Traditionally, at the heart of every addition to the Star Trek franchise is a captain. They lead the crew as they go where no one has gone before, and they carve a place for themselves in audiences' hearts. Some are more memorable than others, of course, but these pillars of the programs are all wonderfully crafted, with distinct personalities and qualities that set them apart from the other captains. While Picard is undoubtedly a fan favorite, unbeatable in the proverbial boxing ring of best Starfleet captain, what about Voyager’sKathryn Janeway, and Deep Space 9’s Benjamin Sisko?
From 1995 to 2001, Voyager graced TV screens, following the adventures of Captain Janeway, fantastic female protagonist, and her crew of the aptly named USS Voyager, as they are transported over 70,000 light-years away from earth into the distant, unexplored Delta Quadrant. Unable to return home, the show follows their adventures traversing their way back to earth, encountering various new alien species along the way. Deep Space 9 began a few years earlier, running from 1993 to 1999, chronologically overlapping with the events of Voyager. Rather than following the usual template for Star Trek tales, Deep Space 9 was set on a space station of the same name, rather than a spaceship, with Commander (later, Captain) Sisko. It was feared that the stationary aspect of the station, literally unable to «explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations,» would be boring. However, the show surprised audiences, highlighting Starfleet and federation politics as well as new aliens through the clever introduction of a stable wormhole into the Gamma Quadrant.
