Its called........Rike-angle.iCraig said:
Is it just me, or does whenever Riker walk, he rests his head on one shoulder?
So basically his face is like diagonal. What's the deal with that?
It gives him an imporved vision angle sp he can see more of his surroundings. Ready for a sneak attack.
Fact.

I hope you are happy!
Ah but it's not really travelling faster than light, it's merely taking a kind of "short cut" by distorting subspace via Asymetric Peristaltic Field Manipulationsquiffy said:Interia dampners.
My favourite example of technical terminology is with regards to the transporters. One of the biggest problems with transporter technology is the Heisenberg uncertainty principle which states that you cannot know both the exact position and velocity of a particle at the same time. How did they get round this? With a magic box of tricks called the Heisenberg Compensators
One thing that's kind of annoyed me recently with regard to Trek tech and lore is the Klingons. As we all know, in the original series the Klingons looks virtually human, the large foreheads appearing in the films and then the later TV series.
The writers bumped their heads against this one rather hard in the DS9 episode "Trials and Tribblations", as they had to mix the new cast into one of the bar scenes from the original "The Trouble with Tribbles" episode, where the Klingons were of the original "human" type.
They decided to write this so that, when the DS9 crew see how the older Klingons looked and query Worf about it, he merely answers "we do not discuss it with outsiders". The writers effectively sidestepped the whole issue and refused to explain it.
Given Trek's obsession with having a plausible explanation for everything, this was a very refreshing change of attitude and many applauded it. Unfortunately it appears that many fans didn't appreciate it and wanted a better explanation, which I find frankly pathetic. I suspect it was this pressure which led to the writers of Enterprise finally relenting and decided to try to explain what happened to cause the difference in appearance. I thought this was a total cop-out myself.
PS. Yes I'm a Trek geek, so shoot me
Ah good old STinSV.com, that site was mega in its day. The two guys that founded and maintained it were mates of mine, twas a huge undertaking.EVH said:Tuvok

I'll shoot you in a moment, Stun or kill?
Explain to me what the reason is please? or point me somewhere that will tell me, I've been deadly curious since they made that statement in DS9 but didn't really get into Enterprise so I was not aware.

Hell yeah
Super Star Destroyer > Any Ship
And when Any Ship > Super Star Destroyer, then Death Star > Any Ship
But the diddlio about the movement and anti friction in space...consider this...when Voyager is in space (taking into consideration space is a giant vacuum) then who does Voyager make revving noises when it goes?
It's all part of the cinema trick to lure you into flase reality

Three her storylines were interesting. Oh and I forgot to add, she has a nice borg ass too

They explained that in an episode of enterprise (it was some experiment that mixed klingon DNA with that of genetically enhanced people like Kahn)Vertigo1 said:

Note the lack of a Death Star on that chart... I'd hazard a guess that it's the same size as the whole picture
Rather complicated but basically it revolved around a misguided attempt to blend Klingon DNA with that of the "augments", genetically enhanced humans created by a certain Dr.Soong (an ancestor of Noonian and played by Spiner).Velocity219e said:
The result was a contamination of the Klingon species with human DNA which caused the temporary change of appearance which accounts for the original series. By the time of the films and TNG, they had reverted to their original appearance.
It's all in season 4 of Enterprise if you want to skip the first 3
