      Agreed. I remember when "relics" aired, I had hoped that a new series would be created with Scotty leading a team of engineers figuring out the mysteries of the Dyson Sphere. Sadly it never happened. But maybe one of the "New Trek" shows could revisit it and talk about the research that took place.

      @rickee2652 Год назад +6

      Yes it was but it doesn't invalidate a fun mess with your mind reference. The enterprise D was less a warship and more an armed cruise liner so having a bar was going to happen. As such having it in the forward part makes sense, its the best view while you relax. If the ship is in a fight it still makes sense. In general quarters the bar should be empty and acts as an extra bit of armour, its not functionally necessary after all. No future mind stuff needed, just a bit of luck. Its a nice, if unsubtle, touch to Guinans power and humanity.

    I always thought the Borg time travel was a closed loop, to explain why the Borg we're headed to Earth, since, if Q is to be believed, they were already headed to Earth anyway, and he just introduced the Enterprise D to them to make the crew aware of what was coming.

    • @silversonic1

      However, Guinan knew that Q sending the Enterprise to meet the Borg was far earlier than was supposed to happen, adding to Guinan's often mysterious nature. But given that Star Trek is a multiverse where time travel technically causes characters to hop realities, it's not impossible for time travel to loop on itself and make a seeming paradox.

She's always been cryptic about her relationship with Picard, even telling him that the time he thought was the first time they met actually wasn't. If anything, she kind of comes off as a Time Lord. And since I'm a season behind on Picard(waiting for Lower Decks to come back before resubscribing to Paramount+), all I can say about her and Q is that she and Q have a rather hostile relationship. She was one of the only ones to believe he had been depowered, stabbing him in the hand to demonstrate it. Q is one of the only beings capable of making Guinan lose her somber attitude. Guinan is also one of the only beings Q has shown open animosity towards as well.

    10:23 - #2 (The Destroyed Borg Sphere from First Contact) - In my mind, this episode actually helps explain events that already exist in canon. In Star Trek - The Next Generation S1 E26 "The Neutral Zone" (26-Mar-2364), the Borg have been busy destroying outposts along both sides of the Federation/Romulan "Neutral Zone", we never see the Borg in that episode, just the aftermath. We later learn in S2 E16 "Q Who" (28-Jan-2365) that the Borg was the enemy back in "The Neutral Zone" (Which means if Q hadn't flung the Enterprise to meet the Borg, the Borg would still have tried to assimilate the Federation. Q let them know about the Borg and gave them time to come up with plans to stop the Borg (Ex. The USS Defiant)). The Borg then reappeared in S3 E26 "The Best of Both Worlds - Part 1" (31-May-2366) and S4 E1 "The Best of Both Worlds - Part 2" (05-Jun-2366). While "Q Who" answered questions raised in "The Neutral Zone" the question came up, why was the Borg there? A partial explanation comes in Star Trek - Voyager S4 E6 (11-Feb-2374) in which Tuvok scans the USS Raven (NAR-32450) and tritanium decay places it as being there for almost the last 20 years. Which means 7 of 9 was assimilated around 11-Feb-2354, or 10 years before the events of "The Neutral Zone". But more questions are raised. Her parents had heard whispers about the Borg and had gone to Starfleet to secure a ship (The USS Raven) to find them. Furthermore, they find a Borg ship and follow it from the Alpha Quadrant to the Delta Quadrant. All this means that about 11 years before "Q Who", the Borg had explored Federation space, and assimilated 7 of 9 and her parents. (So those 'fans' who still think Q introduced the Borg to the Federation are once again proven wrong). But it still raised the question, why was the Borg exploring Federation space back in 2354? They had no reason to. When you watch the episodes in order, you notice the Borg are exploring, but not outright engaging in ship to ship battle, unless provoked (By the USS Raven). It's as if they were told to come check out Federation space and they checked it out before sending a ship to assimilate the Federation. Then we take the final piece of the puzzle in Star Trek Enterprise S2 E23 "Regeneration" (01-Mar-2153) as a message is sent from the Borg survivors to the collective in the Delta Quadrant. They explain the message won't get to them for 200 years. Which would be around 01-Mar-2353. The year before 7 of 9 was assimilated. Now the loop is closed and it all starts to make sense. Including why the Borg went back in time. Picard assumed it was to stop First Contact. In reality they had 2 goals (Try and stop First Contact and Send the message to the Borg so they will get the message on 01-Mar-2353 and assimilate 7 of 9)

