General Trek Questions and Observations

Here's a slightly extended (probably unedited) version of one of my favorite scenes from TNG. Data shares a little extra wisdom, and even calls Riker by name.

I love "Measure of a Man." It is firmly lodged in the TNG definitively classic episodes bucket for me.

Best of Both Worlds, Parts I & II
The Inner Light
Yesterday's Enterprise
Chain of Command, Parts I & II
The Measue of a Man
All Good Things (2 HR episode).

There are certainly others that come close (Darmok, Tapestry, Lower Decks, Family, Cause & Effect, The Offspring, etc), but those 6 are just tops for me.

If you asked me for a top 10, 7-10 might vary depending on the day, but those top 6 would not.


YMMV, of course..
 
There’s too much TNG that I haven’t seen for years. I really need to resubscribe to Netflix (we still have the whole catalog - minus movies - on there in Vietnam).
 
I have two questions:

1. when was the replicator first created?

2. Is ENT the first warp 5 ship making a trip outside our solar system? Or the first ship in general? I can't remember.

I'm making a Star trek comic takes place in 2060 and really hope the answer would be before 2060 and the first warp 5 ship. Because otherwise I'll missed up cannon and I can't have that.
 
1. Sometime after 2293, at least the first Starfleet replicator. Before then it was food and protein synthesizers and shipboard delivery systems.

2. The first of both. Enterprise NX-01 didn't actually crack Warp 5 until she was well outside Earth's solar system AND she was humanity's very first Warp 5-capable spacecraft. Both happened in 2151.
 
And what about food synthesisers? When were they created?

But in PIC they were able to go Europa, which would take years to go there. It would be the first five years mission, would it not?
 
They existed by 2151. Before that we see none in flashback sequences from before ENT. So maybe the 2140s?
 
But in PIC they were able to go Europa, which would take years to go there. It would be the first five years mission, would it not?

Nuclear-powered engines to achieve impressive impulse velocities for early 21st century human spacecraft. It made them faster but it likely still took months to get to Europa.
