We're all eager to check out the newest addition to the Star Trek universe, Star Trek: Discovery. This includes Ronald D. Moore, the current showrunner of Outlander and creator of Battlestar Galactica and a man who cut his TV writing teeth in the Star Trek universe.

For those who don't know, Moore was responsible for much of the Star Trek we know and love. He was a staff writer on The Next Generation, writing or co-writing 27 episodes of the series, including the two-part finale "All Good Things..." He and Brannon Braga co-wrote the Trek movies Star Trek Generations and Star Trek: First Contact.

Moore continued his Star Trek career with Deep Space Nine. He wrote or co-wrote 30 episodes for the series, and served as a supervising producer and then co-executive producer. Watching Deep Space Nine, it's easy to see the Star Trek series as a reaction to the utopian tone of The Next Generation and as a prototype for the themes Moore would go on to explore with Battlestar Galactica.

Moore wrote or co-wrote two episodes for Voyager before moving on to non-Star Trek projects.
