Star Trek Questions.

[SiD the Turtle]

I have them all on DVD now, and even though the videos take up a huge amount of space, I can't bare to bin them because they cost a fortune! May go to a car boot or something.

Look where Brent Spiner's left hand is!!

"Whatcha' doin', Data?"
"Me? Oh, nothing...... humina,humina,humina"




Oh, and somewhere out in the garage I have a big box with all the Hallmark Christmas tree ornaments.....

humina, humina, humina... POW right in the kisser


Same with Deanna Troi's hand though

She just wants some Dorn lovin'.

Look at Frakes hand, its like chandler when he touches pheabes shoulder in the episode where they go head to head to see who pussies out first ( now the messers....become the messies!!........but they dont know that we know they know that we know)

Note the lack of a Death Star on that chart... I'd hazard a guess that it's the same size as the whole picture

[geek]

Drawn to scale this is how big the Second Death Star is.

[/geek]

 

[Mic]

Actually id say it would be even bigger. Just thinking of the SSD crashing into it in ROTJ. Should be bigger imho.

 

[SiD the Turtle]

Seriously, I thought it was bigger than that. *Remembers when the super star destroyer crashes on it*

Edit: Beaten to it

 

[dbmzk1]

The Second Death Star is 160km in diameter and the SSD is almost 18km long. The image I made is (roughly) to scale!

EDIT: Actually you were right, that was the wrong file. I deleted the good one by mistake and posted the one I meant to delete haha. I have updated the pic... its to scale now!

Did anyone else get annoyed when they used the delta flyer on st:voyager?
It seemed everytime they used it something went wrong, you'd think they'd at least of learnt that if they ever want to land on a planet they shouldnt take the flyer as it was bound to be hit by lightning (plasma) and its engines would fail

I think if i had to choose a best star trek series it would have to be DS9, it starts off slow but it really picks up for the last few seasons

Regards to the ship stopping when the engines stop, isnt it because of the warp field, im sure even at impulse the ship is encased in the field, it doesnt actually move but just warps space around it, so when the engines stop the field drops and the ship gets dropped into normal space or something?

 

[SiD the Turtle]

Nah Impulse only uses the strutural integrity fields as you can still go to near light speed with them. The warp engine would still be on mind, powering the ship.

My guess for the original OP would be that if the Impulse engines were shot at, or broke in some other fashion, the ship would continue based on the last force put on it (the drive of the impule engines or perhaps the energy of the torpedo that hit them etc). Thus they would apply the thrusters to bring the ship to a stop, rather than have it spin pointlessly through space.

I have the TNG tech manual around here somewhere, I'm sure that has something to say about it.

 

[Squark]

So does it go for the Futurama principle? Whereby the ship stays still and the universe moves around it

I like TNG best
Always preferred B5 over DS9

 

[Mic]

I have seen ships lose engine power and just drift in the many series.

Indeed. This is why in the episode Force of Nature some scientists prove that warp drive is damaging space as ships are pulling it in multiple directions at once. Imagine taking a piece of blue tack and pulling it apart. The bit in between goes weak, or in this case causing huge 'polluted' areas of space.

Worf killing Goran

You mean Gowron?

Oh I should have added that my theory is probably right except when dramatic effect takes over

Wow.

THAT'S NO MOON!!!

Thats the one. My lazyness to spell is my downfall.

Also, how can a hologram fall in love? That is just daft, it's made out of light.

I don't see why people think this is so unbelievable?

At the end of the day what are our brains? A complex collection of neurons to allow it to achieve a task.

Why is it inconcieveable that far, far in the future, they could create a similararly complex machine, which has a light interface? This idea has been around for ages, hence things like Terminator.

Right, now that i've taken that question far too seriously, Jadzia Daz, I'd hit it!

I've seen every episode of the franchise and killed a DVD player in the process. And by far the best is DS9. It was the last one I watched as I felt it was going to be a waste of time, but when the unbeatable Galaxy Class Starship gets annihilated by the [size=-1]Dominion.

Hmm, how much do you reckon you'll get for them?

How long would you estimate it'd take to build a full size death star though?
