[edit] Random musings

Guys... Keep your "Random Musings" to the Talk Page.

[edit] Missed it

Shouldn't it be mentioned, the transporter unit ionizer was damaged by the 'evil' Kirk's phraser blast (due to Spock nerve pinch). Or is this not in the episode. GoodDay 01:28, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I believe the same shot was used to illustrate both the phaser blast and and the transporter damage, although the latter was caused by the mystery ore originally. I think it's probably a continuity or editing error. CiudadanoGlobal (talk) 00:04, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia

Trivia belongs more properly under a trivia section, renaming that section notes is a little underhand. There's a sufeit of trivia in popular culture, perhaps we should think of trimming it a little? Alastairward 07:44, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shuttlecraft not used

Alright, now someone mentioned the FAQ about why a shuttle wasn't used, but isn't that innacurate seeing as on Star Trek Enterprise, they clearly do have shuttles and that series takes place a long time before TOS? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.31.107.155 (talk) 07:37, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

I assume what the writer of that comment meant is that the makers of TOS had not added the idea of the Enterprise even having a shuttle yet... 78.20.143.210 (talk) 02:16, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Obviously, it still begs the question of how do you explain it away in the context of the Star Trek universe why the shuttlecraft wasn't used.... CiudadanoGlobal (talk) 00:07, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
I would disagree. If the shuttlecraft hadn't been invented yet, then it's not relevant to this article. It's like asking why Tuvok wasn't seen in the background of that Star Trek movie; it wasn't invented yet that he served under Sulu. Sure, any number of reasonable explanations can be created for both incidents, but it'd fall under 'original research' which Wikipedia does not like. Lots42 (talk) 03:05, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Picture caption

Maybe it's my strange computer (it's very strange) but the caption for the image seems messed up. Lots42 (talk) 03:03, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
