Changes: Fundamental Declarations of the Martian colonies

Revision as of 19:45, 26 March 2015

The Fundamental Declarations of the Martian colonies was a historical legal document from Mars history. Laws pertaining to the Human rights of the accused were enumerated in this document. It was one of the legal authorities cited by Attorney-at-Law Samuel T. Cogley at Captain Kirk's general court martial in 2267. (TOS: "Court Martial")

During its fourth season, Star Trek: Enterprise hoped to do a story about this historic event, but the episode never materialized. The idea was that Mars would aim the comets used for terraforming at Earth, in a Cuban missile crisis-type scenario. Some elements of the story found their way into "Terra Prime". ("Terra Prime" audio commentary)A conjectural version of the declaration was printed in the Star Trek Spaceflight Chronology, which dated it to 2062.
