Welcome aboard the USS Mountaineer, we are a multifaceted Sci-Fi Fan club with a bases in Star Trek, but we like many others interested in Sci-Fi are into all the various Sci-Fi areas. If you have a liking for Sci-Fi, we are a place for you. While

we run the club based upon the roles of the Star Trek universe, we recognize all the other various Sci-Fi endeavors. We follow many other types of Sci-Fi  shows, Babylon5, Dr. Who, Star Wars, Battle Star Galactica, The Orville,  SeaQuest DSV just to mention a few.

The Mountaineers have a rich history, they are trail blazers, resourceful, cunning, and most importantly very loyal. Or should I say fearlessly loyal.  They make do with what they have and above all else value life. A  mountaineer will seek to overcome, adapt, and improvise when met with a situation they are unfamiliar with.

As our Motto we have chosen: Ad audacter qua montani semper liberi, which means "To go Boldly where the Mountaineers are always free"

We are explorers, we seek to understand new paths and create new ways for people to live better lives. To be a Mountaineer you must be willing to give of yourself for the betterment of the group. You must be willing to look at all sides of something before you and know that the best path to take that will not only get us to our desired destination but will do no harm to the land that is not repairable.

We live by the Prime Directive of Starfleet.

The Prime Directive prohibits Starfleet personnel and spacecraft from interfering in the normal development of any society, and mandates that any Starfleet vessel or crew member is  expendable to prevent violation of this rule. and As the right of each sentient species to live  in accordance with its normal cultural evolution is considered sacred, no Starfleet personnel may interfere with the normal and healthy development of alien life and culture. Such interference includes introducing superior knowledge, strength, or technology to a world  whose society is incapable of handling such advantages wisely.

Starfleet personnel may not violate this Prime Directive, even to save their lives and/or their ship, unless they are acting to right an earlier violation or an accidental contamination of said culture. This directive takes precedence over any and all other considerations, and carries with it the highest moral obligation.

In modern views, we do not judge others on their beliefs, cultures, histories, we understand and accept that each person comes from a distinct culture, and each must accept this culture as it is the foundation of each of our core values.

Each person who is a member of our group understands that at its core we are humans and part of this means we accept each other will have differences in opinions, thoughts, customs, religious views, race,  creed, and history.

We are made stronger by the diversity of our group. We are all inclusive in our membership. While we may not agree with each other views we as a group are beyond such petty arguments. We seek not to judge, condone, reprimand people on their views, we however seek to learn about each other as we take part in our group.We understand that certain subjects will cause

undo arguments and tension which is not productive nor required.

It was the mission of Gene Roddenberry to show a world which was better, a world of acceptances, a world of equally voices, a  world of one set goal. To be the  best we can.

We uphold and honor his vision in this group and will always strive to be the best no matter the situation.

We challenge you to participate in this club as a Mountaineer ALWAYS FREE!
