Does anyone know what headshell this is? I don't recognise the logo on it. It looks impossible to get the cartridge twisted on the headshell, as it just seems to slide fore and aft . .

The logo looks a bit like the United Federation Of Planets.
Has it fallen through a timewarp from a fictional future?

Plus if you squint a bit it looks like a cousin of the Starship Enterprise, boldly splitting infinitives . . .

The picture was from a German forum. I noticed it in particular because it was on a TT I have (A Kenwood KD7010 - or 990).
I can't see how to link to the post, but it's about 2/3 the way down this page:

I think it is from Audio-Technica, I had one years ago on a SME 3009, thought it sounded better then the original SME head shell.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

After a bit of googling, it seems this headshell is made by Osawa but is sold under a number of brand names including "Expert"' "Jeweltone" and Nagaoka. This particular one appears to be a company called "Analogtechnik".
If you fancy one, it appears the same as these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nagaoka-Je...-/350475409324