    3 - One minor correction. It was actually the specific radiation emitted by their new experimental warp drive that caused them to break down; they were functioning just fine before that point. It was projected to be harmless to humans and the like, but because they forgot they were made from 'the silver blood', they were unaware of its effects on their specific construction. Since the ship was also made from this mimetic substance, it was affected just as severely. It's actually pretty depressing that the ship and its crew were so completely destroyed, leaving no record of their existence beyond any contact they might have had with other races, but even that would be attributed to the original Voyager crew (though they'd have no memories or record of it, of course).

      spot on - if you look at the Michael and Denise Okuda tech manual that came out in the mid or late 90s at some point, they showed how there was more unused space on the ship than one would expect. Vast storage warehouses, and many completely empty cargo bays that could quickly be converted for mass casualty transport, etc. They may have implied in one of the episodes that the "Irish folk" were in some main room, but the reality is there was more than enough space to hide them away in some lower deck of the saucer without any of the command staff having to deal with them (some Ensign or Lieutenant would lead a team to guard them, provide for their needs and wants, etc).

    One alternative theory I have about the Borg episode actually addresses an issue with Q's character. In the episode of TNG, Q flings the Enterprise D at the Borg and they now know about the vast new area of assimilation targets from the computer and are headed toward the Alpha Quadrant. With just that information, Q is a pompous arrogant prick who caused the deaths of everyone who died during the conflict with the Borg because Picard wouldn't grovel. With the Enterprise episode, we see that the Borg get a signal off and that they will be alerted to the Alpha Quadrant. That means that they didn't learn about the Alpha Quadrant's population because of the Enterprise D. They were likely already on the way there and Q knew this. Q has shown time and time again that, while his methods may seem chaotic and barbaric, everything that he does is for the betterment of life overall (or at least humanity overall). This didn't mesh with the idea that he would create a conflict with the Borg out of spite but it fits perfectly with the idea that he was warning Picard of what was coming and dressed it up as a lesson in humility. The only issue with this theory that I can find is that the Borg were only on Earth in the past because of the events in First Contact which only happened because Q launched the Enterprise D at the Borg, but that issue is solved by the whole thing being one big temporal loop.

      If I remember correctly, the industrial replicators were able to build large scale stuff but they were less precise and were more like big 3D printers.

      The usage of the Iconian Teleporter was a big plot hole in Picard. Because it was stated explicitly that it was *not* Iconian but instead a Sikarian spatial trajector. This technology was only able to operate by using the quarz mantle of the Sikarian planet as a projection surface. That is why Voyager and the Federation were unable to replicate the technology. It was useless without the planet as projection amplifier.

    There was a whole time travel two parter in Voyager called Future’s End. This wasn’t the last time travel episode, as there was also Relativity. In both, we see Captain Braxton as the man who wants to destroy Voyager. In the first, he’s under orders because the ship’s hull is found amid a destroyed solar system in the future. In the later episode, he has planted a bomb on Voyager and complains that he blames the ship and crew for some awful life experiences. Another officer does comment that Voyager shows up on sensors too often. This whole thing opens up many questions: at what point does Starfleet start policing the timeline, to what extent did they play a role in the Temporal Cold War in Enterprise and how are they choosing when to intervene or not?

