No kidding. There was definitely a lot of sexual tension between Quark and Odo, right from the start. I think Odo subconsciously likes the bad boys.

>ST:E [is] not canon
Enterprise is canon though. It was literally written and produed by the same lot of showrunners as Voyager and DS9.
Plus, most of Enterprise's plot lines are actually vital to many story arcs, including The Borg, the Federation, the Vulcan-Romulan relationship, Surak as well as many other things.
The only thing people quote when they claim non-canonicity of Enterprise is when those Ferengi pirates board the Enterprise and try to steal everything. Which itself can be explained away, since the Ferengi never actually identified themseles as such, and they were pirates, not actual representatives of the Ferengi Alliance.
Anyone who claims that Enterprise is non-canon is an idiot who contributed to the death of Star Trek in the early 2000s and cemented the future of Trek, which will be defined by these cash grab series which seem to milk the franchise for brand recognition rather than actually doing something creatively fulfilling.

ENT getting killed is down to oversaturation of Trek and Voyager. Everyone was pissed with Voyager so they never gave Enterprise a chance. Plus the fact the writers had a hard on for the Temporal Cold War which was started with Voyager and kept going with it despite nobody really liking it.

they should have just kept going with DS9; there's no reason you can't have 30 seasons or something.
It's not like any of the star trek casts from any of the shows ever does much of value after star trek.

If you mean outside of Trek, then not really.
Most of the actors in DS9 just went into obscurity and into theatre.
Armin Shimmerman became popular for voice acting though. His career basically boomed afterwards, mostly because he can do a great variety of voices, and can get into character pretty quickly.
Voyager's cast had more people go onto other things. Kate Mulgrew went on to do a few different TV dramas before becoming famous again in the Netflix series, "Orange is the New Black". Jeri Ryan went on to do a few TV dramas before making her way into US crime dramas, including Body of Proof. Robert Picardo did a few things, including Stargate Atlantis. Connor Trinneer from Enterprise would also appear in Stargate Atlantis as well as another Stargate series. John Billingsley from Enterprise would also appear in another sci-fi with a co-star from Enterprise, Seth McFarlane, but that's the Orville…. Speaking of Enterprise, Scott Bakula went on to star in NCIS: New Orleans, but his time in sci-fi basically ended.

Rene Auberjonois went on to do loads of things and semi-retired to do voice acting.
Alexander Siddig has done loads of shows as well, including 24, Peaky Blinders, Gotham. None of which are obscure.
Colm Meaney has done loads of films albeit they are mostly European, but they are not that obscure.

Siddig has been someone who has remained mostly out of my popular culture radar, so to speak. That might be because I haven't watched regular television in 2 years, or because I don't live in the US.
Colm Meaney is someone I now know more for politics than I do most of his acting. Con Air was the last major US film I remember him being in. He was also in a film produced by the BBC, "Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa", which was based on a British sitcom. Oh, and he was also in a film, "The Journey" which was based on the Northern Irish peace process.
Colm Meaney is someone who unironically appears relatively often enough in politics where I live, since he is a Sinn Féin party member, and has been doing stuff again and again about Irish unification.

Temporarily, yes. In the long run, you would see what happened to the franchise in the US happen to the armed forces; in an effort to create new voting blocs, politicians will lower entry requirements to allow people who will vote for them into the service. Repeat this process several times until its piss-easy to get into the military, and the service is so weakened and diluted it becomes nothing more than a combination social club and welfare dispensary. If you think the military is cucked now, imagine how bad it would be if membership became a political tool.

That was the two part episode, "Terra Prime".
Also, it wasn't the Federation, it was the United Earth, although the incident took place during talks for the formation of the "Coalition of Planets", a military alliance between multiple homeworlds for mutual defence as well as establishing trade deals.
The Coalition of Planets ended some time in the 23rd Century as the final members joined the United Federation of Planets which rendered the Coalition obsolete.

According to Star Trek lore, never.
Earth's population, at least after WWIII, skyrockets, which is why several colonies are established, not only on the Moon, but also on Mars as well as on other solar systems.
Outside of San Francisco, there's not really much reason for people visiting from other worlds to really go to places on Earth.
OK, sure Paris becomes the place where the President of the United Federation of Planets sits, but once again, it's either UFP or Starfleet installations where visitors from other planets would be drawn to.
I mean, who the hell would be interested in going to New Orleans, unless you were visiting a friend?

Uh…. that's maybe an interesting point, but those are technically tourists, they'll be going home after they're done.
In a post-scarcity society, what would attract someone to move to Earth from another planet, like say…….. Andoria? I could understand an Andorian diplomat, or an Andorian officer in Starfleet. But an Andorian civilian? Hmm….
For the most part, it just seems like most aliens who visit Earth are just visitors who will be on their merry way not long after. Even if you include the Naussicans who do create trouble on Earth from time to time, the point is that they've not settled on Earth, they're just passing through for whatever reason.

>Earth was able to colonize the moon and mars post WWIII?
The series is incredibly vague throughout with regards to what happened before the NX-01 Enterprise, and continues to be vague even afterwards, at least as far as the Earth-Romulan War goes.
Even during WWIII, at least according to the dates, it's established that space agencies were still sending people to explore the solar system. When they launched, or who was their ground control was never made clear.
Moon colonisation was done at some point after WWIII, but it's implied that people who had the money went there first, because of the large number of resources which could be mined from the moon. Meanwhile the likes of Zefram were more like the poor common people who basically were living in shanty towns across the world.
Mars colonisation occured predominantly after First Contact, but it's established that Mars colonisation was initiated before then, but it's still unclear how far they got before First Contact.

How did Cochrane get his PHD? He is supposed to be 30is in First Contact which means he was born in the late 2020s or 2030s. That is right when WWIII starts.

He either got his PhD after his warp flight, or he got it in his early 20s, either before or after WWIII. Remember: First Contact was in 2063, so "30s" can be anywhere between 30 and 39, and if I'm honest, he looks a lot more like 39.

why do people feel the need to push a 'sexual tension' angle whenever two male characters spend a lot of time together on screen? I honestly don't see it there. A mutual respect, potentially, but wanting to bone each other (or whatever Ferengi have for genitalia) not so much.
