They didn't bring it up again after it happened, if that's what you mean. But they definitely showed it happening before that. In fact, I didn't know this until I just looked it up, but it was in the first episode of the series after the pilot. I guess I thought they would have waited a little longer before the weird inter-species sex started happening, but nope, right out of the gate.

Star wars is the absolute worst POS I have ever had the displeasure to try and watch . Could not even make it through a few minutes of it . Now back in the day that was supposed to be advanced technology in films but I never thought so .
Horrible , absolutely the worst acting I have ever seen in a major release or in most cheap flics . Grade school plays have far better actors than Star Wars .
Star Trek on the other hand is the bomb

So if I am understanding what you are trying to convey is that you prefer Star Trek to Star Wars?? Just trying to be sure...

Episode 3 depending on whether you count the double length pilot as one or two episodes.

Isn't that redundant?? Just joking.
Star Wars and Star Trek (and BSG, for what it's worth) always served different purposes to me.
Star Wars is a great story of magic and excitement with a strong, moralistic undercurrent. The Luke-Vader story line helped to teach me right from wrong (basic morals) as well as humility, since Luke could have / would have BEEN Vader if not for Vader's own example, so don't be holier-than-thou.
Star Trek TNG (my favorite) and the Original Series were all about puzzles of wonderment and vexing, complicated ethical questions. Where Star Wars was about impossible magic and black vs. white morals, Star Trek was about imagining the fantastic through the scientifically semi-plausible, and about making the right decision when things are in shades of grey (ethics).
The original cast Star Trek movies were of a different sort. They were about getting older and dealing with one's own feeling and prejudices. Mostly they were about being self-aware and maintaining an openness to grow and change.
Finally, the new Battlestar Galactica was a decade later, so less influential in my life, but man nothing had more bang for the buck than that story. It had a gritty realism and maintained a pained nuance that most shows would never try. I haven't re-watched it in a while so I'm not sure how it's aged now that 9/11 and the Iraq war are another decade removed, but it was powerful stuff at the time about how to make the best decision in impossible situations. Best show on TV before Breaking Bad.
I'm actually watching BSG for the first time around now. Just started Season 3. My only complaint about it would be all the flashbacks. They WAY overused that device.

My wife's car:
on the rear window is a full size decal looking like your going into light speed. On the dash are several samll storm trooper figures and a Darth Vader figure. She has a Death Star ornament hanging from the rear view mirror and a personalized travel coffee mug in black and white with a storm trooper helmet on it.

Star Trek and it's not even close. Not to offend any of the other neckbeards on here, but Star Wars is one of the most overrated series in the history of the entire mouth breather genre.

Neither. Honorverse ftw. Although, if pressed, I will say I enjoy the Star Trek reboot a ton.

How many books is he up to? Last one I read was: Echoes of Honor #8 or #9.
Crap, quick check on the google shows me I'm way behind.

Yeah, dude, you really are behind. There's the Shadow and Crown series that run parallel to the main line, another anthology since then, the Stephanie Harrington prequel series, the House of Steel tech bible. Cauldron of Ghosts, which is the book that's going to wrap up the Crown of Slaves side series, is the next book due out and Weber's starting up another prequel series involving another character.
If you want I can e-mail you everything you don't have. For anybody that's wondering, Baen's official policy is that eBooks are free to share, so I would be breaking no laws by doing that.
It is a terrible shame that I had to go to the 2nd page of my Subscribe's to find this thread.... To move it back where it belongs, I am submitting this video of Picard and crew singing their version of Let it Snow. Merry Christmas!!!

Sometime after the next Star Wars movie, I think.
