    The primer of Deep Space Nine happened closer to man landing on the moon than today’s current date.

        The moon landing was 24 years prior to DS9 coming out. DS9’s premier was 31 years ago. It’s just a casual observation / joke that people reminiscing about actual space exploration when DS9 came out would be looking back less into the past than people reminiscing about a space station TV show today.
