why not "Class M planet" T-zero
They used the word Menchara (or similar) in Enterprise. Mintguy
- I think that's the Vulcan name.-Tango
[edit] ridiculous instances of class-m
I just noticed in an early episode of voyager they state "most of the asteroids around have a class m atmosphere". haha. do you know any other instances of high frequency of c-m? btw, that showed that class-m can characterize an atmposphere too, other than a planet--161.76.99.106 19:34, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "suitable for supporting life"?
Given that Star Trek does include a few life forms that have very different environmental requirements than humans (the Tholians, for example), shouldn't we say "humanoid life"? Redxiv 03:36, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
- I've changed it to "human-like life". I think that's slightly better than humanoid, as some humanoid species in ST are very odd - I remember at least one that needed breathing aparatus in a Class M atmosphere (they were blue, but I don't remember the name). --Tango 10:11, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Suggests
I've not seen the episode in question, but I daresay T'Pol does not in fact say something like
- "Oh, Class M. That was taken from Menshare-class I supposed. You naughty humans".
and instead is saying something like
- "The world is a Menshara-class planet, which is our alien term for habitable"
Can anyone confirm this? Morwen - Talk 14:28, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
- It's the episode with the hallucinogenic pollen (Strange New World (Enterprise episode), she berates the Enterprise crew for going straight down in a shuttle, noting that a Vulcan crew would use probes, etc, survey for a week, and then "If the planet is indeed Minshara class"... --Mnemeson 16:39, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
