Hello,
I'm a newbie hoping that fellow Star Trek fans will be able to resolve a minor disagreement that I've had with some friends concerning a particular scene. I'd really appreciate any insight you may be able to offer because its doing my head in.
This is what happened.. we were in the pub taking about anthropology and undiscovered peoples perhaps living in the Amazon... (as you do!)
Somebody then mentioned Star Trek and a scene where scientists from the federation were "observing" a primitive society. I remembered it as an episode of the Next Generation but others remembered it as a scene from the film Insurrection.. but both of us remember a viewing hide behind some kind of force-field camouflage on a rock face ?? I then remembered the film scene also.. Data I think fires at the rock face but the story I'm remember was different.. I remember it all being about the prime directive and the women leader of the society being taken to the enterprise and shown her world.
Please somebody tell me that you know what I'm rambling on about? Were there two scenes both involving viewing hides on primative society's.. one in the film and one in an episode of NG?
Cheers
Salt
