The best Star Trek fan event of the year joyfully celebrates the franchise's worst episode

Star Trek fans celebrate a lot of holidays. There's Star Trek Day on Sept. 8, the anniversary of the premiere of Star Trek: The Original Series. There's First Contact Day on April 5, the anniversary of the fictional date on which humanity made first contact with Vulcan visitors.
The article from Polygon discusses the infamous "Star Trek: Voyager" episode titled "Threshold," which has become notorious among fans for its bizarre plot. In this episode, Lieutenant Tom Paris and Captain Janeway undergo a rapid evolution experiment that leads to them transforming into salamander-like creatures. The episode, which aired in 1996, has been widely criticized for its scientific inaccuracies and the absurdity of its premise, where the characters not only evolve into amphibians but also reproduce, leaving their offspring on a planet. Over time, "Threshold" has gained a cult following, especially on platforms like Tumblr, where fans engage with its meme potential, often humorously referring to it as the "salamander episode." The article explores how this episode, despite its initial poor reception, has found a peculiar place in Star Trek lore, becoming a topic of fascination and humor within the fan community.
