DS9 s7e17 “Penumbra”
I was always jealous of the clock Sisko makes

And then there’s his own full scale solar sail lightship. He really liked to tinker.

Sisko had an engineering background. After all, he was a part of the team that developed the Defiant class ship.
I… somehow didn’t know that. Thank you kind internet stranger-friend!
Now I’m wondering what Kirk and Picard did before they were in command positions…
Picard was an anthropologist.
Kirk manned phaser banks.
Picard was a helmsman.
I always assumed he was involved in some sort of supervisory role but he this makes a lot of sense. My new headcannon is that he’s the reason they stuffed such an overpowered engine in it because he wanted to see if it was possible.
Iirc, he was the project manager. The real engineers probably let him fool with interior lighting to keep him happy and away from critical systems….
They weren’t entirely successful.
He might have been an engineer unlucky enough to be promoted to project manager
Did Sisko have ADHD?
When you replicate a model, the layer lines are a style choice. The most appreciated replicated Benchys are the “authentic” ones that still have hull lines and VFAs.
You can tell the real fans because they also replicate the sprues, just for the aesthetic.
Don’t forget about the Alamo.
Most people don’t recall the Alamo
“Recall the Alamo!”
