40th Anniversary Remastering
This episode was remastered and first aired January 13, 2007 as part of the 40th anniversary remastering of the Original Series. It was preceded a week earlier by "Friday's Child" and followed a week later by "Where No Man Has Gone Before". Aside from remastered video and audio, and the all-CGI animation of the USS Enterprise that is standard among the revisions, specific changes to this episode also include:
- The city on the planet Scalos, originally a reuse of the city on Eminiar VII in "A Taste of Armageddon", was given a completely new face lift with a digital matte painting.
- The high-speed shifting effect of the Scalosians has been enhanced with a slow-motion blur effect instead of jump cuts.
- Phaser streams and their impact effects have been enhanced instead of being animated blotches of color.

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 (17351826)
