Welcome

SB410.net is the website for Starbase 410 a Science fiction and Fantasy club based in Cambridge, England.

Starbase 410 was founded in 1999 and is still going strong today. What started out as a purely Star Trek club has gone from strength to strength and has evolved into so much more. We now incorporate all Science Fiction and quite a bit of Fantasy within our mandate.

Please feel free to browse our website remembering that all content has been submitted by members of our club, if you wish to know more about Starbase 410 or would like to submit to our website please contact one of the e-mail addresses below and either myself (Emma - webmaster) or our secretary (Jaz - enquiries) will get back to you.

Did you catch the quick flash of Rose when the Doctor was transmitting to Donna in the Tardis when she was on the Sontaren ship? RTD is obviously getting ready for bringing her back.

While some of you went to Collectormania I went to collect a car & picked up my new sparkly Fusion which is lovely & James got his new Kawasaki so all happy in the vehicle division. For more click here

It doesn’t seem very long ago when we were looking forward to our inaugural meeting and commissioning Starbase 410 in front of the cameras of ITV.  We have seen a lot of members come and go but I am pleased to say there are still a few of the original crew left. For more click here
Next Month's Meeting
This months theme is Time Travel, so we're covering shows like Dr Who (obviously), Quantum Leap, Time Tunnel, Futurama but time travel also features in other shows like Star Trek, Torchwood, Babylon 5 so they're included as well along with films like The Time Machine, Time Bandits and The Back to The Future Trilogy.
This month we also have a guest speaker, Keith Batt will be joining us to talk about working on Star Trek Of Gods and Men. Keith is a former member of SB410 and the USS Lutonia, he has been able to fulfil his dream of acting in Star Trek along with many other things. He will be filling us in on what he's been up to as well as showing an episode of Star Trek Of Gods and Men and showing us some of the props he has from the show. Plus he also makes a really mean Klingon.
We will be having a quiz on Time Travel brought to us by our resident Time Lord The Inquisitor, so expect some tough questiions.

If you fancy joining us either just come along directions
here or let someone know you are coming by e-mailing enquiries@sb410.net
Last Month's Meeting
Last month was our AGM and BBQ (more of a George Forman really). The committee were re-elected en-masse as no one else really wanted the jobs. Much food was eaten and as Emma forgot to do the quiz a sheet of paper was passed around and members were asked to write up to 3 questions each. We then had a battle of the Sexes quiz which despite the men having written most of the questions was won by the women probably because Emma insisted that the authors of the questions were not allowed to answer their own questions.
It was also announced that the Cocktail Party will double up this year with the Halloween Party and have a slightly Gothic Feel to it and in July 2009 the committee are handing over to the members for a members run meeting.
