40th Anniversary Remastering
This episode was re-mastered in 2006 and was first aired July 14, 2007 as part of the remastered 40th Anniversary original series. It was preceded a week earlier by "Return to Tomorrow" and followed a week later by "The Squire of Gothos." 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 Antares is shown for the first time alongside the Enterprise in the opening sequence, and was not seen at all in the original episode. The design of the ship is reminiscent of the drone cargo ships (shown in Star Trek: The Animated Series episode "More Tribbles, More Troubles") with the addition of a forward section for the Antares crew.
- The Thasian ship has been given a slightly more solid shape as opposed to the shapeless glow that originally appeared.

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)
