/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

It's not necessarily my favorite episode but it pops up always when I think of ST

It's voyagers episode where they observe the planet which is in its own time pocket, so the whole evolution of the society happens in days from voys perspective

It would have to be "Chain of Command". there are FOUR lights

It's a really good episode in terms of a basic story and really good acting, but if you think about it, its both a really bad way of memorializing a civilization and a horrible thing to do to a person. They could have put the entire library of their civilization into that probe, but instead they decided to make a device to make a person live an imaginary life and then have to live with the loss of a family that he never actually met in the real world and it all felt far more real than anything the holodeck could do.

Hard to pick just one but probably TNG 4x19 "The Nth Degree". Love a good Barclay episode.

I love when Sci fi shows do the "person gets super duper smart" episodes.

Star trek and Stargate are my two favorites with this trope.

I think my all time favourite line from Stargate is when Carter explains the Uncertainty Principle to an advanced alien who replies "oh yes, one of the misconceptions of simple physics".

Voyager 5.17 "Course: oblivion"

Hell of an ending.
