Hello everyone,

I wanted to share this video. This is the first part of the Borg Documentary.

As many of you know the Borg are more or less the most lethal, and dangerous
enemies in the Star Trek universe.

First appearing in the episode entitled (Q Who?) in 1989.

The Borg are an race of beings comprised of cybernetic components, along with organic ones.

They are linked through an “Hive Mind” much like a colony of bees. They assimilate races into there collective, and take technologies by force that they think will bring them closer to there ultimate goal of perfection!

This first part is a very interesting, and informative look at one of my personal favorite sci-fi enemies!

Having said this, I highly recommend you watch this… RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!! ;)

Enjoy!!
