Happy birthday to Bruce Horak, who played Chief Engineer Hemmer of the USS Enterprise on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and Very Short Treks—and was a singing Klingon in SNW's "Subspace Rhapsody." In addition to being an actor, he's also a painter and visual artist.

Happy birthday to Daniel Dae Kim! He was in Star Trek: Voyager's "Blink of an Eye" and played a MACO soldier on Enterprise. The day he was born, William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, and Walter Koenig were being fitted for their "Tholian Web" spacesuits.
