Ambassadorial starships have to be prepared for any cultural eventuality. It's a gloryhole with a rotating crew roster. Fun fact: it's the only reason we're on such good terms with the people of Risa

When you transport someone in while at warp speed you need a shunt area to route the chunky salsa of former crewman into should something go wrong. That closet is designated Pattern Buffer Reserve Omicron in the transporter chief's operations manual. Its lined with plastic and has a drain in the bottom.

"Six days a week this is the best job in the galaxy," the lieutenant said to the ensign. "What happens on the seventh day?" the ensign asked. The lieutenant frowned and rubbed his jaw.

I liked how Sulu was just too drat illogical for Tuvok to work for so he quit Starfleet for 50 years and came back only to get stuck with Janeway.

Maybe Sulu was too logical and they did nothing but butt heads, like when two bottoms strike up a relationship. Never, ever look in the nightstands of a couple like that. You will see apparatuses even the Borg wouldn't assimilate.

She looks like a vampire. Then again, she had to avoid direct sunlight during DS9 filming, so perhaps this is confirmed?

This 5th Passenger movie is supposed to be out 10/31, not sure where. Marina Sirtis, Armin Shimerman, and Tim Russ are in it. (IMDB also lists July 2017 as a release date so who knows if this is actually even coming out.) Then there's this thing that's on KickStarter for 2017 called The Circuit that seems to have lots of Star Trek people involved. I'm not sure what the gently caress it's supposed to even be though. From the website: "The first ever Pop-Culture Convention Anthology film, true to the convention circuit with the FANS DIRECTLY INVOLVED. Imagine a multi-genre anthology film where fans and long time entertainment professionals collaborate to create 10 original stories, all intertwined and taking place over a single convention weekend. Fans are submitting scripts and resumes, as you read this, to work with our professional team from some of your favorite Hollywood movies and shows. Every person who pledges to the campaign, is invited to contact us at the email below, even to tell us how you would like to be involved in the film!" "Taking place over a single convention weekend" is the part that confuses me. Actually, just looked at the Kickstarter, and it was cancelled 6 days ago, they wanted $200,000 but only raised $32,556. Oh well. I guess people were as confused as I was?

shadow puppet of a posted:When you transport someone in while at warp speed you need a shunt area to route the chunky salsa of former crewman into should something go wrong. That closet is designated Pattern Buffer Reserve Omicron in the transporter chief's operations manual. False. The designated shunt zone is the replicator feedstock tank.

if you want to preserve the history of your people you should load up a probe with a lifetime's worth of one dude's memories and shoot it into deep space in the hopes that it hits a starship captain in the head and teaches him how to play the flute. you shouldn't just write it down or anything

Hector Beerlioz posted:I thought the enterprise d had a special tank room for the dolphin people From what I can recall, TNG was supposed to be partially navigated by whales located in the front of the ship. That was supposed to be a thing starting in S1E1, but there was some sort of cost issue so they scrapped it. Why would they do something so stupid? Everyone in the late 1980s had a REAL boner for whales (see Star Trek IV), so the writers were gonna capitalize on this. Thank God they didn't. (disclaimer: this may all be wrong)

I like how they were apparently a pre-warp society yet they had the technology to make a probe capable of beaming all that knowledge into an alien's head in like a minute.

It'd be funny if Starfleet ships all just started toting a whale around as standard equipment after they got hosed up by that probe, but you know one of the drat things would go crazy and take over the ship or get borged about five minutes out from spacedock

They had an Orca tank, as seen in award winning documentary, Blackfish. Data gets mauled by an Orca in Season 8.

Hello friends. I finished DS9 a few months ago and have been slowly making my way through Voyager since then; I'm almost done with season 2 now. So far I think it's pretty much mediocre at best and pretty much none of the characters are particularly likable or interesting yet. I turned it off last night because Harry Kim and Torres were trapped in a weird mime computer program and Harry was going to have his head cut off in a guillotine. It seemed pretty retarded which is what got me into TNG in the first place. Is this episode a turning point for Voyager and will there just be endless stupid goofy adventures from here on in? Thanks true believers

There was this mid-show lull when Paris and the Doctor were the only characters I enjoyed and I was always hoping Neelix would get accidentally spaced. Janeway is the most boring captain and Chikotay is so forgettable the only thing I remember about him was that the evil version of him in that one episode has a whole face tattoo. When 7 of 9 shows up, her shenanigans with the Doctor become probably the most enjoyable thing about the later seasons. It never really "gets good."