    I may be wrong, but I believe the replicators need more than energy, they also need material mass. I seem to remember the replicator use on Voyager being limited to only so much per person and it took more of that measure to replicate something made of gold, a more dense material. Voyager wasn't rationing energy, they had enough to function with al the ship's abilities, but they did not have material or mass on hand to use to be replicated.
    I also remember there being certain materials that were not able to be replicated. This is because of their specific structure not the amount of energy needed. This is what makes Dilithium Crystals and Latinum worth so much, because unlike gold or platinum they can't be replicated. If it was only a matter of energy then this should not be true.
    There is also a major flaw in continuity that Guinan looked young in Picard when she looked the same when they met her in San Francisco in 1890's, and she didn't remember Picard even tho she had met him before. This is not a problem if Picard happened in an alternate timeline but so far nothing else has indicated that this is true.

      that's an easy explanation.. it's because Voyager kept stopping to explore every last speck of space dust they ran across.. Also, star trek frequently explains that at least for the Federations, they cannot maintain maximum warp for very long.. their cruising speed is actually much lower than their maximum so if they are cruising more often than not, and stopping to look at every comet and last little thing they find, its easy to understand how others catch up to them if they have no interest in exploration, just a single minded goal of catching voyager. And eventually, Voyager does get far enough out, different species give up because they do not have the speed or range to continue.

I'm not convinced that the writers completely forgot about that two-part episode from TNG either because they seemed to capitalize on the fact that we (as the viewers) would not question Guinan's presence on Earth in the 21st Century since we already learned of her presence there in the 19th Century during the original TNG series.

      I think people are looking for complicated explanations when a simple one like this would suffice, altho I do not personally believe this one. I think it's much more likely that Deck 10: Forward was probably some sort of observation deck or conference room that was converted into a taproom. Voyager also did this out of neccesity altho they did the reasonable thing of converting an already existing mess-hall. With 10: Forward It would be especially easy since, unlike Voyager and the need to install a full kitchen, Enterprise could just use it's replicators. So just replicate a bar to stick in there, replicate in some tables and extra chairs, let Guinan provide all her real liquor to stock the shelves and use the replicators for synthehol or food. Boom, an otherwise boring room with a nice view is quickly and easily converted into the favorite hangout of everyone on the ship.

      Any ship capable of replicating enough new hull plating to look pristine all the way to the end is capable of replicating shuttle parts. Just a matter of allotting time and resources, and most certainly not standard procedure intended to be done on Intrepid class ships. The biggest issue I could possibly see is the fuel (antimatter can't be replicated, deuterium's hard to make) being put into them and being blown up, straining Voyager's main reserves, but it may also have saved a bunch because a shuttle needs less than taking entire Voyager everywhere.

      Well, they established that Soong-type androids could learn to mind-meld, specifically Sutra. With it being established that melds *with* sentient machines were possible by Spock, and the Vulcan nerve pinch was possible to learn by Data and Burnham, it seemed just the next logical step that Sutra, a sentient machine at least as intelligent as Data, could learn to mind-meld with other lifeforms (I know a lot of fans particularly disliked that, but I found it no more out-there than anything else in Trek). So, its plausible that were a Vulcan present, they likely could have mind-melded with Data.
      Now, the writers were unlikely to go in that direction. There was a reason there was so few Vulcans on the Enterprise-D - Roddenberry didn't want to rehash old aliens, and was even opposed to Worf being a character for that very reason.

    Looks like no one really remembers the Iconians. The concept of long distance transporter technology did appear in both Star Trek The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine. Long story short, there was an alien race called Iconians that developed a means of travel where someone could instantly transport from one point in space to another regardless of distance. Picard and his crew encountered it in the Alpha Quadrant and Sisko and his crew encountered it in the Gamma Quadrant. In a way, I guess its information like this that really shows who is a true follower of Star Trek and who is not.

The Nexus is like traveling at warp 10...at warp ten you touch all points in the universe simultaneously...infinite speed. In the Nexus, you touch all points in time simultaneously...infinite knowledge of time and it's flow. The limit then becomes the traveler...how much can you retain? How much can you understand?

      The video mentions that industrial replicators were talked about before. The writer's point is that we don't know what industrial replicators made, but this is the first time we've seen them make anything and this one is specifically making vehicles. The other ones may have been making large components, or maybe they were just producing on an industrial scale.
      Following the theme of the video you could say that the mentions of them in DS9 foreshadowed what was seen in Prodigy. But it seems like Marcus's point is that the ones in DS9 were not capable of doing what we saw in Prodigy, hence it's an evolution of technology.
