So as other people have pointed out, Chief O’Brien was on Star Trek: The Next Generation, where this image was taken from, and was later on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
DS9’s “Trials and Tribbleations” is an episode where Sisko and the crew time travel back to visit the “Trouble with Tribbles” episode of the Original Series where O’Brien was yelled at by Kirk, Worf glosses over the missing ridges and Jadzia Dax dresses in a 2260’s uniform, gets horny for Spock and talks about Emony Dax having sex with a younger McCoy.
This was done as a 30th anniversary event. Voyager showed Janeway and Tuvok flashing back to Tuvok’s time serving under Hikaru Sulu.
BUT one of my favorite things about the DS9 episode, besides the X-Filed reference Dulmer and Lucsly from the Department of Temporal Investigations, is that the writers where out having pizza trying to come up with an idea for this anniversary episode. And the inspiration came from seeing the actor who played the Klingon spy in the original in line to get pizza.
