And yet, in this season part of the reason for the holodeck testing was that they're pioneering ships being able to stay out for longer periods, meaning they're not there yet.

And just to add to all that, apparently this planet is the same one referred to by Trelane as "the old home world", so did this hyperdimensional immortality treatment result in the Q? Are these evil hitchhikers some form of proto-Q, or just something they unleashed along the way to their...

In Kirk's era it's the five year mission, so they need to be able to operate for longer periods far from support, and have specialised staff to cover their wider mission profile (like they have a dedicated historian in Space Seed). And yes, as @Ryujin says, plenty of replacement redshirts. :)

I believe it was mentioned previously that the 210 is consistent with the figure given for Pike's Enterprise as of The Cage, and it does help to explain those empty corridors.

For me this week's episode is the best of the season so far. We get some classic Trek investigation-of-alien-civilisations on the away mission, with a nice puzzle-solving flavour, and meanwhile some slow-build psychological horror back aboard the Enterprise. Thankfully, while there is a...

Circle of Life by Elton John from The Lion King. That one had me crying right from the opening of the movie, and there's nothing intrinsically sad about the scene.

I stopped playing quite awhile ago, but I got into some really silly designs by the end, just because I could.

Yeah, from the viewppint of knowing TOS, she realises that Spock is acting out of character because he's acting like the Spock we know.

Yeah, they reference it near the start of the episode, saying that the holodeck would be a combination of the battle simulator and the recreation room. I think the "battle simulator" part is an attempt to address them having shown a holographic training simulation in the first season of Star...

Overall I liked the episode. The premise was a bit flimsy, but ultimately it was just an excuse to get everyone into costumes to play very different characters than they usually do. Also, congrats to them on checking off pretty much every box on the holodeck-malfunctions bingo card. I didn't...

It's a pretty old game now and has its quirks and bugs. You'd probably have a perfectly good time playing it now, but I personally won't be going back to it anytime soon without the remaster.

What do they have against snakes?

So it would seem.

EDIT: Nevermind, wrong thread.

Or, really, any era other than far-flung future.

So, Starfleet Academy is a spaceship now. Makes sense, given that the Federation as a whole was space-based for quite awhile. I wonder whether San Francisco is its formal location now, or if it travels frequently between Federation worlds.

It's the new "the aliens have invaded to steal our water!"

I enjoyed it. I've never read the book, so can't tell you how faithful it is, but it was some impressive worldbuilding and I liked the main characters.

Just once I'd like to see a War of the Worlds adaptation set in the 1890s.
