how exactly did they misunderstand how the original changlings worked given they explained how these are different from them.
Is it possible that they read the extent of Odo's abilities from the Pilot of DS9 and assumed that that's all all Changelings can do?
29 years to get the D back. I always thought they'll probably salvage the saucer and they never did as far as we knew when the E was in First Contact and we never heard what happened to the D. I always hated that they destroyed the D so early on in its career. The original NCC 1701 was in service over 30 years. Probably close to 35 until Kirk destroyed it. The D probably still would have been in service if it wasn't half destroyed. It would be so cool if they recommisioned her and gave her to Riker to bring out every now and then as a Admiral. He loved yhe Enterprise D as much or even more so than Picard.
I got the impression Ro and Worf each had multiple agents and contacts investigating, and Raffi ended up finding the most promising lead so she and Worf ended up being Ro’s point-people by default.
I like Worf mentioning phasers. Let’s hope they bloody use them.
The 1701 lasted 40 years. 2245-2285
Exactly. The D is just shy of 36. Time to bring her back. Bring the hope and light back to the Federation and starfleet.
Now I see the misunderstanding: What I saw was: "And the added bulk of the third nacelle surely helps to make her more balanced. I think the Galaxy ships we see on later seasons of DS9 had those anyway.", that's why I connected those two.
It is true that Data and Wes often typed something, then looked at each other and nodded, and finished typing. That suggests that helm, navigation, warp activation are coordinated between both of them.
We saw that OPS and CONN had their respective controls, though we did no see that they still were like that as they typed XD
Here's how I see it: With nanoprobes, they can alter the brain however they want. Here they used a genetic access to the brain, and that needs to be specific for your purpose, so they had to target genes that do what they wanna do, but unfortunately these genes switch off after brain maturation.
Not junk, much better than crying baby Li2 boom.
There are genes that are only active during early development. Others are only active later. Many are switched on and off all the time depending on demands.
To alter so many brains, they'd have to capture everyone first and then keep them and do this manual alteration. Their genetic way is much more subtle, only detected when too late, and works on everyone using such an infected transporter. One small protein alteration that doesn't cause symptoms could be overlooked by standard scans.
Also note that future Janeway had a transceiver on her frontal lobe to control her shuttle...
Yes, it's a very convoluted interpretation that makes very little sense to me. Maybe just clickbait to get views?
Where is that from?I wonder how many people in the last 30 years had the idea of the E-D's resurrection in their fanfiction. I've thought up many different fan theories over the years and somehow I never thought of this one. I just assumed they chopped the saucer up into pieces and it was in some garbage dump or if it was ever going to make an appearance it would be like this one.
And it was made clear that the changelings took high levels of SFC, and that Geordi wrote several protest notes. If several powerful high-ranking Admirals order that, the lowlings do it. Anyone who questioned it probably was told "That's a stupid question." You'd be surprised how well it works

I remember thinking that for Online it would be wild to go to Veridian III and have the saucer still be there. I imagined someone walking around the corridors with vegetation pushed in through it and the player has to get a macguffin that was left on the saucer or something. I thought I could make a picture like that in Poser. Then I saw this artist do this picture and thought "Well they've already done what I want to do and so much better!"
Long term planning. The Borg will add your technological and biological distinctiveness to their own. It's inevitable so far as they're concerned. It's just a matter of time. The Borg have always been this relentless force, and obviously went quiet/dark after the destruction of Unimatrix 01. Meaning there's chess pieces on their board we'd never know about.
The Picard/Locutus Gambit being one of them. If they conquered the Federation using Locutus, then that plan worked. The Collective would have backups to the plans, however.
Like this is 5D Chess with multiverse timetravel levels of planning and possibility. Which the Borg really are the only ones capable of doing.
20+ years of career, clearly a captaincy that leads to her own ship, then being command of the Ent-F, the most decorated name in the entirety of Starfleet's history. She's also the "lead" speech giver for Frontier Day and so really only the first. Both Riker and Picard were to give speeches, suggesting a good portion of the day itself was being taken up steadily by legendary Starfleet Officers talking about their own experiences, hopes, dreams, what Starfleet means to them etc.
Federation Exceptionalism had been growing for a while. Being the main heavy lifter in the Dominion-Alpha Quadrant War, basically "Winning" where all previous likely rivals either being shattered (Romulan Star Empire, Borg) tamed (Breen, Klingon Empire) or otherwise not enough of a threat to really be considered a problem (Various smaller powers).
Splendid Isolationism dialed up to 11.
It's also been a Federation slowly turning in on itself, and perhaps rightly so. When you stand at a pinnacle with little in the way of real rivals you begin to only look upon yourself.
I always assumed it was a given it would be taken away with Veridian IV being inhabited with a pre warp society. That’s why it’s odd that Picard seemed confused why it was there. You’d think it’s former captain would know that
He probably just assumed that the Saucer was dismantled and disposed of given how damaged it was. In the William Shatner novel The Return, there is a scene depicting the saucer section is vaporised in segments if i remember correctly.
The memorial placards in the first episode of season two revealed already that the saucer was recovered and put into the museum. I guess Picard was just confused about the drive section.
Jurati won over the Borg Queen in Season 2 by pointing out that in every timeline known to the Borg, they always lose.
I did too but then I also thought these are the same guys who left Lore floating in space at the end of that episode so I couldn't rule anything out. I'm just more really interested in if there's some fanfiction where someone put the saucer together with another drive section in say 1998. I wonder if the existence of the E-E and "The Return" probably had a big influence on that not happening though.
Q junior would be very in keeping with the seasons themes. And he knows Seven.
It had already happened loads of time in the series, otherwise I would agree. Helm has a job, but it it doesn’t have to be them that does it, and definitely doesn’t have to be them that plots the course — as in the past, even Rikers done it from from his candy crush board in the horseshoe.
