Dear friends,

As many of you will have heard by now, we lost a dear member of our family over the weekend.

 

Aron Eisenberg, who played 'Nog' for seven years on Deep Space Nine, passed away suddenly this past Saturday following complications from a heart attack. Our community has been devastated by the news, and our film team has struggled to come to terms with the untimely loss of someone who was such a close friend to the project.

You can see the love for Aron and personal messages from our cast & crew in the news or on social media this week, but we wanted to take a moment now here with you to share our own remembrance of and tribute to our friend in this extended clip from his interview:

Should you wish to support Aron's family by donating to the funeral costs, a GoFundMe has been set up on the behalf of Aron's wife Malíssa and his two children and can be viewed here.

 

Aron was truly everything wonderful you've already seen or felt about him - kind, witty, energetic and passionate, and someone who cared immensely for the wellbeing of everyone around him. While we grieve and struggle to accept his loss, we also encourage you to follow his endlessly positive attitude and example. Take a moment this week to make someone smile, or do something kind for those around you.

With neverending love,

- The #DS9Doc Family

Greetings fellow niners,

 

One of our favorite surprise collaborations on the #DS9Doc was that with original Star Trek composing team DENNIS MCCARTHY and KEVIN KINER. Those of you who now own a Backer Edition disk set have hopefully seen and enjoyed their interview together in the "Musical Reunion" special bonus feature:

Kevin Kiner & Dennis McCarthy (composers)

Not only are these two gentlemen true professionals and acclaimed musicians in their own right, but they are also also funny, energetic and supportive friends and all-around great guys. We're forever grateful to them and their teams for the beautiful contributions to "What We Left Behind," elevating key moments and bringing life and Star Trek authenticity to our animated Season 8 opener through their musical score.

That original score is now available to purchase as a stand-alone soundtrack, released this past week through BSX Records. Check out the soundtrack details and arwork preview here:
