That's all for now. Enjoy the summer...

In that time, the site has received over 325,000 visitors, displayed over 1.7 millions pages of data and has transferred well over a terrabyte of data.

For those of us in the U.S.A., today is tax day. So what better way to celebrate it than getting out another update to the site. Actually, those of you who follow the exploits of this site, particularly the blueprints section, have seen a flurry of activity over the past couple of weeks. With over 650 blueprint sheets online (with more to come), it may be the largest single-source of Star Trek Blueprints and Schematics anywhere on the net.
And since I constantly (and appreciately) receive emails from many of you requesting that I scan certain sets "next", I've set up a poll in the Message Forums where you can vote on which of the remaining blueprint sets gets scanned in next. I'll let the poll continually run until the remaining blueprint sets are all scanned in for your viewing pleasure.
And don't forget, interactive comments are available on every book and every blueprint set, so please feel free to post your comments and/or thoughts as much as you wish.
The Books section of the dB has been updated with 14 more entries, bringing the total up to 1,374. The new additions are listed below which include some very interesting technical manuals.
That's all for now. As always, thanks for stopping by.

Greetings again, everyone. There's been some exciting changes to the site over the past couple of weeks. In an attempt to add value to the data listed, I've decided to install an interactive comments section for every book, episode and blueprint that appears on the site. Now you, the user, can add in your own comments on every individual item that appears. At this point, all the books and scanned blueprints have comments installed. I'll be working on adding comments to each individual episode as well. It's my hope that, with this new feature, the site will become more interactive between users and additional content that I may not cover on any particular item can now be updated with your information. You don't need an account to enter in comments, and there's no limit to the number of comments you can post, so please take advantage of the system and add whatever relevant comments you see fit.
I've also add 4 more books/blueprints to the site since the last update, and I've added a few more scanned blueprints to the Blueprints section of the site.
That's it for now. Again, please take advantage of the interactive comments system. Thanks.

Happy New Year Everyone! Apologies for the lack of updates to the site over the past couple of months. But that's about to change. I'm putting the finishing touches on adding over 30 new books to the Books Database and I'm about to make a major update to the Blueprints Database section of the site.
The new books should be online within the next week and new blueprints fill follow shortly after that. Finally, when time permits, I'll be revisiting the episode guide and entering in some additional reviews on various episodes from all the series.
Thanks for your patience - and for visiting.
-John
September 10th, 2005
The latest update to the site, which has been on-going for the past month, is fairly sizeable. First off, I've added some 52 more "books" to the main database, bringing the grand total online to a whopping 1,308. However the vast majority of these new additions are blueprints, so I do use the term "books" somewhat loosely.
And speaking of Blueprints, the new Blueprints Database section has been a tremendous success. Visitors the world over have been viewing them and leaving me very flattering emails. It's nice to know the work I put into this site is appreciated. Look for many more blueprints to hit that section in the coming weeks and months.
As promised earlier this year, links to purchase nearly every book listed are now available for Amazon.Com (which is the preferred method as any purchases made via those links supports this site), Abebooks.Com and Bookfinder.Com. So if you find a book you like on this site, chances are you'll be able to make a copy your very own.
In other news, episode details on Enterprise's fourth season have been significantly expanded and I plan beginning the reviewing process of the first three seasons in the near future.
In other news, this site recently received two more awards of recognition from Adge's UK LCARS site and the extremely prestigious Award of Excellence from TrekPulse. Check out the awards section of this site for more information on both of these awards.
Finally, please visit the message forums and considering joining and posting. We're trying to get a nice community going. Plus, the next big Star Trek Book giveaway will be offered up to members first - all the more reason to join and post.
That's about it this time around. A list of the 52 new additions is below. Enjoy all.

Significant work is currently underway on the all-new Star Trek LCARS Blueprints Database. I'm busy scanning, editing, and building pages for as many blueprints as I can get my hands on. Don't expect small, blurry pictures here. Only large, high-resolution images will do!
I've also added another dozen or so books to my collection, so look for those to make there way on to the database soon.
Enjoy!

