Do you think T'Pol...

Remember Archer going with Daniels, both to that city in the future, and to the Enterprise-J?

You're travelling forward in time right now - at a rate of one minute per minute.

True, I once wrote a paper on that very theme.

Wasn't Archer just along for the ride? Daniels was traveling to the past and back to his "present". I don't know if he ever traveled to his "future".

Most Trek time travel is to the past, but Berlinghoff Rasmussen (TNG's "A Matter of Time") was from the 22nd century and used a stolen 26th-century time-travel pod to travel forward. As pointed out above, Daniels' devices in ENT allowed travel both backward and forward. I think the past may be favored more by writers because they (as well as the audience) already know what it looks like, and thus it requires less explanation.

And may I also add...

"Yesterday's Enterprise."

When Trek characters go back in time to someone else's present in the past, they will eventually return to their own time, which will be moving forward in time to someone else's future. So Trek travels to the future always. Also, we've seen someone from the past (their present) joining the return trip to the future ( their future, someone elses present) many a time: Star Trek:The Voyage Home, Star Trek: Generations, TNG:Time's arrow, and so forth. It's all quite relative.

Yes, that can go from point A (their present) to point B (their past) and take someone from point B with them to point A, but can they go to point C (their future). Yesterday's Enterprise (as mentioned) goes from their present to the alternate future created by their disappearence, but that was an accident (IIRC). Are there any other times in Trek that someone travels to the future without using tech from the future or being a passenger/hitch-hiker?

Captain Kelsey Grammer did it...

So is the issue that they can't go forward in time, or that they can't intentionally go forward in time? You'd have to invent the method, but does that depend on where in time you gain the knowledge to do so? If Trek tech was capable of going forward in time say by the 25th century, would it only be possible then... is it all based on when a reliable method is discovered? If you can go back and forth, but go back and let someone else go forward, does that not count?
What if another race from another planet was capable of moving forward in time, but did so in Trek's history, maybe about the 20th century, does it count even if Starfleet never knew about it? What about Q?

[Nerys Myk]

I would think they can't intentionally go forward.(unless they are going back to the future.) Both the Bozeman and the Enterprise-C travelled forward by accident through a temporal rift.

Personally, I can see her being involved with the Vulcan Colony project. And I love the idea of her and Spock Prime. Because of her daughter with Trip, I always had this diea that she'd have been Spock's sponsor at the Academy. It would be interesting to see that explored in any of the new STXI novels from Pocket...

To jump back to this post, I feel the same way about a potential connection between Young Spock and T'Pol, and have written some fanfic material thusly. T'Pol was a forerunner to him, and especially after T'Pau's appearance in STE, there is a bridge between two families, or, rather, a connecting person. She knew the value of relationships with humans all too well, and I can see her as even a mentor to Sarek in his youth, learning the skills of diplomacy and interstellar poilitics... Granted, he would not be pleased that someone so connected with him supporting his son's 'rebellious' choice-and I am thinking here of TOS- in the Prime Timeline, it's a dynamic, whereas in Abramstrek, Sarek seems 'kinder, gentler', with all honor to Prime S, and Mark L, so, it could be different, at least to some extent, given the scenes we saw. On the topic of other Vulcans surviving, assuming someone didn't mention, I think Tuvok was born on what, the Vulcanis Colony....? I certainly HOPE he's alive in Abramstrek...

I was hoping for a T'pol cameo in the movie. But I'm not sure if she would be on Earth or Vulcan.

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ Probably Earth. She doesn't seem to like Vulcan that much anymore. She's spent too much time on Earth or the NX-01. I'm sure she will continue to live on Earth for most of her life.

According to Memory Alpha, Tuvok was born in 2264, six years after Star Trek tales place, so he's not even born yet. One would imagine that the destruction of the home world of his species would alter history enough that he would never have been born, but I guess one never knows if the universe will still "fate" him to be born (see Chekov)...

But when Trip died whatever BS, she might have went to vulcan to stop her emotional attachment.

Well, if we can buy that the same people would still be born in the Mirror Universe, which diverged from the Prime Universe ages ago (and don't get me started on all those myriad alternate universes in Trek Lit ), then why not?

[Cpt Cullison]

If T'pol was on vulcan at the time of the red matter process she may or may have not been on vulcan,now since she is in her early 100's she would most likey be on vulcan

[Nerys Myk]

Is there a law stating all Vulcans over the age of 100 must live on Vulcan?
