Has it ever occurred to you that a tachyon beam directed at a class B itinerant pulsar could produce enough gravimetric energy to create an artificial singularity?

Her pharmaceutical one had me dying.

Especially since I have this running gage where every few months I ask people if they've ever had deja vu.

I guess today's the day!

If you have Spotify, look up "nerdcore"- it's an entire rap genre of all this stuff.

It’s not nerdcore but goth icon Aurelio Voltaire has a Trek album and he performs at Trek cons.

His album “Bitrektual” has songs like “The Sexy Data Tango” and “The USS Make Shit Up” as well as a Doctor Who bonus song “It’s Bigger on the Inside”

At the speeds those ships travel (more accurately, accelerate, aka. turn, speed up and slow down) "Inertial dampeners just went offline" should be treated with similar concern as "The Borg have kidnapped the entire crew and are ten seconds away from dissecting every single one of them."

If they're at Impulse, yeah. If they're at Warp then there's no kinetic energy to worry about.

I dunno, usually when they're fighting the show shows them moving at speeds that can be measured in meters per second and fighting at ranges of hundreds of meters. There's fleet battles with -accidental collisions- and ramming manuevers. Their straight-line speed is crazy, but when it comes time to fight it seems they move like fast oceangoing naval vessels.

I loved the way the expanse deals with space battles, especially the books. It would be the sane here. They would be moving just as fast but would no longer be accelerating heavily. All the ships in the battle are only stationary realitive to each other.

yup, or the deflector shields being offline while travelling at significant speeds... space dust with the destructive power of warheads lol

Don't forget the complementary tumor removal as hydrogen atoms get co-opted into proton therapy.

I've always seen it as the deflector doing its job so the shields don't have to. Plus, most ships have an auxiliary deflector on the saucer.

Ok, uninvited nerding, but fast travel in trek is achieved by warping space and passing at normal thrust through space that is instead crumpled up like an accordion. So on a theoretical level they might be going faster than light (relatively), they're not going that fast themselves. They still have starship levels of thrust/speed to worry about, but it won't become theoretical supernovas at higher warp speeds.

That's only warp. Full impulse was a max of 0.92c which, yes, small particles would've been catastrophic.

2 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Not catastrophic, just 14m deep, 10m wide craters on the front sections of the ship... and you would probably only hit a few dozen at most.

I'm pretty sure I read a story where if the inertial dampers failed on a ship underway, it wasn't an issue. Because the entire crew would be reduced to red mist before they even realized they had a problem.

Only if they stop or start suddenly.

2 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

From what I remember the point of the dampeners was that you weren't affected by the acceleration as long as it was active. If it failed and the ship was moving at say .2 C that is when it gets messy. So when they did fail the entire crew was basically an egg fired into a brick wall at 20% light speed.

2 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

Again. Only if they start or stop moving while the internal dampeners have failed. They don't keep you from coming up to speed forever, they would let you come up to speed slowly. However, if they were still in the process of normalizing and you suddenly gained .4c, yeah.. pink mist. If they had caught up, then your inertia would be the same as the ship. Like how we're moving at well over a million miles an hour through space, but we are equal to Earth's inertia.
