40th Anniversary Remastering
This episode was remastered in 2006 and was first aired June 2, 2007 as part of the remastered 40th Anniversary Original Series. It was preceded a week earlier by the remastered version of "Shore Leave" and followed a week later by the remastered version of "Spock's Brain." Aside from remastered video and audio, and the all-CGI animation of the Enterprise that is standard among the revisions, specific changes to this episode also include:
- The planet 892-IV has been changed to appear more Earthlike. It has also been given two moons.
- The two moons have been added to the blue sky during the establishing "beam in" sequence.
- Bullet holes now appear in the prison cell wall after the guards try to machine gun the landing party as they beam away.
- As the Enterprise approaches 892-IV, bits and pieces of the Beagle can be seen floating around it.

Famous quotes containing the word anniversary:
“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
