    So, funnily enough, most of the online stardate calculators make the same mistake I did (start of year = xx000). However, this one doesn’t – it uses the ‘Homestead’ reference instead (based on the source code).

      Fascinating, I’ll need to see if I can find where they got their system from.

      The best and most detailed stardate system I’ve found online is here. It makes a valiant attempt to integrate the TNG and TOS stardates into a coherent whole. It’s a little overwrought in my book and makes some calls I can’t agree with, but you can’t fault the dedication!
