Utopia Planitia, Titan     and the Kuiper Belt Janet Kuypers 3/16/15 I’m such an astronomy geek that when Pluto was demoted from planetary status, Janet Kuypers here was pleased that Pluto was an icy ball from the Kuiper Belt... But I’m getting a little bent out of orbit whenever I hear astronomical info and find that Star Trek mentioned it first. Got a globe of Mars, and when I squinted and read the name of the northern ice cap, Utopia Planitia, I remembered how the Enterprise-D was built on Utopia Planitia... Or after hearing how astronomers like to study Saturn’s moon Titan (because it has all of the elements of Earth when it first became a planet), that’s when I hear on a Star Trek rerun how ensign Wesley Crusher for training did a Yeager loop around Titan. We’re trying to figure out how to fly anyone on a one-way trip to Mars, and two Enterprise ships were built there. We’re trying to learn about Earth’s history from Titan, and a young pilot is doing tricks around that moon, just to be a show off. Well, we might not have warp drive on our side, but if our scientists take their cues from science fiction, then we’re catching up to Star Trek, and any character from that show won’t match our knowledge of the final frontier.
