He must be able to do the 10 meter corridor run in 0.2 seconds with his bulk and weight...
in TFF they were behind a ridge and Spock adjusted the yield. Narrow beam versus wide beam.
How did Spock adjust the torpedo yield? Kirk ordered Sulu and Chekov to fire a torpedo on their position and Chekov responded with concern that they might be hurt or killed. Spock doesn't say a word about the torpedo or its yield.
Soong looks to be in fairly decent physical shape. I'm sure he managed.
There was no adjustment made. Spock was diving behind a rock like everyone else. They were all being protected by plot armor.
Spock was in command of the BOP!
Um, no. He was the gunner. The General was put in charge of the BOP.
you’re talking about later in the film: earlier the enterprise fires torpedoes at “god” and Spock is on the surface.
Yes so Spock was the gunner and doing precision firing.
Except the Enterprise shot down first before they were all beamed up, as noted by @jackoverfull
i was talking about near the end when the General has commandeered the BOP.
I remember Spocking swinging round in the gunnery chair.
The Major Gin video, though I'm not a big fan of them, sort of just "confitms" my thoughts on the tension between Picard and Robert, it was because of Picard's defiance of the family traditions and him being able to break riles without consequences. I doubt that means Jean-Luc's actions led to their mother killing herself.
It doesn't work for me, it feels forced, and teally it's a stretch that this bug was in Picard's mind for the last 90 years and never impacted him.
It's just a dumb thingvthey threw in there fir pseudo/manufactured drama and I disregard it. It doesn't fit wirh how I see Picard and the relationship with his brother and family. In "Tapestry" a vision of his father admonishes Picard for going off too join Starfleet and dying before his time, trying to be the intrepid explorer; not running from the memory if his mother's death.
Picard's mother lived to a nice old age (though possibly still died "young" for the time, but his father did too) and never hung herself in the observatory because she suffered from a mental illness she refused help on and no one could give her help for.
My head canon, my choice.

Meanwhile on episode 10......
Makes perfect sense based on past evidence.
How do you feel about the revelation Lxanana Troi was secretly carrying a horrific pain from a dead child?

Part of why I like these revelations is that in addition to "humanizing" our protagonists, they are rarely the ONLY thing guiding them. Picard's mother committing suicide had an effect on him certainly and undoubtedly severely impacted his relationship with his father.
However, it's just one chapter in a very long life made a lot of events that impacted him. Picard was shaped by getting stabbed in the heart, the Stargazer, the Borg, and lots of things we know about. We're always finding out new things about Jean Luc because he's someone who has led a life of many such events.
Wasn't really a fam of that either. That's pretty much a "skip episode" for me.
