Sitting at a table in the convention food court on Sunday, we received a tweet from one of our followers congratulating us on an award we had won from Ex Astris Scientia. Wait what? An award? We quickly checked out ex-astris-scientia.org and sure enough, we had won the EAE award for November 2010. Just about any Trek fan knows that Ex Astris Scientia is an internet authority on all things Star Trek canon and EAS has been giving out it's EAE awards since 1999. We're so thrilled and honored to receive the award!

Here's what Ex Astris Scientia had to say about us:

Subspace Communique was launched in April 2009, right in time for the upcoming Abrams movie, but I discovered the site only recently. It is a blog with daily news about Star Trek productions, actors, conventions and merchandise, true to its sub-title "Trek Culture Served Daily". Well, there are already a few better known and probably better frequented news portals in existence. However, Subspace Communique is a useful supplement because it focuses on items of special interest instead of posting just every available production rumor or every off-topic news with the words "Star Trek" in it, and it doesn't simply republish news that can be found elsewhere. The site comes with a very pleasant layout sporting large-scale pictures and with a minimum of advertising. Furthermore, I think few news blogs have such a well-organized and categorized archive as Subspace Communique. It is right up there with the best Trek news sites, thanks to the steady efforts of its staff. (source Ex Astris Scientia)

We're thankful for the award, but definitely couldn't have done it without you guys & gals, our readers. Thanks to everyone for making Subspace Communique possible.
