• Section 31 web master Tim Hansen has announced that the site will close after five years on the Internet.

  Due to the lack of sufficient revenue through donations and advertising I am not going to re-new services with Liquid Web or seek out new hosting options for this website. [...] I've come to the decision that there are other priorities in life and they should definitely take precedence over a website hobby dedicated to a franchise of TV series and films.

  Everyone here at TrekToday wishes Tim Hansen and the Section 31 staff all the best for the future!
