In the curious case of Geordi's wild ride on the turbolift in "Contagion," it seems that the laws of physics have also taken a detour to explore the final frontier. As LaForge attempts to reach the bridge, the turbolift takes leave of its senses and accelerates to Mach 1, plastering him to the...

Throughout the run of Star Trek, from The Next Generation forward, two recurring tropes were always guaranteed to crop up during any given season: Q, and holodeck malfunctions. While the former was generally something to look forward to, the latter tended to feel like moments when the writers...

As discussed at length in another thread, the material composition of the sliding doors aboard the Enterprise-D is a thing shrouded in mystery and confusion. In some episodes, the doors are flimsy affairs that shatter when a human being is thrown through them; in others, they are indestructible...

So, with the grand announcement that Section 31 will now be developed as a made-for-TV movie rather than a series, speculation is rampant about everything from which characters will be involved to what the storyline will be. I'm kind of hoping that it'll have something to do with time travel...

As a die-hard Trekkie, I was thrilled when Star Trek Picard hit the screens, introducing a dark, gritty, and unflinching take on the beloved universe. The producers of the new series painted bold strokes, never shying away from showing vomiting, eyeball horror, gory fatalities, and the slow...

Hey, gang - Real talk for a second. In the mid-2360s, the average Away Team leader had access to a plethora of equipment options; amongst them, the venerable Mark VII science tricorder, and the much more robust, more capable Mark VII medical tricorder. My question is pretty straightforward: is...

Between Star Trek: Discovery and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, it seems that the Enterprise has undergone several subtle but noticeable changes. For example, the bridge appears to be a bit smaller, the corridor around the bridge looks to have been removed, and the set decorator with the neon...

There used to be this awesome website at http://star-trek.answers.wikia.com/ called "Star Trek Answers" where one could go to ask the more esoteric questions, like, "why gates left the show," "in what episode did georgie say i can't see," and "how is babby formed." Sadly, after an extended...

So I know that inconsistencies, plot holes, and storyline absurdities are basically hallmarks of Star Trek Enterprise, but one thing in particular really stands out to me as a total cop-out by the writers: the fact that, by season 2, the crew had conveniently unlocked safe use of the...

Forgive me if this had been posted somewhere already (it seems that's frequently the case) but has anyone taken the time to examine existing plot points to project what the Picard Show is going to be about? From my research, TNG seems to give us some tantalizing hints: - Picard will be retired...

Star Trek: The Next Generation question: curious about what the fan population's opinion is - do you prefer the collarless tank-top-like jumpsuit uniforms of the first couple of seasons of The Next Generation, or the high-collared, two-piece ones that appeared in later seasons (and which...

Captain Lorca's 'big secret' has been revealed, and with the character vilified, dead and vaporized, and Chrispher Pike in command of Discovery, it seems like Jason Isaacs has a perfect exit opportunity. Isaacs was reticent from beginning about playing Captain Lorca (and to a certain degree...

Title says it all. In an April social media post, John Eaves confirmed that the look & feel of Star Trek: Discovery had to be modified to meet the conditions of the ridiculous licensing situation that CBS has gotten into with themselves - to such an extent that the design of the USS Enterprise...

I stumbled across this article today, which talks about the current status about the Star Trek Discovery Tardigrades plagiarism lawsuit. It seems that CBS / Netflix feel like they need more time to respond to it (a red flag, in my opinion, given that the typical boilerplate response to a...

Hey gang - There's an episode of the original series - I can't remember which one - where Spock gets really really really riled up about something, and proceeds to smash the personal viewer on his desktop repeatedly with his fist. The viewer doesn't shatter, nor does it cave in. It sort of just...

Hear me out on this one. Discovery is maybe going to be going on a deep space mission in an age before replicators or spacecraft with huge amounts of storage space. Wouldn't it make sense for the ship to be self-sufficient when it comes to food provisions? If the crew can raise and slaughter...

Ok, here's something I've been wondering for a long time - what is the 'remove' capability of the average replicator? In Star Trek: The Next Generation, we see instances in which our favorite characters clean up after a meal by picking up the dirty dishes placing them in the replicator, and...

So I'm really confused about something. We see Data pull off flawless imitations of his shipmates on multiple occasions, such as the episodes "Encounter at Farpoint" and "Brothers." He does this so convincingly that even the computer is fooled in the latter episode. Yet, in "Angel One," we are...

Hey all - Going to Keystone Comic-Con next weekend. There's supposed to be a pre-con cosplay pool party, and I thought it'd be a good excuse to actually cosplay wearing the outfit my screen name pays homage to - Picard's nut-smashing, gold Speedo. The only problem is, I don't have one. The...
