![]() ![]() Then it'll layer the images for that object so the object becomes much bigger in size." The actor further explained the layering the images will also show much more detail than the naked eye could ever see with the use of a telescope. "After you punch that in, it will move to that object on its own and it'll hold it and track it. You just punch in the object you want to go see," he said. "It will simply find a starfield on its own and it will figure out where it is. Russ helped detect Patroclus using a Unistellar eVscope and eQuinox telescope, a computerized telescope with a built-in GPS that connects to any cellphone. …These primitive bodies hold vital clues to deciphering the history of the solar system, and perhaps even the origins of organic material on Earth." Tim Russ arrives at Unbelievable movie, 50 Anniversary Startrek party & red carpet at TLC Chinese Theater, Hollywood CA. The NASA report said the Trojan asteroids are "stabilized by the Sun and its largest planet in a gravitational balancing act. You can interact with Tim through Twitter."These Trojan asteroids were captured in Jupiter's orbit, probably from farther out in the solar system, so they're more rare and more pristine in terms of what information they might have in their chemical makeup," the Voyager star said. Tim is currently directing/editing the fan created Star Trek: Renegades (and reprising the Tuvok role), acting in other productions, and singing with his band. By exploring this other aspect of Tuvok’s being, the audience gained a great affinity for and attachment to the reserved character. To see the transformation from typically neutral and nonplussed into dangerous hunter was a great acting exploration. Tuvok provided counterpoint to Janeway’s emotional intelligence and leadership under duress, the ever-annoyed (spoiler: annoying) Chakotay and his Maquis management-style, Seven’s striving for humanity, the maturation of Paris, and Kim’s career goals (spoiler: never happens).įar and away my favourite episode had Tuvok and Lon Suder paired up. I was not watching Star Trek to see a mirror to my current society but to see an idealized potential of a future place. ![]() The character was given the back-story of having little patience for the human tendency to make it all about themselves - a trait within the narrative that bothered me. Tuvok was the conduit through which fans like me could honestly view the other characters, situations, and the Federation. Tuvok was the samurai - loyal, determined, duty-bound, masterful, and mentally and physically tough as nails. What I enjoyed the most about Tuvok was that he was not charming but he was fascinating as the logical sage. The seven year journey saw his character take on interpersonal challenges of leadership, friendship, emotionality, and assimilation. ![]() Timothy Darrell Russ played the stalwart, obstinate, humourless security officer aboard USS Voyager. ![]() Now that the new movie franchise has blown up the planet (spoiler: and never really deal with the repercussions because they favoured lens flares), I doubt there will be any reason to expand beyond the all-white Vulcan casting. Trivia: He auditioned (and was considered) for the Geordi La Forge role when he was 29.Īs an aside, it was unfortunate to me that there was only one black Vulcan family in existence as it was a missed opportunity, by the producers, to give Vulcans (a superior alien race) a truer sense of diversity. He had other guest roles within the franchise shows and movies (one of two actors who played alongside 4 of 5 Star Trek captains), Tuvok was his best known Star Trek role. Tim Russ played Lt Commander Tuvok (VOY), the only visibly black Vulcan male in the Star Trek universe. ![]()