July 12th, 2005
As some of you know, June 2005 marked the 1-year anniversary of the site. The month-long celebration of that event, which was highlighted by numerous give-aways was a great success. Over 300 copies of the MS-Access LCARS Database were downloaded - free of charge, and I gave away over 60 FREE Star Trek Books to a number of you. So thanks for sharing in the humble 1-year anniversary of this site.
And to keep the spirit going, I'm allowing people to continue to download the MS-Access LCARS Database free of charge throughout July as well, so if you haven't downloaded your copy yet, there's no time like the present.
Also, look for another large give-away of Star Trek books towards the end of the summer. To make things a little more interesting, any and all registered members of the message forums will get first crack at the books. So if you missed out on the titles you were looking for, increase your odds next time by registering and participating in the message forums.
So, on to 'new' things this month. I haven't added any new books to the database this time out, though I have about 20 new additions to my collection. Instead, I've been focusing my time on adding ISBN #s and links to Amazon for nearly every book. Clicking on the Amazon link also helps to support this site, so if you plan on buying a Trek book, I'd appreciate it if you would consider clicking through to Amazon from this site. I'll also be adding links to Abebooks.Com and Ebay in the near future. As Amazon doesn't carry every book, I want to give you a chance to purchase a book from alternate sources...
Hope you enjoy the enhancements. Look for more soon.
As always, thanks for stopping by.
-John
June 5th, 2005
There's reason to celebrate this month as the Star Trek LCARS Book & Episode Database ( @ Cygnus-X1.Net ) enters its second year of operation. To help ring in the birthday of the site, there will be a number of give-aways through out the month. First, and foremost, I'm giving away the MS-Access Star Trek LCARS Database program which I've been selling here and on Ebay for over 2 years now. Over 100 copies of this software has been sold world-wide. I know - nothing staggering - but now I'd like to give it away to one and all during this month. For more information on the database, and where you can download your own copy, click HERE.
As some of you may know, I've been giving away many of my Star Trek books over the past year. Over my nearly 30 years of collecting Star Trek book, one does tend to obtain multiple copies of the same item. Hence my offering them up on a first come, first serve basis to the general populace. Look for my biggest give-away towards the end of June. As before, the annoucement will first be made on this site's message forum (see the link at the top of this page) in the 'Star Trek Books' forum, so be sure to check back often for your chance at more free books.
Now, on to other news. I've added another 17 books to my collection and the site, which brings the total number of Star Trek books online to 1,256. A list of the new additions, which includes the extremely illusive Empire, Aliens and Conquest - a book that I've been searching years for, is listed below. Also, if you haven't seen it yet, there's a new Flash introduction to the site which can be viewed by clicking HERE.
That's about it this time around. Thanks to everyone for helping to make Year 1 of the Star Trek LCARS Book & Episode Database a success.

March 13th, 2005
Time certainly does fly, doesn't it. I blink and nearly two months go by since my last update. This time around, there's a lot to talk about. First and foremost, another 28 books have been added to the database, bringing the total number of books online to 1,239! The newly added books are listed below. In addition to the new books, yet another new book category has been added; this time to reflect the series of "Star Trek Giant Poster Books" which came out in the late 1970s. I've managed to collect all of the released books, including the final edition which focused on Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
In other news, I've been focusing my attention of writing reviews of the fourth season of Enterprise. After the season and, unfortunately, the series comes to an end this spring, I'll be turning my attention to reviewing the remaining series, beginning with The Animated Seried, following by TNG, DS9, VOY and the first three season of Enterprise.
In case you didn't notice my announcement on the message forums, I'll be starting a "Star Trek Book of the Week" column where I'll take a book from my collection (non-novel for the most part) and do an in-depth synopsis/review of the title. My intent is to cover books that, for the most part, are not very well known and/or discussed very often. For that reason, I'll be keeping away from novels as there are many other sites that discuss them in great detail. I hope you like the column. Look for it to launch in very short order.
Finally, as the site approaches its 1-year birthday on June 1st, I plan on offering the biggest Star Trek book give-away yet. Stay tuned for more information.
That's all for now. See you soon-

January 22nd, 2005
Well, it's been nearly two months since my last official update to the site. Apologies for not getting an update online sooner, but the holidays were as busy as I expected. So, let's get to it, shall we?
First, I've added an additional 59 books to the database (see the list of new books below). In addition to the new books, I've added four new categories of books - all related to the late 1990's series of "Young Adult Novels" based on TOS, TNG, DS9 and VOY. Many thanks to Jim McCain who helped me identify the novels and supplied me with valuable information regarding them.
Next, the Episode Database has been steadily updated with reviews of the latest Enterprise episodes. Reviews have typically been posted roughly one hour after the latest episode airs...at least, I've been able to maintain that schedule thus far. And I'm happy to say that the famed 'TrekToday' news site is now listing this site and its reviews as part of the weekly news feed about the latest Enterprise episode. I've also begun working on reviewing the first season of TNG, so look for that to be online shortly.
In other news, the Message Forums have been completely overhauled. I humbly ask that you check them out, register and post a message or two. I certainly don't expect my message forums to become a substitute for other superb Trek forums out there, just another source of information that can only be made possible by you - the user.
Finally, we've been awarded the coveted MJ'S STAR TREK PORTAL LCARS DATABASE INTEGRITY AWARD. Check out all the awards the site has won by clicking here.
That's all for now. Thanks, as always, for visiting.

Welcome to the all-new Star Trek LCARS Book and Episode Database. Yes, finally after 6 months of planning, researching and coding, the extensive episode database is finally up and running. Please check it out and let me know what you think. It will certainly be a continuing work in progress as I back fill each episode with my own reviews of each. But moving forward, I plan on reviewing each new episode of Enterprise within a day or two of the initial airing of the episode.
On to other news: I've added another 35 books to the Book Database section of the site, bringing the total number of books online to 1,152. And with the holiday season fast approaching and Amazon gift certificates heading my way, expect to see many more books added in the weeks and months to come. A complete list of the newly added books is provided below.
The 1st Annual Design-A-Banner Contest is over. It's a shame that only 3 unique people joined the $100 contest, but hopefully next year we'll see a better turn out. Despite only 3 people participating, we actually had over a dozen banners submitted. Check them all out and see who the winners are by clicking HERE.
Finally, you'll no doubt notice that the overall format of the site as been spruced up a bit, due in part to the banner contest "winner". I hope you enjoy the improved look and feel.
As always, enjoy your stay and drop me a line to let me know what you think.
-John
