Franz Bachelin's last credited work as a cinema art director was for part two of the US television series Star Trek episode "The Menagerie".[4] Bachelin originally assumed responsibility for art direction for the originally-planned Star Trek pilot episode "The Cage" after the first art director for the series pilot, Pato Guzman left the production company to repatriate to his native Chile.[5] This original series pilot was turned down by the National Broadcasting Company (the first television network to broadcast Star Trek), and was only released in 1988 as a filler episode in Paramount Television's Star Trek: The Next Generation television series during a writers' strike. Bachelin did not receive screen credit for his work on "The Cage".[6]

gollark: Also, I could never work out how to supply reasonable quantities of oxygen to space stations.
gollark: Anyway, AR is too multiblocky, the vast amount of planets aren't very interesting, I don't actually care about designing a custom rocket, and having to research planets or something is annoying.
gollark: So, anyway, would you "host" this "modpack" or an approximation thereof? Heavpoot's server is bad and laggy (some offense).
gollark: Anyway, "heav"poot, having to restart the game whenever I die is not optimal.
