"I don't see why we have to do this every year," Captain Jean-Luc Picard complains in the "Star Trek: The Next Generation" season 7 episode "The Pegasus." It's Captain Picard Day on board the Enterprise and he's not thrilled with having to look at models and drawings of himself made by the Starfleet kids. June 16 is Captain Picard Day here on Earth and it's a time to celebrate our "Next Gen" hero in Star Trek style. If you're wondering why June 16 gets the honor, it's because a lot of fans agree that the stardate of 47457.1 mentioned in "The Pegasus" matches that particular date on our Earth calendar. Picard purposefully broke out of the Kirk mode. He wasn't beaming headlong into dangerous situations
