The following is an alteration of the Equinox ending - and while its not explicitly covered, it stands to reason the crew would have informed Ransom of the upgrades (knowledge of which would have allowed the series of events to proceed largely as they have - with the following adjustments). Oh...

I can see it work that way very easily. But what about the Animated series (I do believe that it was retconned to being part of the canon by Roddenberry himself when he was speaking to the crowd at a convention, but I can't find the actual proof of same) since most people consider it to be "the...

Lance Corporal Kelley never saw the inside of a cell within the barracks brig facility. Since her arrival, Gunnery Sergeant Michaela Nickleman treated her as an honored guest. The only order she received was to remain in the NCO lounge and stay within sight of the guards. That part was simple...

Of course, if the spacecraft is in a magnetic or electric field. it should be possible to use electromagnetic force to move without chucking out mass. Failure of imagination on my part...

Armageddon Daryna’s palm opened the door to her living space, allowing the soft lighting of her apartment to spill into the hallway. The space was generous by Buck’s 21st Century standards: two bedrooms, a sleek kitchen alcove, and a central living area arranged with comfort in mind rather than...

Historical Footnote In a conscious effort to move beyond the life he knew he could never return to, Buck focused on the shuttle flight. He replayed the skirmish in his mind, the tactics they used, the limits of their flight envelopes, and the moments after leaping into the unknown. He remembered...

Hail Mary Buck watched as several bystanders dragged the unconscious form of Mon Grol out of the room. The doors sealed behind his limp form with a heavy, echoing clang. For a long moment, no one spoke. The old ship creaked faintly in the wind outside. The lights buzzed. A console somewhere let...

The Disintegrator The air in the debriefing room was thick with the sharp scent of jet fuel, overcooked wiring, and stale coffee. A low hum of conversation hovered beneath the fluorescent lights, punctuated by the rhythmic clicking of keyboards and the dry rustle of paper. The sterile...

They are basically talking about a perpetual motion machine. My initial instinct is to believe they are misinterpreting the observations or missing some other force(s) involved. For example. Looking at a spinning wheel, sometimes, as our brains and eyes take in the visual information at a...

Interesting observation there that the theory explains the Aharonov-Bohm effect, but this is also explainable in existing gauge theory. I wonder if they can include the weak and strong nuclear forces, however. I would hope they've verified that the theory is Lorentz invariant so, for example...

Instead, a two-dimensional swirl of blue and gray smoke filled the doorway, rippling like mist over still water. The haze seemed to inhale. It paused and then exhaled two figures. Their movements were fluid and dreamlike as if time itself had slowed to let them pass. A man stood calmly in the...

Worf stepped forward, arms folding with solemn precision. “I know someone who can help us bait them into the open,” Worf said, his tone grim and deliberate. “Someone who feeds on the edge of respectability.” Seven arched a brow, recognition dawning. “I think I know who you mean,” she replied...

Then, just as the mood threatened to settle too heavily over the room, Trescha pivoted—sharp, deliberate. She turned back to Worf with a teasing grin, her tone effortlessly playful. “Hey,” she mused, her eyes flicking over him with mock curiosity. “Do those bumps on your head mean you’re...

All Along Stardate 60122.30 STARFLEET SECURE LOG ENTRY Emergency Command Hologram – Mark IV (ECH Janeway) Ship: USS Protostar NX-76884 The Protostar remains in deep-space operation, far beyond the reach of formal Starfleet infrastructure. We are currently in motion with the Protostar Drive...

Unwanted Visitor A tingling sensation crawled over Trescha’s skin as the force field at the shuttle bay threshold fought to slow her—but it failed. She surged forward, unimpeded, hurtling into the void. She could feel her arms and legs flailing like a triple jumper after her running leap toward...

Beverly folded her arms. “Should I replicate a supply of anti-radiation rations for the crew?” La Forge shook his head. “I don’t think you’ll need to. The duration of the exposure will be brief, and the hull will take the brunt of it.” He exhaled, glancing at Picard. “If this works, Captain...

“Grumpy?” Trescha shrugged. “Nicknames stick when someone earns them.” Beverly gave a soft chuckle, then frowned as she examined the readout. The readings were… normal. Or rather, too normal, given the circumstances. Troi, watching carefully, decided to interject. “You seem remarkably...

Harriman sighed but said nothing. Pelia’s persistent, knowing smirk remained unchanged as acting executive officer Demora Sulu’s voice spoke from everywhere. “We have the Superspace Fold on long-range sensors. The coordinates and course we were provided are off. But, the variance is under two...

50th Anniversary Viewing The Six Million Dollar Man "The Bionic Woman: Part II" Originally aired March 23, 1975 Richard Anderson narrates a relatively short recap of the previous episode--and not in character, he refers to Oscar in the third person. When Steve and Jaime take another horse...

I'm going to start by saying that I know that there will be some disagreement about this. Here goes: I believe that TOS covered all 5 years of James Kirk's 5 year mission on the Enterprise (NOT just the first 3 years). Hear me out: going by the stardates given in most episodes, the stardates...
