Of course 6X9=42 in Base 13, but as Douglas Adams himself said, "I may be a sorry case, but I don't write jokes in Base 13." Numberphile tackles the number And again. It took a long time to find how to get 42 by summing three cubes Miscellaneous mathematical properties from Wikipedia Star Trek events in years that end with 42 (Memory Alpha and Beta): 2342: Picard refuses to meet Jenice in Paris, Ishara Yar is born, Bevery Howard starts her medical training 2242: Gary Mitchell and Janice Rand are born, construction begins on the 1701 under the command of Robert April 2142: Wendy Raymond (great great granddaughter of Clare Raymond) dies 2042: Final World Series (won by Buck Bokai) 1942: The Nexus ribbon passed through the galaxy this year, Chekov is transported to this year by an omnipotent being in a novel and meets one of Kirk's ancestors
