I understand what pon farr is, but where is the photo from? Which is the original? When was it taken and why? Is the original negative/print held by a particular organisation?
If it is a promotional image from the studio, I would imagine it said something like “Star Trek Now on Fridays” originally. I think “pon farr” wouldn’t have yet been well known enough to mention.
Pretty sure it’s a photoshop job.

Seems it’s a promo for season 2 of TOS and the show’s new timeslot on Fridays. The lettering is a nod to Laugh-In, and the whole timeslot shuffle is a long story.
Also I see Google has completely given up on quotation marks around phrases. So that’s fun.
I switched to DuckDuckGo a year ago as an experiment and it’s slightly better. Like 10% better. I don’t think they’ve done anything groundbreaking, pretty sure it’s mostly just Bing, but I suspect that SEO spammers just aren’t targeting their algorithm as much. Regardless, I have no regrets.
