Was there a barber on the Voyager that cut everyones hair, or did Janeway keep her own hair trimmed during the entire course of the trek?

I just wonder why you didn't see people having there hair slowly grow out as the show went on.

Neither. They rarely leave the galaxy and most of the time it's by accident. Interstellar I guess.

I'm pretty sure that happened with Kirk in the original series, not Picard. But either way, yeah, there's some sort of magical plothax barrier that prevents anyone in the series from leaving our galaxy through normal means.

>>2751695
Any subspace travel does this damage. Starfleet decided to limit normal space travel to warp 5 and below to limit/slow the damage since stronger warp fields required for faster do a lot more damage a lot faster.

And Picard didn't find it out himself, some alien bitch did and killed herself in a M/AM explosion to prove her point.

Wormholes are normal means, right? Because in DS9 they made regular trips to and from the Gamma Quadrant via that wormhole.

I thought the gamma quadrant was still in the milky way galaxy, just way over the other end from where everyone else hangs out.

[Anonymous No.]

>>2751714
I remember that episode, I hated it.

The reason no intergalactic space travel is that our nearest galactic neighbor is The Sagittarius Dwarf galaxy and it's 70,000 light years away. At warp 9 that would take a little over 70 years to reach. The next closest one is the Larg Magellanic Cloud at 160,000 light years.

Don't think anyone's going anytime soon.

That one involved real weird shit and they ended up leaving our galaxy, passing through another, and ending up in a third where their imaginations came true.

Also there was a plot hole in that episode where a couple was fleeing from a lion that wasn't there. If that space created anything you imagined Picard would have seen the lion himself.

I didn't even notice that. Nice.

Also those episodes with "phased" people that can walk through matter and even get shoved through the bulkheads and into space, yet they walk on the fucking floor just fine. The one with Geordi and Ro comes to mind.

[Anonymous No.]

Even if the trekkie 3xperts disagree, I like Star Trek: Voyager the most of all series combined. Their vast trek through a quadrant unknown to the Federation, and mostly anyone but the borg in the alpha quadrant, while being hunted down and hated on, still trying to make love and piece.

Janeway-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaan~~~~

Voyager wasn't all bad but I really hate what the series has done to the Borg. In TNG they were the ultimate badasses. One single cube destroyed ~40(?) starships with ease. In VOY they went from mildly menacing to almost pathetic. But maybe that's just me.

[Anonymous No.]

>>2751825
Yes, this is true, the borg weren't that much of a threat anymore, but there were also stronger enemies, such as species 8405(goddamn I always forget that number).

Voyager had a few rough spots too, but I enjoyed it. It had a real feeling of just trying to survive while dealing with the borg and other monstrosities. I was glad that they didn't make Janeway into a total bitch or a slut or anything.

>>2751825
One episode I remember had Janeway from the future coming back to help their ship get back home faster.

She arms them with new torpedoes and such, and I could never get over the fact that out in deep space, with no extra resources or tech around they managed to completely fucking retrofit incredibly powerful new weapons and defenses onto their ship.

Not only that, but Why were the bombs more powerful anyway?

Because they're from the future?!

[Anonymous No.]

>>2751841

8472? They were cool, I was hoping that they would just let them loose to kill off the borg.

[Anonymous No.]

>>2751850
I'd have to agree but that was a slightly different matter. Starfleet had better weapons (one major reason the Souvereign class ships were created was the Borg threat), better tactics by that time and they had much more time to prepare. And they had THE PICARD. Remember, they still lost a fuckton of starships in that battle, including the admiral's ship and they might well have lost the battle, had he not intervened. And that still was only one cube.

Voyager on the other hand single handedly destroyed like half the collective and generally made asses out of the Borg on multiple occasions.

[Anonymous No.]

Voyager and TNG are the best.
Voyager should've wrapped up quicker. Things got bananas after too long.

[Anonymous No.]

>>2751863
> Why were the bombs more powerful anyway?
I don't remember the details but essentially they were based on technology even the Borg had not encountered yet, making it difficult for their defensive systems to adapt (I just realized how over used that word is).

Personally I liked it a lot that they wrote it that way. Kind of like Sisko and his people turn into war hardened veterans later in DS9. So why do they have to bash that incredibly cool ship so badly in every movie it's featured in? Damn.

The transphasic torpedo was a Starfleet weapon developed sometime in the 2380s in a future alternate timeline. It was designed specifically to handle the Borg threat, with input by Captain Kathryn Janeway and the crew of the USS Voyager.

In 2378, the point to which Admiral Janeway from the alternate timeline had traveled back in time, the admiral introduced Captain Janeway to this technology for use in reaching a Borg transwarp hub accessing the Borg transwarp network to return to Earth. When entering the nebula where the transwarp hub was located, one transphasic torpedo was enough to destroy a Borg cube. Despite the use of transphasic torpedoes to destroy two cubes, the Collective had not yet adapted to the torpedoes when Voyager fired at the interspatial manifolds in the transwarp network. (VOY: "Endgame")

According to the Pocket Books novel Greater than the Sum, transphasic torpedoes were in fact kept by Starfleet as the weapon of last resort to be deployed to starships only when all else had failed against the Borg. They were the one and only thing Starfleet knew the Borg had not yet adapted to and for that reason wanted to keep this ace in the hole for as long as possible.

The warhead technology of the torpedoes was also revealed in the novel. It is based on generating a destructive subspace compression pulse. Upon detonation the torpedo delivers the pulse in an asymmetric superposition of multiple phase states. Shields can only block one subcomponent of the pulse. The other subcomponents deliver the majority of the pulse to the target. Every torpedo has a different transphasic configuration, generated randomly by a dissonant feedback effect to prevent the Borg from predicting the configuration of the phase states.

[Mariya Shidou ♥ !n1oc4Ufb0A No.]

My personal favorite is really V'ger's appearance in the Shatner generation movies.

It sort of highlights the rise of the Borg, proving to most, if not all that the Borg was before humanity (or at least the primitive version of it.)

and that yes, Humanity in fact, gave rise to the single most powerful entity (other than the Q) in all of Star Trek history.

>>2751863
You do realize the existence of Nanotechnology, despite the lack of medical products, it can be generated by the doctor through replication from either the

'antimatter/matter replicator' (it creates food too)
'medical supply replicator' (may exist, I dunno, could be a different machine so that doctors could use them)

you know what? The ship by Endgame's time, has been outfitted with most advanced self adapted Borg Technology, if we think of it that way, Janeway's technology could have been born from Borg upgrades.

There is also the issue with supplies you asked. In an older episode of Star Trek TNG, Captain picard was stuck with the crew on a certain nebula space, they proceeded to enter the nebula and collect resources in the form of particles (science stuff blah blah)

Proof that in fact: "supplies can be generated by replicating it through some means of a giant replicator for ship parts"

is possible.

They were hallucinations. They weren't real.

Which is why when Picard rounded the corner he was like, "WTF are you doing? There's nothing there."

>>2751714
Which is kinda weird since warp fields were only affecting that region of space due to... whatever. It had lots of space traffic and that was the reason it had so much damage. There was really no need for concern outside of that region of space.
