Here's one that seems to stump Star Trek fans (I know the answer): What was the impetus to start the war with the Dominion? Who started the war? What were the circumstances and why had we not gone to war until that point?
So simple, yet it stumps A LOT of Star Trek fans.
Didn't the Federation start it in DS9's "The Jem'Hadar" after invading their space twice (the second time with a Galaxy Class).
Hey
HIjol, are we answering to the best of our ability and then asking a question, or only asking if/when we're right?
My Question:
Who is Judith Sisko? (No googling)
Wait, are you saying the Dominion were just standing their ground?
If, upon entering the Gamma Quadrant, the Dominion sent out a ship and calmly communicated to them "This is our space, stay out of it or we'll blow you up", they most certainly would have done so. Its hard to say the Federation were the aggressor when they were given no reason to think they were unwelcome in the GQ until the point when they attacked New Bajor.
The action that heated up the cold war was mining the wormhole. The reason they had not gone to war at that point is that the Dominion prefers long term strategies to short term ones and would have rather divided AQ powers against themselves and slowly built up a power base in the AQ until they were so powerful any resistance would have been impossible. The action that started the cold war was the Dominion's unwarned violent response to the founding of a colony in the GQ.
I will guess that Judith Sisko is the woman who Ben grew up calling mother, based only on the fact she's the only other woman named Sisko we ever hear of.
What is the earliest appearance in a Trek series of an actor who played a main character in Voyager?
