I cannot fathom how someone has the attention to analyze these shows to note the chairs being used. Frankly, the Stokke Globe Garden is so far in the background of the Lower Decks screen capture that I can't understand how someone picked up on it.

Usually it’s a group of people who do so to receive social credit from each other on a successful entry. Us humans are designed to do all sorts of unpleasant weird shit for social credit.

You're certainly not wrong there.

I'd bet a lot of this relies on insider information -- a props supervisor and fan of the site may have gone out of their way to share the detail.

ST has a warehouse full of that stuff. Pictures, actual props, inventory lists and who to rent from, and original purchase orders. It is pretty detailed what they have access to for star trek especially after TNG. There are a few youtube vids where they show a very small sampling of what they have. Now some of the ToS stuff is more reliant on fan info. As a lot was cleared out in the 70s/80s for space for other things. A show like lower decks is all nostalgia type items so they are probably going thru that stuff very heavily.

I wondered if that was a part of it, but this particular Lower Decks entry makes me wonder. It seems like an amazing level of consistency between very different forms of production.

On the other hand, I suppose there could be a "Chairs of Star Trek" design handbook within the organization. This would be under the "Weird Shit" section.

Lower Decks is made by people who really care about the franchise. Chairs are just one small example, they get all the small things right to obsessive degree.

Lower Decks is to Star Trek what some of the later series like Mandalorian and Rogue One are to Star Wars. Luckily, stuff like this still gets made!

A friend of mine has that chair or a copy of it. I'll ask if it's original.

It's a tall chair and one must climb it, then you can look at the other people from above. Not uncomfortable but not comfortable too. We call it the Klingon Chair.
