Did you ever think the Enterprise was going to be destroyed when watching TOS/TNG?
Yes, when watching the original run of Best of Both Worlds.


This isn't even getting into the consideration that Starfleet vessels should be much, much more automated. Honestly, the computer should do most of the flying, under normal circumstances.
They do, that's what Evasive Patterns and Attack Patterns are.
 
As for the Gorn warping thing, I was also completely confused. I thought it was a sort of relay system that transports Gorn ships from between those two stars back to their homeworld? If so, I really don't understand whether that's a natural phenomenon, or why they put it between two binary stars, or what purpose it served, other than "we need a place where Gorn can surprise the Enterprise, and Enterprise can't call for help, but we don't want to use a nebula again"
Yeah what was the deal with these binary stars? It seems to me the Gorn ship entered a portal(?) or warped away to parts unknown, but then Una's talking about holograms and the Gorn homeworld? Was the homeworld in-between the binary stars?

The Gorn planet is in between the two stars. According to the technobabble at least, the gravity of the two stars bend light in a way that hide the planet.
 
Can you cite the episodes and dialogue that state this? Not that I'm doubting you but I'm wondering if micro-analyzing the lines themselves might provide some kind of explanation or wiggle room.
O'Brien figures out how to beam on to his old ship that his ex-captain is on. The one that was blowing up Cardassian ships.
